About the book
Outback Mistress - Lindsay Armstrong Olivia was shocked to find a gorgeous stranger unconscious on her property - especially as he'd lost his memory and only knew his name was Benedict! Equally disturbing was the powerful chemistry between Olivia and her unexpected guest as she nursed him back to health...And Olivia soon regretted her kindness when she discovered Ben was about to buy her home. Olivia loved Wattle Creek but it seemed the only way to keep it was to accept Ben's proposition to become his mistress! Outback Baby - Barbara Hannay Max Jardine always behaves like a bossy big brother to Gemma Brown. Except for one night five years ago - a night they have never talked about since. But now Gemma is moving into Max's remote Outback home to help him care for a friend's baby...Seeing stubborn, gorgeous Max with a baby in his arms confuses Gemma - almost as much as it intrigues Max to see Gemma all grown up! And tension mounts as they confront the past... Wedding at Waverley Creek - Jessica Hart Jack Henderson was impossibly handsome, dangerously charming and way out of Ellie Walker's league! Women like her beautiful, outgoing sister were more the type to capture his attention... but now Jack had noticed Ellie! Jack needed a wife, someone to care for his baby daughter. Ellie was going to have her dream wedding. But would she ever be anything more to Jack than a convenient bride?
