Bay of Islands - The Prequel

By: Swan, Casey

Mary wants to buy the Oasis milk bar where she works, and then the newsagent and tobacconists next door, and convert them into a modern caf . Hamish is younger than she is, and they've gone out together a few times, but he doesn't seem interested in helping her with her dream.

Then Hamish's father Angus has trouble getting his sheep from Moturoa Island to the sale yards at Kerikeri, and the idea of a sheep ferry is born. But Hamish is only twenty-two, with limited funds. How will he ever make his idea a reality?

Lisa has set her heart on Sandy, the oldest son of the successful Shaw family. Sandy doesn't even know she exists, but Lisa is a determined young woman.

Will Mary meet someone with the same ambitions she has? Is the idea of a sheep ferry a feasible one? And what magic will Lisa weave to make Sandy see the many fine qualities she possesses?
