She couldn't let this chance slip by
Johanna Coleman couldn't contain her excitement! Finally her brother, Bryan, had agreed to let her come along on his mission to film primitive animals in the Australian outback.
There was only one obstacle. Nick Bannon refused to allow a woman to jeopardize the success of the expedition.
Defiantly Johanna stowed away on board the boat. But when her presence was discovered, she wasn't sure which she feared most - the fierce crocodiles of the outback, or Nick. His savage eyes seemed to snap at her, and his words of contempt were bruising....

About the author
Margaret Way
613 books162 followersMargaret Way was born and educated in the river city of Brisbane, Australia. Before her marriage she was a well-known pianist, teacher, vocal coach and accompanist, but her hectic musical career came to a halt when her son was born and the demands of motherhood dictated a change of pace.
On a fortuitous impulse she decided to try her hand at romance writing and was thrilled when Mills & Boon accepted her first effort, Time of the Jacaranda, which they published less than a year later in 1970; a feat that brought tears to her father's eyes. Some seventy odd books have followed resulting in a loyal readership whose letters provide a source of support and encouragement. A driving force in all her writing has been the promotion of her much loved country, Australia. She delights in bringing it alive for her readers; its people, way of life, environment, flora and fauna. Her efforts so far have not excited official recognition, but she expects one day she will be awarded the "Order of Australia."
Her interests remain with the arts. She still plays the piano seriously, but her "top Cs" have gone. She is still addicted to collecting antiques and paintings and browsing through galleries. She now lives within sight and sound of beautiful Moreton Bay and its islands, inspiration for some of her books. Her house is full of books, spectacular plants, Chinese screens and pots. She is devoted to her garden and spends much time "directing the design and digging and providing cold drinks and chocolates."

Joanna persuaded her TV journalist older brother to take her with him in his next expedition to Australia. Unfortunately, her brother needed the help of the guide Nick Bannon who refused flat to take Joanna along. Hence, Joanna and Nick clashed and kept clashing till the end.
A silly heroine who never matures till the very end!

The book gave me a spilling headache and I had to swallow two aspirins when I at last finished it between intervals. Not a book worthy of anything!

The heroine is an immature, emotional wreck who falls in love with a man who really hates her and hates his attraction to her, and this doesn't change. I think I damaged my neck from shaking my head so often.
