Theo Wedgeworth always thought her grandmother was a formidable woman, but it wasn't until she offered to babysit the eighty-year-old widow's fruit farm, in the tropical climes of Far North Queensland, that she learnt just how extraordinary Edna Jennings truly was. Indeed, all the women in Theo's family evoke admiration in their own individual way, and so when the opportunity came around to support the matriarch, and perhaps gain a little self-esteem along the way, she threw herself at it. Far from the usual routine of her humdrum city life, Theo quickly finds herself in way over her head and knee deep in horticultural purgatory. Learning skills she never thought herself capable of, and going into battle with poisonous toads and her tween self's arch nemesis, Luca Antonelli, the stunning scenery and stifling daily workouts aren't the only thing leaving her breathless.
