Synopsis "The River Gum Cottage (in English)"
A heart-warming rural romance from the best-selling author of The Wattle Seed Inn. 'The River Gum Cottage establishes Leonie Kelsall firmly in the stable of rural fiction writers - just the right amount of romance, community and intrigue.' Rachael Johns, author of the bestselling Outback SecretsSometimes, home isn't a place: it's a feeling. Lucie Tamberlani is poised to take over management of her family farm in South Australia, but when her relationship collapses she flees to raise her daughter alone. Four years later, summoned back to the farm after her father's death, Lucie must find a way to deal with grief and guilt-and the betrayal that forced her away. Jack Schenscher is doing it tough: caring for his aged grandparents and managing their wheat farm as well as his own acreage leaves him with little time and even less money. And now, with the death of his business partner, Jack fears losing all he has worked towards. Neither Lucie nor Jack are looking for love; each are facing their own realities. Yet together, will they discover that home is wherever the heart is? Praise for Leonie Kelsall: 'Warm, witty and brimming with big-hearted country characters, renovations and romance.
