About the book
"Is the outback life too tough for you?" Dev Deveraux's tone was deliberately taunting. "I guess namby-pamby little English girls don't belong in my country," he drawled. Rennie's eyes sparked with anger. She knew he was trying to goad her into going to his cattle station to cook and clean for his visiting girl friend, Isobel, and her Aunt. But calling her "namby-pamby," saying she didn't belong in "his" country--it was too much! She'd accept his challenge. She'd show this infuriating man just how wrong he was!
