Darcie works for a lingerie store called Wunderthings and they are expanding to the Pacific Rim. She goes to Australia with her boss and meets Dylan, a sheep station owner. They have a 2 week tryst that Darcie has a hard time forgetting about after she returns home. She thinks he's barbaric in his views of men and women and he thinks she's afraid to fall in love and take a chance. However, the ending wasn't the best and left me just a little unsatisfied.

More romance-y than your standard chick lit. I had so looked forward to reading this due to the the fact that it's (partially) set in Austraila and had a cute title. But I was sorely disappointed.
Great read.
Good read!
cute read
While somehwat far-fetched, this is an entertaining and relaxing book. It takes place in Manhattan and in Australia, as the main character works for a lingerie company based in New York and expanding to open a store in Sydney.
I wish I had the guts to do just one of the things I most
wanted to do, but was too chicken too!!
