Just when Taylor had found her dream man, her mum decides to go and visit her parents. Taylor doesn’t feel comfortable letting her mum drive all the way from Sydney to Settler’s Bridge. So Taylor decides she’ll go with her and camp.

However, when they get there, Taylor hadn’t envisioned this camping gig to be so hard. And the dreams she’s having are keeping her awake for a long time afterwards.

When they return to Sydney, an upheaval not just in her home life, but romance wise allows her to return to Settler’s Bridge again and try to start afresh in her studies. But those dreams return, as well as the landlord to her grandparents homestead. Now Taylor needs to be able to sort out the fact to fiction of what’s occurring in her life.

A fabulous story of how the first settlers are leaving the legacy of how they survived and bought the future to the now residents of the land.

Loved this story, an intrigueing love story spanning from the 1800's to modern day. Modern day a young lady is, gifted a piece of jewellery, by her grandparents. From this she starts to dream of a family, and their heartaches from the 1800's. She becomes confused, why is she dreaming about this family, whom she knows nothing about, all the while trying to come to terms with her parents, separating. As well trying to figure out why she is having the dreams, she is studying medicine, comes to a conclusion it has to be some form of dejavu. A brilliant story of incorporating past and present, to construct a love story. Enjoyed the descriptions of the area, where the story is based. Outback SA. One could almost smell the wattle with the descriptions. Another beautifully written story. I love the way you gained the background to write the love story. All in all a great book. Keep them coming.
