Story
When best-selling author, 29-year-old Hayley Stevens, walked in on her husband, Paul, and her best friend in bed together, she knew her life would never be the same again. One year later, Hayley stowed her last bag in her much-loved Audi Coupe and said good-bye to the city. She was excited to be heading west to Lochway, a small colonial village sitting on the beautiful Macdonald River. Wanting peace and quiet, Hayley had impulsively bought a cosy sandstone cottage there surrounded by lush rose gardens, with a small overseer's cottage - ideal for a writer's retreat.

Expecting him to be trouble, Paige is anything but welcoming toward their visitor - except she can’t help noticing that, for a city boy, Tait seems unexpectedly at home on the land. And he asks a lot of questions....

Publisher's Summary
From the best-selling author of North Star and If Wishes Were Horses.
Poppy Abbott seems to have it all. Bright, successful and attractive, she lives in a beautiful apartment with sweeping views of Sydney. However, since the recent death of her beloved grandmother, she's been struggling to come to terms with her grief.
When sorting through her grandmother’s belongings she uncovers some love letters and an old diary with the name ‘Maggie Abbott’ on the front, detailing her romance with a young soldier. Maggie’s name is unfamiliar to her, and the last pages of the diary are ripped out, leaving Poppy at a loss of how this long-forgotten love story ended.
Drawn back to her grandmother's home in the country, Poppy begins to question whether what she always thought made her happy truly does, and as she learns more about her grandmother’s past, Poppy’s own love story begins to unfold.

Another really enjoyable story
After listening to 11 of Karly Lane's books (into the 12th now), I am still looking for the next. I think Melle Stewart is a wonderful narrator and I will be looking for other books she has narrated just to enjoy her style as well.
