Publisher's Summary
From a best-selling debut author, this Australian historical adventure romance is a compulsively listenable 19th-century story of hate, honor, greed, and an overwhelming love.
Bendigo 1890
Ard O'Rourke is Linley Seymour's perfect man. They've known each other since they were children and she has never wanted anyone else. But when she discovers Ard has fathered a child with another woman, her dreams turn to dust.
Then fate takes a hand. Linley and her Aunt Cee Cee run a women's refuge and Linley finds herself unexpectedly and painfully the guardian of Ard's baby: a child that needs her protection from the greed-filled schemes of a violent man.
Ard knows he has no hope with Linley and decides to follow his own path: one that brings him close to redemption. But when he learns Linley and the child are in danger, his own child at that, he cannot stop himself speeding to their aid.
Will he prevail? Can Linley find it in her heart to forgive him? Or will their love come to nothing at the hands of a violent man?
A compulsively listenable historical adventure, set on the banks of the mighty Murray River.

Where the Murray River Runs Characters
There were quite a few characters introduced into this story so it took me a while to figure it out in my head. However, it would have been a lot easier had I not been constantly interrupted!
That was a tough era in which to survive and readers of today are spoiled because we can visit the characters in their time but pop back into modern comfort after sharing their experiences. Phew.
One thing I am glad about is that I don’t take sugar in my tea! However, I can’t say anything else about that otherwise I might reveal too much and spoil the storyline for those intending to listen. It was a strong turning point.
Once the villain hiked up his pace I wouldn’t have minded something stronger than a cuppa! Yet further down the track all worked out well for the other characters who were a good mix of various ages and experiences. Through personal growth some even changed their ways and that led to an ending of hope and promise.
Thank goodness for audiobooks!
