description: From the best-selling author of
  Brumby’s Run
   and
  Currawong Creek
   comes an evocative tale of love and loyalty, set in the heart of Australia’s riverlands.
  Can Nina protect the wild place she holds so close to her heart? Or will the man she once loved destroy it?
  For Nina Moore, the rare marshland flanking the beautiful Bunyip River is the most precious place on Earth. Her dream is to buy Billabong Bend and protect it forever, but she’s not the only one with designs on the land.
  When her childhood sweetheart, Ric Bonelli, returns home, old feelings are rekindled and Nina dares to dream of a future for them both on the river. But a tragic death divides loyalties and threatens to tear apart their fledgling relationship.
  This star-crossed rural romance sets Nina, a floodplains grazier, and Ric, a traditional cotton farmer, on a heart-rending collision course amid the beauty of northern New South Wales.
