'Heart-warming, captivating and absolutely perfect.' - Blue Wolf Reviews on Nicole Hurley-Moore's The McCalister Legacy The Carrington family own the only pub in the small country town of Kangaroo Ridge. It's been eight years since the five siblings became orphans and since twins Sebastian and Tamara stepped up to look after their younger brothers and sister with the help of their aunt Maddie. Seb and Tam gave up their teenage years to make sure the family stayed together, but that's been hard and they've grown apart. Seb is silent and stoic; Tam, on the other hand, wants to kick over the traces and catch up on the life she missed out on. To complicate matters, Tam is in a secret relationship - one she is sure Seb will disapprove of. But can Tam ever allow herself a happy future while she still, deep down, blames herself for the accident that killed her parents? Praise for The McCalister Legacy 'Engaging and heart-warming, this is a great read for a chilly night.' - Canberra Weekly 'A staple read for rural fiction fans.' - Mrs B's Book Reviews 'A gripping read that weaves the threads of history and hard times on the farm with a whodunit drama that'll thrill lovers of that genre.' - The Weekly Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning new rural romance from the bestselling author of The McCalister Legacy and Summer at Kangaroo Ridge. Love is the last thing on Jasmine Clarke's mind when she arrives in Kangaroo Ridge with a broken heart. But then she meets Felix Carrington. Felix helps run his family's wedding venue business at Carrington Farm. His real passion, though, is taking glorious shots of the local region. And it's through an unlikely friendship with 84-year-old Winnifred Knightly that Felix is able to take frequent photos at his favourite place, Peppercorn House, with all its faded grandeur and mysterious history. Winnifred still grieves over the losses of her childhood but in her long life she's learned to be grateful for the present. She believes herself to be an excellent matchmaker and plots to bring her 'adopted grandson' Felix and Jasmine, her favourite aged-care worker, together as her final project. But buried secrets and unhealed family scars threaten Winnifred's plans – as Felix and Jasmine must soon come to understand. Praise for Nicole Hurley-Moore: 'I was impressed by the compassion, sensitivity, empathy and understanding of the real issues at stake across our distanced communities.' Mrs B's Book Reviews on Summer at Kangaroo Ridge 'heartwarming and emotional, with plenty of romance, but also family dynamics, and decision making at pivotal points in their lives.' Beuaty and Lace on Summer at Kangaroo Ridge '... a wonderful, rich tale confronting the devastation of tragedy, the very real desire to discover the truth and the healing power of love to be able to accept the past and begin to build a new future... heart-warming, captivating and absolutely perfect for a cold, wet, winters day snuggled up in front of the fire.' Blue Wolf Reviews on The McCalister Legacy 'Nicole Hurley-Moore's work captures the essence of times past, futures yet to be discovered and fresh beginnings, all with a hope and knowledge based in love and understanding.'
