Mirrabooka Magic - McGuinness, Maggie

. .

Résumé :
She's had it with cities - and the men who live in them. Juliet Cooper is going home. She and her dog, Ruby Roo, are going back to the Australian coastal village of Mirrabooka, on the wild and beautiful Australian coast, where Juliet's wounded heart can heal. She is never going to change her life for a man again. He's a city dweller, through and through. Stuck in the middle of nowhere, Finn McLaren is out of his comfort zone with no nightlife, no fine dining, and totally random internet access. He longs for the city ... until his absent neighbour arrives home, that is. And then two worlds collide. Their lives are too different, and the timing's all wrong - nothing about the persistent attraction between Juliet and Finn seems to make any sense. But will the magic of Mirrabooka bring them together? A true slow-burn love story, Mirrabooka Magic is a clean and wholesome romance set in the unspoiled beauty of the Australian coastal wilderness. Perfect for lovers of small-town and rural fiction, the story is a celebration of the important things in life: love and laughter, family and friendship, the beauty of the ocean - and the loyalty of a good dog.

Biographie:
Maggie McGuinness has always been fascinated by people and the ways they relate to each other. Now, after years of observing and experiencing life in all its wonderful, messy glory - it's time to write about it! Maggie lives in a corner of Australia in a remote coastal village, surrounded by the ocean and beautiful native forests. Her housemates are a very cute rescue dog called Tilly, and Mr Tibbs, a cranky old cat who moved in under the house and wouldn't leave. (He's not silly - he now gets prime position in front of the open fire.) She writes and edits in the business world for a living, but longs to be able to sit at home all day in PJs, drinking tea and writing fiction. Maggie's hobbies are walking Tilly on the beach, learning the art of wood splitting, and perfecting her own extreme sport of combining Zumba and cooking.
