The English Oak

She had nothing left to lose. At least that's what she thought.

Bronte Miller and her young daughter Madeline leave England and the only home they had ever known when they venture to Australia in search of a new life. A job as Governess on Tullagulla Station in the Queensland outback seems like a good place to start, however the heat, flies and long days of work bring unexpected challenges. 

As Bronte and Madeline settle into life on Tullagulla, the property is threatened by an unexpected rural crime wave and its residents band together to assist the stock squad.

Then, just as a new relationship develops between Bronte and the local vet, a shocking secret is revealed and her life is once again turned upside down.

Will she find the happiness she so desperately wants? Or will the hardships all be for nothing?
