The third book in this series and we are off to the beautiful Byron Bay Hinterland to meet beautiful re-head Flame Rhys, mother of Stella (book 1) and Jeannie, a wanderer who has never settled down and has been let down many times by the men in her life but now she is sworn off men forever, that is until she meets Ross, the hermit.

Flame has been living alone by a creek in her caravan since Grady ran off, the rains have come and when she arrives home her caravan has been moved, shocked and stunned she is not happy when she finds that the hermit who lives in the hose nearby has taken it, their first meeting is a fiery one.

Ross has been widowed for a while now and lives a quiet life on the farm but when he meets the person who has been staying on his land after he rescues her caravan things start to change for Ross she brings him back to life but convincing the beautiful Flame that she is good enough for him is not any easy task.

Ross and Flame have a sensual pull towards each other, neither were looking for love but it found them, their journey to a HEA is fraught with ups and downs mainly because of Flame’s hesitancy after all she has been through, but Ross never gives up deciding that Flame is the woman for him and together they find the love they both deserve, the ending is fun, beautiful, bright and colourful, I did enjoy this story, loved the setting and Flame is fabulous.

My thanks to the author for my copy to read and review
