Story blurb for Cherry Season by Trish Morey THEY SAY OPPOSITES ATTRACT. EVERYONE EXCEPT DAN THAT IS... Dan Faraday is a thirty-seven years old Adelaide Hills third generation orchardist who is badly in need of a wife if this business is ever going to make it to a fourth generation. Luckily for Dan, his sisters have given him a gift that will make finding a wife easier - a subscription to a dating agency. And luckily Dan knows exactly what he needs - someone sensible with sober habits, who appreciates the primary producers life and is looking to settle down. ENTER LUCY... Lucy Marino has been a gipsy for all of her twenty-five years, never staying in one place long enough to call it home. Now she's backpacking her way around Australia. Permanence isn't part of her DNA, even if the cherry farmer she's working for makes it hard to remember why and the property reminds her of another time, when life was more settled and secure... AND LET THE GAMES COMMENCE! Soon the sparks are flying, and not just because Lucy's left the gas on and the caravan she's been living in explodes. And soon Dan realises that the perfect matches he's meeting on the dating site aren't nearly as appealing as the impetuous, gorgeous blonde he now has living in his house. Would it kill him to give in to his desires? Maybe not, but Dan's not looking for temporary and Lucy's not looking for permanent and there's no way this is going to work. Is there? |

I stopped buying tchotchkes and rely on photos and memories of my vacations and trips.
USA girl
I think this was meant to be mementoes, USA girl, but if not, I'd love to see some of your tchotchkes :) Photos and memories are great too. I have so many photos of my travels. Lovely to look through them all.
Denise, I'm guilty of buying trinkets and souvenirs which are on display for a few months and then end up in a cupboard... :)
Oops! Sorry Denise - was looking in the wrong place for your name!
Can't wait to read. December is soooo long away 😊
December will be upon us sooner that we think, Catie! :)
True, Jennie, it's almost August already! Not too long to wait, Catie (and it will be out late November, if that helps any :))
CHERRY SEASON sounds delicious.
I don't really buy mementoes on my trips, but I do tend to pick up things like coasters, brochures & shells etc.
Shells - now that's something I do always like collecting on my travels where possible. I have a jug full of them, Mary.
Just love shells! I'm guilty of bringing back a suitcase full of brochures too :)
Postcards, handicrafts, Laminated pictures,things made from sandalwood, Keychains, photos taken there etc. Haven't read any of Trish Morey's books . Have to give it a try.
All Trish's books are fab Jessy. Have your read Stone Castles yet? It's Trish's women's fiction rural book.
Hi Jessy! I'd forgotten about my tin full of postcards I've brought back. Love them because the weather and lighting is always magically perfect in postcards. Keyrings too! Ooh, we do love collecting bits and pieces, it's not just me :)
Cherry Season sounds intriguing Trish. Congratulations!
Thanks Jennifer! I can't wait to see it on shelf (if only because that means I don't have to edit again :-))
don't really buy stuff
You're a stronger traveller than me! I can't resist a memento or three :)
Trish Hello, I just read the book by Franco Chatsfield, and I must say that I liked molto.Mi really liked both Franco and Holly. Holly I liked because it is able to hold his own against Franco. Bello also the character of the grandfather of Holly. I love your books and in this particular way.
Hi Franca and I have to say, I love your comment molto :) Thanks so much for enjoying Tycoon's Temptation. I'm just doing edits on Cherry Season and loving the grandparents' interaction/interference. Maybe I love grandparents!
Best to you!
I do not buy many treasures when on holiday, the only treasure that purchase are small glass objects depicting a monument in the city I'm visiting. I also like buy local products such as wine and spirits particular.
Hi Trish
Wow I can't wait to read this new one sounds awesome woohoo :)
I have a few things around the house that I have bought or friends have bought me back I haven't done a lot of travelling myself (a lot in books read ) I have a green rock on a stand with a dolphin on top that a friend bought me back from Tasmania many years ago and sadly that friend has passed on now and every time I look at it it warms my heart
Have Fun
Helen
Thanks Helen! Isn't it special to have something from a loved one like that? xx
I generally take photos of family. But I also love haveing a piece if the environment to take hone. Especially shells if I'm near a beach.
