Ally Tasker is in a dead-end teaching job and a dead-end relationship. Her dreams of an exotic life after art college did not consist of cleaning up after school children and fitting in with her dull real estate agent boyfriend. She wishes she was more like her friend Meg - at least she has turned her art training into a lucrative job in computer design, not to mention having a gorgeous husband and son.
But then Ally's grandfather dies and she returns to the Southern Tablelands, where she must confront issues from the past that her safe, numb life in Sydney has cushioned her from. Meanwhile, Meg is not as happy as Ally has presumed. The life of a married mother with a career is not giving Meg the satisfaction she expected.
Sometimes you have to risk all you have to realise what is worth saving.
Dianne Blacklock has been a teacher, trainer, counsellor, check-out chick, and even one of those annoying market researchers you avoid in shopping centres. Nowadays she tries not to annoy anyone by staying home and writing.
