Synopsis

She'll make over this town...one man at a time!

Imogen Bates moved to the small rural town of Gibson's Find to start a new life for herself after the death of her husband. Tired of being haunted by the painful memories of her old life, Imogen set her last remaining hopes on the little town and poured her heart and savings into restoring The Majestic Hotel to its former glory. But while the female–starved town might be glad to see a young woman move in, not everyone is happy about Imogen's arrival.

Farmer Gibson Black once dreamed of having the kind of family his grandfather reminisces about, but he's learnt not to dream anymore. Living in the mostly male town suits Gibson down to the ground... And he won't have anyone – least of all a hot redhead from the city – change a thing.

Imogen has never been one to back down from a challenge – especially when it concerns her last chance at happiness. She's determined to rebuild the pub and create a future for the little town. But can she create a future for Gibson and herself, too?

Goodreads review by Jenny on April 15, 2013

I'm pretty self-indulgent with my reviews. I comment on what interests me about a book, rather than thinking that someone might actually read my reviews! You don't, do you? :) All of which is my excuse for going off on a bit of a tangent. Since chick lit burst onto the scene and then kind of faded bu......more

Goodreads review by Mary on May 21, 2017

Imogen started life in country WA but had to move back to Perth for high school. The only good things about the city were her two best friends, Amy and Jenna, and Jaime, The One and her husband.

My Review: If you're a romantic at heart, (let's face it...you're reading the romance genre... the chances are pretty good that you're a romantic at heart) then you will love the theme of this book.
