May contain spoilers....

Entertaining story. The ending was satisfying but unexpected. I thought I had picked up on some foreshadowing and was expecting other occurrences.

While I wasn’t disappointed with the story line, some details seemed like they were leading in one direction and didn’t get as thoroughly explored or didn’t play out as I expected.

Still, it was an enjoyable read and a nice vacation read.

Lorraine Marshall needs to distance herself from her circumstances after her long-term, live-in boyfriend dumped her. Hence, she flies to Australia to investigate her family history.

This tale is a splendid mix of "Australia & Oceania Literature," "Biographical Fiction," and "Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Literary Fiction" genres. This saga provides an understanding of Aboriginal artists' heartrending treatment. Lorraine makes serious character growth.

The story was just OK. Nothing earth shattering in her transformation. She did become more independent from her trip but just an ok story.

3.0 out of 5 stars A fresh start?

Lorraine has had her heart broken. Badly. Now she's headed off on a solo vacation to Australia, drawn by a cache of old articles and pictures she discovered after her grandmother passed away. She's barely able to function for her obsession over her lost love, and the years wasted on that relationship, and even a trip halfway across the world is small solace, at least to start. But then Lorraine meets people - Luigi, who thinks himself in love with her, Sheila who might be the link between her past and her future, and she discovers the magic of Australia and the possibilities that await her if she can move on.

It's a short read, easy to follow and with likeable and realistic characters. Their interactions are a bit awkward and Lorraine never really becomes am independent woman - it feels like she's just seeking out new people to lean on. I would have liked to feel her standing on her own more. Also I think more emphasis should have been put on getting answers about her grandmother's past, that was big in the beginning but lost steam in favor of romance and other developments.

Too many descriptions, no ending at all, and I thought if it mentioned her ex, Sean, one more time I would scream! I think I skipped more of this than I actually read. Wish I hadn't wasted my time reading it.
