A Country Life/The Road to Hope/Red Dust Dancer/Winter Beginn

Description

A collection of uplifting stories about new beginnings from three Australian authors. The Road to Hope by Rachael Johns After watching the man she's always loved marry someone else, nurse Lauren Simpson is finally ready to pack it in and leave Hope Junction. Until her resolve is tested when the hot new locum doctor arrives in town. The attraction is instant, but both Lauren and Tom have their reasons for not being all in. Everyone else can see how perfect they are together, but just what will it take for them to admit this to themselves? Red Dust Dancer by Eva Scott With her career as a Parisian showgirl at an end, Tamsin Cooper is finally ready to take up her inheritance: a cattle farm in Queensland. But Uncle Ted had a secret and Tamsin's sexy neighbour and new friend, Angus Walker, helped him keep it. Faced with losing her farm and her heart, Tamsin returns to what she knows best: dancing. But even with her new dance school, can she shimmy past lies and betrayal to find her place in this country town? Winter Beginnings by Elise K. Ackers Alice Jaye desperately needs her new job at Foster's Garage, but she's not interested in becoming close with the tight-knit staff and its all-knowing clientele. History has taught her that secrecy equals survival; her and her son's security depends on Alice carefully compartmentalising her life. But there's something special about kind, attractive, available Dean Foster. The more Alice and Dean work together, and the more their kids bond, the harder it becomes for Alice to keep her worlds from colliding.
