A Cattleman's Heart

She’s the one woman he can’t live without. He’s the one man she can’t afford to fall for.
Marnie Fairfax has worked hard for the future she wants. A newly qualified vet with a career waiting in Brisbane, she has no intention of trading city lights and independence for cattle stations, country gossip and a lifetime of dust. Especially not for Todd Whittaker—the infuriatingly handsome cowboy she’s spent years arguing with and one unforgettable night trying to forget.
Todd has always known what he wants. He wants Wyambee Station, the land his late father left him, and the woman who has owned his heart since they were young. But with old family rivalries, mounting pressure and Marnie determined to keep her future firmly under her own control, winning her heart might be the toughest job he’s ever faced.
When a devastating bushfire threatens everything they hold dear, Marnie discovers there’s more to Todd than the stubborn cowboy she thought she knew. And Todd begins to understand that loving Marnie means giving her the freedom to choose her own path—even if it leads away from him.
With a dream job calling, a station hanging in the balance and two fiercely independent hearts fighting their feelings, they must decide whether love means sacrificing everything—or finding a way to have it all. Sometimes the hardest thing about coming home is discovering where you truly belong.
A heartwarming Australian rural romance by USA Today bestselling author Chris Taylor filled with sizzling chemistry, sharp banter, family feuds and the courage to choose a love worth fighting for.
