Another beautiful story in this series, this one set in the beautiful Whitsunday Islands and Ireland two totally different climates and one Aussie hero and an Irish heroine, come along and get to know them and see how they get to a gorgeous HEA with a few ups and downs along the way, I am sure you will love it as much as I did.

Lachie, grew up on Stradbroke Island with his loving parents, who we met in the first book with his siblings his life is filled with love, surf, fishing the best life, he is now living on Emerald Island in the Whitsundays an island the family owns it is a holiday resort and he loves his work and life, he likes thing to run smoothly and easily, but when an Irish backpacker arrives on the island for work, Lachie feels himself falling for this beautiful woman, has he found love?

Kat also comes from a loving family in Galway, Ireland she has a very close relationship with her Granny and is encouraged by her to travel, to visit Australia, off she goes with a ring and hopes for a fabulous trip that is if she can stay away from some of Australia’s scary animals and insects and the burning sun. Arriving on Emerald Island she starts working in the bars and kitchens and cleaning, always willing to work but then she meets the boss Lachie and there is an instant attraction but an overheard conversation and a couple of cousins arriving put a spanner in the works and Kat is shocked that Lachie has trust issues.

Will they work things out between them, the love is there but these are two different people, and trusting is not always easy but time spent away makes the heart grow fonder they say and when Kat goes home, to Ireland will Lachie follow?

I loved this one so much and cannot highly recommend it, a beautifully told story of love, caring trust it had me turning the pages, smiling cheering them on, I felt every emotion that they went through and the settings are just gorgeous, I loved my trip to both parts of the world, so many fabulous characters that added to the story and catching up with Evie and Chris was fabulous, a must read, thank you Rhonda for another awesome tory I look forward to more in this series.

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