AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Isabelle Simpson longs to take over the family farm, but her ailing father is locked in a tragedy of the past and won't give her the chance she deserves. The stand-off between them threatens to tear the family apart.

Izzy decides to break free and make a new start for herself - even though that means leaving the handsome Will Timmins and all her mixed emotions about him behind.

But when hardship falls on the farm again, Izzy returns with an even greater determination to resolve the family feud. As she gathers with her friends in the close community under the shade of the gum-tree tavern, confessions are made, long-held secrets are revealed and hearts are set free.' (From the publisher's website.)
