The Ironbark Promise

By Leonie Kelsall

A page-turning new rural romance from the bestselling author of The Path Through the Coojong Trees.

When a series of threats force fiercely independent lawyer Jemma Di Angelis to step away from her high-flying career, the last place she wants to be is Settlers Bridge. But her retreat will be brief; she's only staying long enough to plan her next move.

Laid-back local farmer Hamish MacKenzie has a roguish charm, a bad-boy reputation and an artistic soul he keeps carefully hidden. From the moment he meets Jemma, sparks fly-he sees an uptight city slicker and she sees a shallow womanizer.

But when Jemma finds herself in real danger, Hamish reveals a different side - unexpectedly gentle, infuriatingly protective and nothing like she imagined. As loyalties are tested, Jemma must decide if she's willing to risk her heart with a man who has made a habit of keeping his hidden.
