A suitable bride?
Cattleman Fletcher Hardy welcomed a diversion like Ally Fraser during his tedious business trip in Melbourne. Until he found himself falling for her!
He'd learned that city women were unsuited to Outback life when his Parisian mother fled their cattle station. Ever since, he'd vowed his bride had to be born and bred in the bush. So when news came that he'd become the guardian of his four-year-old godson, he returned to Wallaroo, intending to forget Ally for good.
He hadn't bargained on Ally turning up at the homestead as little Connor's nanny, determined to prove she could survive the Outback-and make the perfect wife and mother!
