Publisher's Summary

When Mara Gregory receives a letter from the father whom she believed to have died when she was a child, her world is turned upside down. Aaron Buchanan only discovered that he had a daughter a couple of years ago and now he's desperate to play a part in her life. In the face of her mother's opposition, Mara arranges to meet her father and his family. In a breath-taking corner of the world, amid a waterfront community on Australia's west coast, will Mara find him the disappointment that her mother promises? And when Australia brings another man into her life, she's faced with some huge decisions and some heartrending choices.

Don't bother, it will ruin your day!

I have enjoyed many of Anna Jacobs' stories, even if the characters are predictable and there is always: a brutal male, a loving father, a harridan of a mother, an adopted child, a simpering, stubborn pregnant woman and most infuriatingly of all, a villain who hurts and harasses folk with virtually no legal consequences. Well this one has all these in a sappy plot thrown in to wash it down. Possibly the worst aspect was the narration by someone incapable of mimicking a Southern Counties accent. Very hard to swallow.
