About This Book
She's hiding from heartache. He's a hustler hiding more…
Floriculturist Jordi uses her shyness as a shield to keep everyone at a distance—except for family. And Luke. The sun-soaked, stunning Luke who hustles her for free flowers to feed his family's pet water buffalo.
From a landmark family that lost its legacy, Luke aims for a new future by entering the country's richest fishing competition, and he's trying to sweet-talk Jordi to watch over his mischievous grandmother.
Yet the more time they spend together, the closer they become, as their buried desires ignite. But Luke is keeping a secret from Jordi that will crush her.
With a million dollars on the line, the fate of more than their hearts hangs in the balance…
Set in the stunning outback, this touching tale of friends, foes, and buffaloes shows how fate has a way of helping everyone find their version of happily ever after—no matter the cost.
If you enjoy swoon-worthy rural romances set in a small-town, with a touch of family drama, action and adventure, then you'll love this latest stand-alone addition to the Elsie Creek series.
