Book excerpt: A story of red dust and romance, of strength and dreams, discovered in the unlikeliest of places--the great Australian outback. Lena Todd is a city girl who thrives on cocktails and cappuccinos so when her boss announces he's sending her to the outback to join a construction team, her world is turned upside down. Lena's new accommodation: an aluminium box called a dongar. Her new social network: 350 men. Her daily foot attire: steel-capped boots. Unfortunately, Lena can't refuse. Mistakes from the past are choking her confidence and she needs to do something to right those wrongs and prove herself. Going to a remote community might just be the place to do that, if only tall, dark, and obnoxious Dan didn't seem so determined to stand in her way.
