About this audiobook
The matchmakers of the Wagtail Ridge Knitting Club return - with a new couple in their sights. A moving story about finding and accepting love from the award-winning author of The Library at Wagtail Ridge.
Anna Prentiss, the town vet, keeps herself emotionally distant from everyone. Badly scarred in an accident, she believes she will never be loved. But the matchmakers of the Knitting Club disagree.
Firefighter Justin Turner is building a volunteer fire service to protect the town during the bushfire season. But Justin and his identical twin brother, Ben, face an unexpected and rocky reunion when their estranged mother crashes back into their orbit.
Justin doesn't see Anna's scars - only her beauty and strength. But his attempt at a romantic dinner goes horribly wrong, and he begins to understand how easy it is to be unintentionally cruel - a lesson he should apply to his own past with his mother.
When fate forces both Anna and Justin to confront their fears, they see the chance of a future together. But as a raging bushfire threatens Wagtail Ridge, will this newfound hope be reduced to ash before they can take the chance?
