Description:

There’s more going on than meets the eye at Wyrangi Station. In a desperate bid to restore order on her land, Sonia Brooke seeks a private nurse to care for her disabled husband and daughter so that she can get back to the business of running her Outback Queensland station. Angela Owen, a young nurse from Tamworth, fits the bill.

Unaware of the trouble she is walking in to, Angela’s arrival is a baptism of fire. Greeted with an emergency on the road to her new home, Angela is first on the scene at a near-deadly motorcycle accident. While trying to save the victim’s life, she has an instant soul connection. She cannot get him out of her mind: this man called John Riley.

As she settles in, Angela quickly senses that some important information is being withheld from her about the conditions of the job. Upon realising the frightening truth, Angela is faced with a decision to abandon the very people who need her or to put her own life on the line. One fateful moment seals the deal: John Riley is alive and well and walks back into her life. And she can’t bring herself to leave him.

Once Angela commits to stay, the Outback station has one focus—to keep her alive. While they safeguard her from danger, she weaves magic into the lives of her patients, bringing new hope and light to the Brooke family and Wyrangi Station.

The challenge is: how long can they keep Angela protected?
