Outback Magic
Outback Queensland Romance #5
Rhonda Forrest
Reviewed by Helen
Yes this is book five, but I have not read any of the others in the series and it can be read as a standalone and I loved it, I loved the descriptions of the outback, the colours the feel that Rhonda Forrest bought to life in her descriptions and I loved Penny and Todd, come along for an adventure with them.
Penny is in her late twenties she has been through a couple of not so good relationships but in her heart she knows she wants to travel and Australia is the place she wants to start and when her cousin Robert wants to join her they start the planning on the trip of a lifetime. When one Penny’s uncles learns of her trip he asks her to take a letter and locate a long lost, estranged brother and hand it to him, they learn that Oscar is living in a small town in outback Queensland and this then is their first stop after a few days enjoying Sydney.
A long train trip with a stopover sees Penny meet Todd and he offers them a lift to Matfield and to meet her Uncle Oscar for the first time, what is in that letter shocks them all but this trip also opens up a whole new world for Penny and sees chemistry spark between her and Todd, could this trip, letter delivering be fate, could this be the place that Penny will make her home with Todd?
Could the outback magic see them come together in a long-lasting love? This is a beautiful romantic story that pulled me in from page one the start of an adventure, a journey to true love and this is one that I would highly recommend, it left me smiling.
My thanks to the author for my copy to read and review.
