Amanda Davenport is an impoverished companion to an elderly lady living in Australia. When the lady dies, Amanda is desperate to get back to England. In need of money, so she takes a position of Governess to three children living with their father in the Outback.
Patrick O'Reilly loves the wilderness of the Outback. He's not happy that his sister has sent yet another English Governess to care for his children. He finds Amanda so rigid and unbendable, he's not sure she is what the children need. But as Patrick gets to know Amanda, he finds there is a woman ready to break out of her shell. And Patrick wants to be the man to help her.
This was a very satisfying historical romance set in Australia. Candice Proctor gives us lots of descriptions of the country and its people. You feel like you're there. Her characters are very well-drawn and easy to root for. My rating: 4 Stars.
