Meg is thirty-two, single, and sensible enough to know better. When she takes a job teaching yoga at Casuarina Prison, she expects a steady income, not an infatuation. But then she reads the name on the roll call - Scott Clarke - and nothing is quite the same again.
The newspapers call him a monster. A serial killer, a man with no capacity for remorse. Meg sees something different: dark eyes, a broken spine, and a quietness that doesn't match the headlines. So she does the one thing she shouldn't - she writes him a letter.
What begins as letters about yoga poses becomes something neither of them expected: tenderness, honesty, and a connection that doesn't care about prison walls.
Set against the sun-bleached suburbs of Perth and the fraught hope of rehabilitation, When Love Heals the Heart is a bold and unflinching story about what we risk when we choose to see the human in someone the world has discarded - and whether love alone is ever enough to save us.
