Publisher's Summary:
The best-selling author of Nowhere Else and Wattle Creek brings us a story of overcoming challenges and finding your inner strength.
When Emily Oliphant married John Stratten, she thought it was the beginning of an exciting new adventure - standing shoulder to shoulder with the most eligible farmer in the district and pitching in to build a thriving agricultural business. Three years later, however, Emily sees her marriage for what it is - a loveless tie to a callous man.
When John's cruelty reaches new heights, Emily is forced to move out, braving both her husband's wrath and her mother's glaring disapproval. With the encouragement of her new friend, Barbara, Emily moves into an abandoned property and takes on the mammoth task of turning the unloved house into a home. In the process she discovers a new business venture, meets new friends and finds an inner strength she never knew she had.
Emily's newfound confidence is soon tested, though, when the owners of the property make her a tempting offer. Will she risk everything and invest in the ramshackle house that has finally given her a sense of purpose? Or will Emily listen to the views of the community - and the voice of her mother - and go back to continue on the road more travelled?

A good snapshot of life in a small country town
This book was a good portrayal of life in a small country town. Believable characters especially how narrow minded some could be. I grew up knowing of farmers that would drive their prize ram in the front seat, whilst the wife sat in the back, and yes the CWA is really like that and provide amazing food! No one can make a 6 egg sponge with passionfruit icing like an older country woman! Such a shame I have to wait for the next book to have a resolution to the story.

Just finished this book, a first for me with this Author, had a great story, great characters, and it all fizzled out, not finishing of any part of the story, the buttons, could have been a great part of the story, but still in the cupboard, and introducing a new character 6 pages before the end,
never had that before.
Is there another coming out and this is Book One of a Series, would like to have been informed about that before spending so much on a book.
A Very Different Story- and a Good One
This book shows the skill of this writer. The elements are very basic. Small town country setting with small time inhabitants. Divorce, genuine friendship, difficult families, and just maybe love, drive the journey of chasing a dream and of making it happen against the odds. What makes the story so riveting is that the people are so very real as anyone with a small town upbringing will relate to instantly. A really good read
Four Stars
A heart warming saga.
Ready to move on!
This is a nice simple story about a woman who was ready to move on and make a better life for herself and 'Grace'. Take notice of the jar of buttons...but no real conclusion to this! I would have loved to counted the amount of 'having a cuppa' in this tale.
