OUTBACK SECRETS (KOOLAROO RANCH)

She’s unearthing ancient secrets.
He’s desperate to keep his secrets buried.
But the deeper they dig, the deadlier the truth.

Special Forces soldier Mitch Branson swore he’d never return to Koolaroo Ranch, his family’s vast cattle station in the heart of the Australian Outback. But when his tyrannical father vanishes without a trace, Mitch and his siblings face a chilling truth: their father may or may not be dead, but his secrets are about to tear the family apart.

Fiercely independent paleontologist Charlie Macintyre comes to Koolaroo Ranch chasing a career-defining dinosaur discovery and collides head-on with a brooding soldier determined to shut her down. When a flash flood traps them in a maze of hidden caves, survival takes a deadly turn. Buried in the darkness, they uncover evidence of a decades-old murder, and Charlie realizes the land is hiding far more than fossils.

As the merciless Outback closes in, danger escalates and attraction flares between two people who never planned to trust anyone again. But the truth about Mitch’s past, and the brutal confrontation that drove him from Koolaroo, threatens to destroy what’s growing between them.

While the Branson siblings race to unravel their father’s disappearance, they discover some family legacies are meant to stay buried. And if Frank is still alive, Mitch may be forced to finish what he started ten years ago.

Outback Secrets is book one in the gripping Koolaroo Ranch romantic thriller series, where passion runs hot, danger lurks beneath the red dust, and every book uncovers another shocking layer of the Branson family’s twisted heritage.
