Only Jessica Pearson knows the truth when the press portrays her as the woman who betrayed her lover to escape prosecution. But will her new job flying an outback air ambulance help her sleep at night or atone for a lost life?
Doctor Adam Gilmore touches the lives of his patients, but his own scars mean he can never let a woman touch his heart.
Runaway Ellen Parkes wants to build a safe future for her two children. Without a man—not even one as gentle as Jack North.
In Coorah Creek, a town on the edge of nowhere, you're judged by what you do, not what people say about you. But when the harshest judge is the one you see in the mirror, there's nowhere left to hide.
My thoughts:
I loved the show Flying Doctors as a kid, and a teen, and honestly I can watch that show anytime. So when I saw this book I wanted to read it, and it had the same heart. A small town, a close community and what matters is what you do there.
Jessica had a lot of issues. She was a pilot, fell in love with her boss, who then turned out to be a drug smuggler. She blames herself, she should have seen it sooner. Poor thing. I mean it was not her fault! And she had to run to the outback do get away from the papers and pointing fingers. I felt for her, people can be idiots.
Adam has issues too, I am not going to say what, but he does not want to get too close to anyone. But then Jessica shows up, and he likes her, oh he likes her.
The book has another couple too, Ellen who is also on the run with her two kids and Jack, the mechanic who falls for her.
I got to see all of these work through their issues and find love. And a new life and friends too. It was a lovely town.
We get a bit of, well medical action as that is what she is there for after all. A bit of very slow building romance and just life in general.
Conclusion:
I would take a flight to Coorah Creek if it meant meeting all of these people.
