This is a beautiful story filled with emotion, romance and fun, the setting is just awesome and the characters that live in Elsie Creek are so good they are real people, people who become friends they make you laugh and shed a tear, this is the second book in this series and I loved getting to know Verily and Alex, I hope you join in the fun of their story that will leave you with a big smile.

Verily has returned to the town that she was born in, but not spent much time here, Elsie Creek in the Northern Territory, she has travelled the world playing softball and is a champion player, but a terrible accident changes all of that, she comes to stay with her Aunty Molly, not sure of what she is trying to find, never thinking that she will find love and such happiness when she meets Alex.

Alex is managing Molly’s mango farm while trying to become a brew master and create a special craft beer and driving big road trains for his father, he wants so much to follow his dream but is feeling pressured to follow in his father’s footsteps. When the gorgeous Verily arrives at the farm, there is big changes in the way he thinks, she is so good for him, they become fast friends and he falls head over heels for her.

This story is filled with witty banter that had me laughing out loud at times, but it also has the most beautiful romance as Verily and Alex open up and find their wings to do the things that they most want to do, seeing them come alive together had me turning the pages, MS Rowe this is a beautiful story that has all of the feels that a fabulous romance should have, this one has left me feeling very happy, I do hope that you will pick this one up and enjoy your trip to the Territory as I did the descriptions of the region, wildlife and plants are amazing, and I really want to visit Cecil and all of the friends I have made in Elsie Creek, thank you.
