Produktbeschreibung

Forced away from the Outback she both loves and loathes, bush pilot Amelia Fraser has lost everything - except her compassion. Running from tragedy, she finds herself in Settlers Bridge, determined to never let anyone get close to her again... because accepting love might mean she is ready to replace her memories. And she'll never let that happen. Widower Heath Brennan has learned to channel his grief into anger and self-recrimination. Haunted by the tragic accident that claimed his wife, he is a recluse, grappling with guilt and a heart full of unresolved anguish. His nineteen-year-old daughter, Charlee, battles her own demons. Once the perfect child, she's now a troubled university student in the clutches of drug addiction. Her rage towards Heath for her mother's death forms an impenetrable barrier between them. As Amelia and Heath navigate the treacherous waters of grief and guilt, they learn to confront their pasts, their pain...and consider the possibility of healing. In the midst of brokenness, they might just discover that the act of reaching out could be the key to finding solace and perhaps, a way forward. Wings Above the Mallee is a poignant tale of loss, love, and the reluctant journey towards redemption, where every character learns that mending a broken heart begins with a single, courageous step.

Autorenporträt

Raised initially in a tiny, no-horse town on South Australia's Fleurieu coast, then in the slightly more populated wheat and sheep farming land at Pallamana, Léonie is a country girl through and through. Growing up without a television, she developed a love of reading before she reached primary school, swiftly followed by a desire to write. Pity the poor teachers who received chapters of creative writing instead of a single page! Léonie entertained a brief fantasy of moving to the big city (well, Adelaide), but within months the lure of the open spaces and big sky country summoned her home. A registered wildlife rescuer, she now divides her time between the lush Adelaide Hills, the location of her professional counselling practice, and the stark, arid beauty of the family farm at Pallamana, which provides both the setting for many of her stories and a refuge for the rescues that can't be released. Follow her social media for an overload of the fluffy, fleecy, furred and feathered inhabitants of her home and heart. Leonie is the bestselling author of The Farm at Peppertree Crossing, The Wattle Seed Inn, The River Gum Cottage, The Willow Tree Wharf, The Blue Gum Camp and The Homestead in the Eucalypts.
