Story
Country-girl Cressida Knight fills her days with her farm, a mischievous pet bull called Reggie and her volunteer emergency services work. The busier she keeps, the less she thinks about the cowboy who left her behind. She's convinced the small-town Woodlea grapevine that she's moved on, but now it's time to move on for real. Champion bull rider Denham Rigby shares Cressy's deep love for the land, and all he's ever wanted was to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Cressy through life. But three years ago a dark family secret left him no choice but to run.

Story
Peony flower farmer Clancy Parker was born and bred in the Australian high country. Small-town Bundilla is the only place she will ever truly belong, even if staying means remaining alone. The man she'd loved is long gone, and single men are as rare as a summer snowfall. As soon as he could, street artist Heath MacBride escaped his complicated family and traded mountain peaks for city concrete. Now a commission to paint a mural on Bundilla's water tower brings him home.

Paige Quinn will let nothing and no one distract her from caring for her wheelchair-bound father Connor, or fighting for her remote drought-stricken property Banora Downs - least of all a surprise farm-stay guest named Tait Cavanaugh, whose smooth words are as lethal as his movie-star smile. 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....

Charity Farrugia is too sensible to believe she'll find love in a paddock. After all, at thirty-four, she's the one with the secure career and the mortgage. The one who took on the job of raising her two sisters when Mom got sick. Everyone knows she's the practical one. The responsible one. Yeah, the boring one.

Publisher's Summary
A warm-hearted and touching story about recovering after trauma, love and community. A new Woodlea rural romance by best-selling Australian author Alissa Callen.
Healing doesn't just take time, it takes courage....
The scars country vet Ella Quinlivan hides are not solely on the outside. Men are off limits. She fills her world with her friends, work and the colourful community of small town Woodlea. She also becomes custodian of a sandstone cottage of an elderly friend whose teenage daughter went missing two decades ago.
With a broken marriage behind him, Saul Armstrong is determined to recapture his dreams by bringing American bison to the Australian bush. He intends to stick to his side of the high wire fence that divides his farm from his distracting new neighbour, Ella.
When Saul calls out Ella for a bison emergency, she isn't just thrown out of her comfort zone by dealing with an unfamiliar animal. Slow-smiling and guarded Saul stirs emotions she'd long ago discarded.
As the summer heat parches the landscape and dust obscures the sun, hidden secrets come to light. Not only will Ella and Saul be tested, the connection forged between them will be threatened. Will love be enough to guarantee their freedom, or will fear continue to dictate the direction of their lives?

Narrator was rather irritating trying to fake each voice
The book itself was a great story.
I had to stop some chapters and read the book I have in print though as the narrator put on voices for each character and a female trying to imitate multiple different female roles, a small child, the elderly as well as multiple male voices was terrible to listen to. Felt more like I was in a nursery listening to a kindy teacher doing voices for a bunch of toddlers.
Book itself was very enjoyable, however I definitely prefer to read it than listen to it read as it was.
