The Fall

For those who fell in love with Candy Young in Always You, you will not want to miss The Fall, book 2 in the 'Not My First Rodeo Series'. Set in outback Australia, where Aussie cowboys and cowgirls do it best.

When rock bottom can’t get any lower, can two people from completely different worlds become each other’s happily ever after?

Hairdresser, beauty therapist and renowned party girl Candy Young finds herself without a friend in the world after betraying her best friend and shooting down in flames what promised to be the wedding of the decade. When she can’t face the shame any longer, she runs away from her small-town life to an isolated Australian outback pastoral station to become a governess for two young children.

Wealthy pastoral station owner and former rodeo champion Henry Beck is in crisis after the devastating loss of his wife. Despite making her a death-bed promise he would move on with his life, he doesn’t think he ever will. That is, until the new ‘govie’ Candy Young arrives and lights up every dark corner of the Gibber Creek homestead. Despite an age gap that can’t be ignored, and he and Candy being at completely different stages of their lives, Henry can’t help thinking what it would be like to drag himself out of his grief to love again.

Candy falls naturally into a mothering role for Henry’s adorable children but when she runs into an old flame, Randy Dunn, who happens to be the up-and-coming national rodeo champion, settling down becomes the last thing on her mind. While she tries to bury her dark secrets in the bottom of Randy’s swag, she wrestles with whether she can keep up the pretense or if she should tell Henry the truth about the type of girl she really is.

A life and death moment in the dusty, isolated outback with help a long way away presents Candy with a situation she never imagined she’d have to face.
