Kerry Allyne was born in England, UK. Her early childhood was uneventful, she remembered, until her father came home one day and began talking about emigrating to Australia. When they eventually arrived in Australia, Kerry took to her new land with a passion. During the family's first years "down under," she explored as much of the country as she could, journeying northward into Queensland and out onto the Great Barrier Reef, and sometimes south through New South Wales into Victoria. As a adult she returned to England for a short time. A long working holiday enabled her to travel the world before returning to Australia where she met her engineer husband-to-be, and they had a couple of children. The family eventually moved to a rural area and she started to write. She used the people and countryside as inspiration for her romances. She was published by Mills & Boon from 1976 to 1994.
The story was good, but the female character was always arguing with her man. It got tiresome, I kept saying "oh for heavens sake shut up already!" So dropped a star.
Between the infuriating Roman McNamara and her brother Chris’s plans to change the productive capabilities of the farm coupled with the history of feuding between these two families Sheri found herself confused. A bullet putting her brother in hospital, open gates enabling stock to stray and a fire on the farm did not help matters.
The long-standing feud between their families was supposed to be over, but as soon as Sheri Taylor was reunited with Roman McNamara her old antagonism toward him flared up.
How had she talked herself into this crazy scheme, when she could never convince herself they were anything but enemies?
And why couldn't Roman accept the fact that her interest in him was only pretense?
