When Kirsty Fox goes on the run to escape a crash-and-burn at work, she finds a family she didn' t know she needed. . . A witty and warm rural romance perfect for readers of Rachael Johns and Alissa Callen. They say change is as good as a holiday. Joey Miles is hoping so after leaving the city behind, his stockbroking career in flames, to embrace a brand-new challenge: farming. But while returning to his hometown somehow feels right, he' s got a long way to go to get back on his feet financially and the last thing he needs is the townsfolk meddling in his love life (or lack thereof). To the townsfolk of Clarence, Joey has always been the ultimate tragic romantic hero - and it' s time this hero had a happy ever after. . . But Kirsty Fox is only in Clarence to dig up information about a World War II figure from her family' s past - she has no intention of sticking around and finding out if Joey is as adorable as he seems. Kirsty doesn' t stick around. Ever. But when the locals of Clarence spy the chemistry between these two, a secret item gets added to the agenda of the next town committee meeting: matchmaking. This warm-hearted community will pull every trick in the book to show Joey and Kirsty everything they' ve unwittingly been searching for is right under their noses. . . What could possibly go wrong? Chicken wrangling, an adorable kid niece, a secret in a cow shed and a big-hearted town full of meddlesome wannabe poets. . . This new romance from Australian author Stella Quinn is a knockout.
Stella Quinn has had a love affair with books since she first discovered the alphabet. She lives in sunny Queensland now, but has lived in England, Hong Kong and Papua New Guinea. Boarding school in a Queensland country town left Stella with a love of small towns and heritage buildings (and a fear of chenille bedspreads and meatloaf!) and that is why she loves writing rural romance. Stella is a keen scrabble player, she' s very partial to her four kids and anything with four furry feet, and she is a mediocre grower of orchids. An active member of Romance Writers of Australia, Stella has won their Emerald, Sapphire and Valerie Parv Awards, and finaled in their R*BY Romantic Book of the Year award. You can find and follow Stella Quinn via her website.
