Julie is so swept away with a new love, she is not going to return home anytime soon…

Julie has been widowed for some time and has settled into her simple routines in her English village florist shop. She is content and happy enough as she keeps busy after losing her husband and her twin sons are managing the farm in East Anglia that they once owned together.

Then one day, a mysterious, suave man arrives in the village and enchants her with charm and charisma. Unexpectedly, Julie finds herself smitten with Stephen and his advances and enjoys a selfish romance she has not experienced since her husband passed away. Her twin sons do not trust this new man occupying her time and having influence over their mother.

Stephen convinces Julie that a break across the globe may serve them best to enjoy their newfound love and so they arrive in Sydney to begin a touring holiday that may become something more but Julie suspects things with Stephen are not all they appear. 

Julie suddenly finds herself alone and in dire circumstances as Stephen becomes someone that she must fear as his past comes forth to reveal his truth. She escapes his attack to hide away from him in Queensland and in hope of safety.

Will Stephen find her and kill her before his past finds him?

“Gillian Wells has masterfully designed a plot and entrancing characters that once again bring a romance to the edge of thrills and fears… What a wonderful author… Love this book!” Evelyn, Indie Book reviewer
