The bestselling Australian author of Paycheque and Nowhere Else returns with a story of dreams, expectations and endurance.Damien McAllister is a man on the brink. Spending long, hard days on a farm he has no affection for, and nights ignoring the criticisms of his mother, Damien can no longer remember what he's living for. But in a small town like Wattle Creek, there are few people to turn to - and Damien learned long ago to keep his problems to himself.Until Jacqueline Havelock, a young psychologist escaping her own issues, arrives fresh from the city and makes Damien question everything he has known about himself...and ignites a spark in his lonely heart.Soon Damien is daring to ask for more than an ordinary life, and can glimpse the possibility of happiness. Will this accidental farmer dare to fulfil the long-forgotten legacy of his father and find peace in the arms of the newcomer? Or will the ghosts of their pasts threaten the fragile new lives they've just begun to build?`This is a very fine story, well-handled, and does not avoid the hard issues.' The Weekly Times
