Luke Hemmings was a wild chap. He wasn't like the other kids, he favoured guitars over the popular Australian pipe, the didgerydoo, he preferred a light swim over to mako island or the great barrier reef than the usual teen hobbies of playing with Koalas in the outback. He didn't fear bush fires, bush fires feared him. He thought of the black widow as a close family friend. And he had a loyal and trustworthy pack of dingos to do his dirty work (aka his laundry). That was until he met fellow Australian, Sheila (no surname provided)

A broken prodigy. 17 year old Olive Bennett wishes for nothing more than to wash away the dark memories that haunt her day and night. Moving to Wilson Creek was supposed to do that. But nothing brings the dread back more than her crippled leg, and the horse she hides from herself and everyone else. Helping her father earn desperately needed money, Ollie picks up a job at the local stables, a pristine english riding centre home to stuck up girls and beautiful horses that have never been loved. And it's getting hard to ignore her feelings when Gus, an arrogant, annoying yet gorgeous stablehand is thrown into the mix, his one mission - to break down Ollie's walls.

Can they help her heal with her own broken horse? 'This book is legendary! It's truly compelling and brought me back time and time again. The characters are so easy to fall head over heels with, and the storyline is a complete bomb. I would recommend this ripper of a book to anyone and it should really be published by now.' - @Ruby_Splash.

After summer lightning come the fires... Ken could smell the distinctive scent of burning eucalyptus. Although he was safely inside the house with the windows shut, smoke whispered through air vents and under doors, carried west from the bushfire raging out of control in the hills behind the city.
