Schoolteacher Celeste Miller is taking a holiday in outback Australia when she is struck by the story of the legendary stockman Nathaniel Castlemaine, who advertised for a bride in 1900. In fun she answers the advert and discards it but is surprised to receive a reply from his great grandson.
She arrives at Golden Downs Hughenden to find things are not what she imagined. Nathaniel Castlemaine is nothing like his great grandfather. The staff don't think she's cut out for station life and make things difficult.
Just as she is getting to know the real Nate Castlemaine the Police arrest them for a crime they did not commit, and Celeste calls on her ex a gifted criminal lawyer to help.
Desperate to get them off the charges she uses all her ingenuity and skill while she is bailed to the vast cattle station she must help run while Nate languishes in prison for a crime he did not commit.
Can this sophisticated woman cope with life in the Australian outback without the support of the man she came for? Just when things couldn't get any worse Nate finds a message from his great grandfather that changes his life.
