About this ebook
Brisbane lawyer Clare Mitchell has a structured, orderly life. That is, until she finds herself the unlikely guardian of a small, troubled boy. In desperation, Clare takes Jack to stay at Currawong Creek, her grandfather's horse stud in the foothills of the beautiful Bunya Mountains.
Here life moves at a different pace, and for Clare it feels like coming home. Her grandad adores having them there. Jack loves the animals. And Clare finds herself falling hard for the handsome local vet.
But trouble is coming. The Pyramid Mining Company threatens to destroy the land Clare loves – and with it, her newfound happiness.
'An excellent read.'

Just received an email today to advise me: Cancellation of my Google Play Pre-Order from May 31, 2013. Reasons given: - is a problem with either the eBook, or; - the form of payment that I chose. The book purchase was for FREE & there's no problem with my payment method, so I tried pre-ordering only to find it listed for $12.99! This review is not for the book, it's to comment/complain, seeing there's no direct email to Google Books Ireland (acting agent). How convenient for them!

I ordered and paid for currawong creek and received a sneak peak of brumbys run. Not very happy and there is no contact email available. I am reporting this to. Consumer affairs.
About the author
Jennifer has always harboured a deep appreciation and respect for the natural world. Her house, which was left to her by her father, is on a hilltop overlooking valleys of messmate and mountain ash. She lives there with her family. A pair of old eagles live there too. Black-tailed wallabies graze by the creek. Eastern spinebills hover among the callistemon. Horses have always been her passion. She grew up on the books of Elyne Mitchell, and all her life she's ridden and bred horses, in particular Australian stock horses.
