Two city women – a century apart – find love and adventure with rugged men in the Queensland outback.<br /> <br />Two love stories; two parallel lives; two destinies.<br /> <br />Set in the 19th and 21st centuries, Heather Garside's debut novel is a passionate rural romance of love and its consequences.<br /> <br />Shelley and Emma are separated by time but bound by a dark secret to a place called Breakaway Creek.<br /> <br />Betrayed by her long-term boyfriend, Shelley Blake has fled the city to return to her home town. Her interest in a photograph of her great-great-grandparents is piqued by her family's reticence about the mystery couple, and a search for answers takes her to the cattle station Breakaway Creek.<br /> <br />Here she meets Luke Sherman, a man embroiled in the bitter ending of his marriage and a heart-breaking separation from his two small boys.<br /> <br />Shelley resists an instant attraction to Luke, as neither is ready for a new relationship.<br /> <br />And, while Luke struggles to reclaim his children, Shelley uncovers the truth about her ancestors, Alex and Emma.<br /> <br />A story of racial bigotry and a love that transcends all obstacles takes the reader back to the pioneering days of the 1890s.
