    About this audiobook

    South Australia, 1919. Ross Grant has always felt like the black sheep of his wealthy Scottish family. An explorer at heart, he dreams of life on Waybell, their remote cattle station in Australia's last remaining wilderness, the Northern Territory.
    Then his brother Alastair is branded a deserter after going missing during the Great War and Ross is coerced into marrying Darcey Thomas, a woman he has never met, to save the family name. Disgusted with his manipulative family, he turns his back on his unwanted wife just hours after the ceremony, and heads to Waybell with no plans to return.
    But Ross has not counted on Darcey's determination to be his wife in more than just name. Nor did he anticipate meeting Maria, a young, part-Chinese woman who will capture his heart. And he certainly wasn't prepared for how this beautiful yet savage land will both captivate and destroy his soul…

    Nicole Alexander

    The author is a Single woman always looking for love in the wrong places, overly tied to her persona as an engineer, SCUBA Instructor, Sea Captain. 15 years swimming, diving, boating in the Caribbean teaching and taking my diving family to favorite watering holes leads to me buying a little bar on a remote desert island until hurricanes and a drastic change in the country’s leadership blow me back to the real-world where I can’t help but try to make the world a better place. Someone’s gotta do it. Long accused of overactive imagination, as I remain stuck home alone, first with COVID and now with lingering debilitating injuries and inexplicable down-for-the-count head pangs, I’m turning years of fun-loving life into books. What’s a girl to do, but journal and go Listen to Music, except when one can’t.
