What to expect
When a series of threats force fiercely independent lawyer Jemma Di Angelis to step away from her high-flying career, the last place she wants to be is Settlers Bridge. But with her security threatened and her routine in tatters, she has little choice. She'll stay just long enough to plan her next move.
Laid-back local farmer Hamish MacKenzie has a roguish charm, a bad-boy reputation and an artistic soul he keeps carefully hidden. From the moment he meets Jemma, sparks fly—he sees an uptight city slicker and she sees a shallow womaniser.
But when Jemma finds herself in real danger, Hamish reveals a different side—unexpectedly gentle, infuriatingly protective and nothing like she imagined. As tangled secrets surface and loyalties are tested, Jemma must decide whether justice always follows the rules—and whether she's willing to risk giving her heart to a man who has made a habit of keeping his hidden.
The Ironbark Promise is about the courage it takes to trust love—and ourselves—enough to discover where we truly belong.
