Tilly Rae Dunn is a preacher's kid and a runaway. She experiences betrayal, abandonment, and loneliness and fights to rebuild a life in Santa Rosa, New Mexico at a roadside diner, The Rainbow Cafe. She will meet an array of characters along the way like Francisco "Cisco" Ramirez, Hattie Mae Winslow, Buck Henry, and the irrepressible Jimbo Olmstead.
This is a short ride on a long road to finding a place and way to belong.
