A Summer Escape/Someone Like You/Red Dust Runaway/Hide and Seek

Three sun-soaked Australian stories to fall in love with.

Someone Like You by Victoria Purman

Dan McSwaine can't normally bear to be more than ten minutes from a hip bar and a group of hot women. So what is he doing in a falling down beach shack at Middle Point? All he knows is that he's made some crazy decisions since the night a truck slammed into his car and almost killed him. The first one was buying a crumbling piece of coastal real estate. The second was trying to hide away from the world when a woman like Lizzie Blake is determined to drag him right back into it...

Red Dust Runaway by Eva Scott

Iris longs to rebel, have a hot affair, fall in love - to really live before happily committing to her classical music bubble. But her parents keep her confined to her gilded cage. Rock star Kit just wants to stop. Stop the touring and the recording and the media. After two years on the road, he's coming apart at the seams. A chance encounter in a car park leads to a snap decision and an enormous risk: suddenly Kit and Iris are on an extraordinary road trip together across Australia. Are they just running away - or running away together?

Hide And Seek by Eliza Redgold

A little birdie tells Hope Buchanan that American hotel developer Sullivan O'Dare isn't just in town for a holiday. As the manager of a bird sanctuary, Hope has more than a vested interest in protecting natural habitats. Hope pulls out all the stops to convince Sullivan to come out with her to the WA bush. Surely a dose of 'Broome time' will show him what's at stake. But what is initially about saving the sanctuary soon becomes about finding a connection. Could Hope have finally found the bird of a feather to form her own flock?
