Timeless Land

by RachaelTreasure (Author)

Synopsis

Rosie Highgrove-Jones grows up hating her double-barrelled name. She dreams of riding out over the wide plains of the family property, working on the land. Instead she's stuck writing the social pages of the local paper. Then the horrible death of her fiance sparks a series of shocking revelations for Rosie and her family. As she tries to put her life back together, Rosie throws herself into researching the haunting true story of a 19th century Irish stockman, who came to Australia and risked his all for a tiny pup and a wild dream. Is it just coincidence when Rosie meets a sexy Irish stockman of her own? And will Jim help her realise her deepest ambition - or will he break her heart? "Timeless Land" moves effortlessly between the present and the past to reveal a simple yet hard-won truth - that both love and the land are timeless.
