Man Shy
It was to be the start of a new life. For Alita, agreeing to run her friend Karen's farm secretarial agency in the Australian outback was the first step away from her past. She hoped to forget her regrettable marriage and perhaps find that not all men were brutish like her ex-husband, Steve. Yet as Karen's engagement party it was Alita's past experience that caused her to behave badly when she met Tagg Laskin. At least she'd never see him again, she told herself comfortingly. Then she learned that he owned the property, Mundoo Run, where she was to live and run the business!

Hero: Taggart (Tagg) Laskin
Heroine: Alita (Lee) Coulthard Perry
