The Cattle Baron's Bride
THE CITY GIRL -- AND THE RUGGED OUTBACK CATTLE BARON
The wilderness at the heart of the Australian Northern Territory was no place for delicate city beauty Samantha Langdon. Cattleman Ross Sunderland wouldn't have agreed to act as guide if he'd known Samantha had signed up for the trip. Their one meeting had sparked an overwhelming attraction and, determined to resist her, loner Ross had vowed to avoid her at all costs.
Sam could see in his hard, handsome face that Ross didn't want her along. But they were seduced by the danger and primitive beauty around them, and raw instinct took over as their passion could no longer be denied....

About the author
Margaret Way
622 books165 followersMargaret Way was born and educated in the river city of Brisbane, Australia. Before her marriage she was a well-known pianist, teacher, vocal coach and accompanist, but her hectic musical career came to a halt when her son was born and the demands of motherhood dictated a change of pace.
On a fortuitous impulse she decided to try her hand at romance writing and was thrilled when Mills & Boon accepted her first effort, Time of the Jacaranda, which they published less than a year later in 1970; a feat that brought tears to her father's eyes. Some seventy odd books have followed resulting in a loyal readership whose letters provide a source of support and encouragement. A driving force in all her writing has been the promotion of her much loved country, Australia. She delights in bringing it alive for her readers; its people, way of life, environment, flora and fauna. Her efforts so far have not excited official recognition, but she expects one day she will be awarded the "Order of Australia."
Her interests remain with the arts. She still plays the piano seriously, but her "top Cs" have gone. She is still addicted to collecting antiques and paintings and browsing through galleries. She now lives within sight and sound of beautiful Moreton Bay and its islands, inspiration for some of her books. Her house is full of books, spectacular plants, Chinese screens and pots. She is devoted to her garden and spends much time "directing the design and digging and providing cold drinks and chocolates."

Ya lo veía venir.
Dos hermanos que han intentado seguir adelante se encuentran su pareja ideal casualmente en otros hermanos. Buscan romance en las áridas tierras de australias, entre cocodrilos y zancudos. Es una historia linda, con un psicópata bien metido y una buena reflexión sobre el maltrato doméstico.

The chemistry in this one of OFF THE CHARTS. Phyew! I first started loving Margaret Way for her melodramatic, family centric plots. Here she flexes some serious muscle by writing some of the hottest sexual tension I've read in yonks.
