Shaken after a tragic incident in the city hospital where she worked, Daniella figures that the small north-west Queensland cattle town of Ryders Ridge is just the place to hide. Caring and dedicated, she quickly wins the trust of her patients, and the attention of handsome station heir, Mark Walker.

As their relationship grows, Daniella begins to think she could make a new life for herself in Ryders. But country towns have their own problems. Under the big outback sky, Daniella discovers that the local rumour mill can threaten both friendships and careers, and that like the city, Ryders Ridge also has secrets.

Mark, too, is a complication – as good as they are together, how can a doctor maintain a practice and live on a cattle station? Just as Daniella considers running away for a second time, a terrible accident forces her to face the secret she left behind in Brisbane, and risk losing Mark forever.

About the Author

Charlotte Nash knows first-hand what she is writing about, having worked alongside doctors as a medical student in rural Queensland. She was born in England and grew up riding horses in the Redland Shire of Brisbane. After completing degrees in mechanical engineering and medicine, she fell into eclectic jobs, amongst which she counts the best as building rockets, traversing the Pilbara mines and scrambling over shiploaders in Newcastle. These days, she is an editor, writer and researcher. RYDERS RIDGE is her first novel; her future novels will also be set in rural and outback Australia. Charlotte took part in the QWC/Hachette Australia Manuscript Development Program in 2010.
