Princess In The Outback - Barbara Hannay

Isabella Martineau is tired of being a princess — it’s time she broke free and lived by her own rules, not by royal decree. Freedom beckons in the Australian outback, where Isabella meets rugged stranger Jack Kingsley-Laird, who quickly discovers that her cool, regal exterior hides a wild and adventurous woman! But will their mutual attraction be enough to bridge the gap between their two different worlds?

Nurse’s Outback Temptation - Amy Andrews

When nurse Chelsea lands in Australia, her plan is simple: to leave the heart-breaking reason why she can’t call London home anymore on the plane and start over. Yet, when Chelsea is introduced to far-too-handsome flight doctor Aaron, it’s clear that her ‘new start, no romance’ vow is already at risk! All Chelsea wants is a summer free from her painful past…but could a summer of love with Aaron be what she really needs?

Outback Surgeon - Leah Martyn

Gorgeous surgeon and Sydney socialite Nick Tonnelli abandons the glitterati to work for a month alongside outback GP Abbey Jones. When he makes his interest clear, Abbey is confused — would the glamorous Nick really want a relationship with her?

About the Author

Barbara Hannay lives in North Queensland where she and her writer husband have raised four children. Barbara loves life in the north where the dangers of cyclones, crocodiles and sea stingers are offset by a relaxed lifestyle, glorious winters, World Heritage rainforests and the Great Barrier Reef. Besides writing, Barbara enjoys reading, gardening and planning extensions to accommodate her friends and her extended family. Amy is a multi-award winning, USA Today bestselling author who has written over forty contemporary romances for several Harlequin imprints. She's an Aussie who loves good books, fab food, great wine and frequent travel - preferably all four together. She lives by the ocean with her husband of twenty-nine years. To keep up with her latest releases and giveaways, sign up for her newsletter at www.amyandrews.com.au/newsletter.html  Leah Martyn comes from a long line of storytellers and finds writing comes to her as naturally as breathing. As well as her medical romances, she has written and published short stories. She insists her characters must have a sense of humour! She loves vacationing in Queensland and browsing in bookshops is high on her list of enjoyable things to do. Consequently, each year around Christmas, she breaks the budget, buying an armful of new releases to read over the holidays.
