About the book
2929 Men were not to be trusted! — Adair had learned that from experience. She had built a wall around herself to exclude all men, and she ensured their lack of attention by deliberately making herself dowdy and unattractive. — Thane Callahan, a rancher visiting her small rural town in Central Queensland, saw through her disguise, though, and began an assault that stirred all her senses. When Adair resisted, determined not to become one of his conquests, he withdrew. "You'd rather hide from life than live it," Thane accused. Then Adair discovered the true meaning of heartbreak and loneliness.
