'Abigail Pheeney is a young prostitute when she meets and marries Robert Forrester. She thinks her circumstances have changed, but Robert is the cast off son of a wealthy grazier, a devil-may-care young man whose less than honest ways cause no end of trouble.
'Robert's not the only problem. Abbie's past is bound to catch up with her, and when they do, she becomes caught up in a series of fast-paced events that will change her life forever. Torn between loyalty to her unrepentant husband and a growing attraction to the local policeman hunting Robert, Abbie has to walk a fine line while trying to break free of her past and find the true love she's always dreamed of.
'Set in central Queensland during the gold rush of the 1860s, The Heart Divided is a stirring tale of love and life, sweeping us along with Abbie as she fights what she was in order to become what she's always wanted to be.' (Author's blurb)
