Beschreibung

A charming new rural romance from the best-selling author of The River Gum Cottage. The owner of Settlers Bridge cafe, Ploughs & Pies, Samantha is short on confidence and big on regrets. Marrying young to fill the void left by an unhappy childhood, she still works in the same small town where she grew up, too filled with self-doubt and insecurity to ever risk spreading her wings. But, with the end of her abusive marriage, will she be forced to surrender everything that forms the foundations so important to her? Urbane city restauranteur, Pierce DeAngelis, knows what it is to have everything ripped away. A crooked business partner has destroyed his lifetime dream. However, a chance encounter with Samantha is enough to reignite his passion, and together they concoct a plan for a new destination restaurant aboard a paddle wheeler. But, with their personalities like oil and water, will old hurts and hidden truths destroy the new business before it's afloat?

Autor

Raised initially in a tiny coastal town on the Fleurieu Peninsula, then on a wheat and sheep farm in the Murraylands, Léonie is a South Australian country girl through and through. Growing up riding horses and motorbikes (and, possibly, her parents' nerves!) she developed a love of reading before she reached primary school, thanks to her parents' TV ban. Léonie entertained a brief fantasy of moving to the big city (well, Adelaide!), but within months the lure of the open spaces and big sky country summoned her home. Now she splits her time between the stark, arid beauty of the family farm at Pallamana, and her home and counselling practice in the lush Adelaide Hills. Leonie is the bestselling author of The Farm at Peppertree Crossing, The Wattle Seed Inn, The River Gum Cottage and The Willow Tree Wharf.
