This is the book for you.Jessica is the perfect "girl out of her element".  It was fun to see what her impulsiveness gets her into.  From jumping on a plane to Australia in search of a recluse for an interview, to being totally unprepared for her trip through the outback in her silk shirts and skirts.  I like that Jess is strong and not afraid to go after what she wants, Jess has turned her back on the family money and is trying to go on her own.  Jess was cheated on by her ex-finance and finds it hard to trust in men which makes Alex's secrets hard for her to come to grips with.Alex is the sexy, rugged Aussie who starts out on bad footing with Jess when he meets her and sprays her with mud besides being rude to her.  When Alex finds out that Jess is after an interview with his alter ego, he decides to keep her close.  Keeping her close leads to a sexy, fun trip through the Outback to the resort Alex runs.  Alex has also been hurt in the past from his ex.  Alex's secrets catch up with him besides a misunderstanding and threaten the love blooming between the two of them.Great story with Australia as the backdrop.4 stars
