The Grazier's Proposal

A buying trip to Brisbane for her arts and craft shop had

prompted Peta to visit friends, Helen and

Nelson Young. Nelson, being his bombastic, bouyant self, had talked her

into driving him to Tambo, and although considerably out

of her way, she had reluctantly agreed.




Now, hour's later after dropping her friend off at his

destination, she was stranded on the side of the highway

miles from anywhere and cursing the name of her friend.




Fate was about to step in, however, in the form of Beale

Jacobs; a fellow traveller on this lonely, semi-deserted

highway. Peta's life was about to change forever.




"Marry you!" Peta echoed his words in stunned disbelief,

wondering why a man as charismatic as Beale Jacobs would

ask a woman to marry him after such a short acquaintance.




Life in the bush would certainly be life changing. Would

Peta be able to handle it? She was a city girl knowing

nothing about country life, let alone what happened on a

cattle station.




Peta felt there was an undeniable pull and her heart

strings were tuning up for the grand finale. She was about

to discover a whole new world; one that would help to

uncover long lost secrets concerning past generations in

Beale's family background.
