About the book
Outback men live by their own rules...
Australian Designer of the Year! Alida Rose should have felt elated with the recognition. She'd worked hard to achieve such success. Gareth Morgan was her past. And yet five years had not diminished the impact of the charismatic man nor the painful memories.
A renewed relationship with Gareth was tempting. But this time Alida vowed she'd show this outback man she'd be a ruthless with him as he'd been with her.
