What does it take to shift deep-seated betrayal?

Adele Fergus switched back to her maiden name with plans to never look back-never think about her naïve, short-lived marriage to James Montague. But that was before he turned up on her Wānaka doorstep with her missing diamonds, an unlikely backstory, and persistent requests for visitation with his ex-stepdaughter.

Adele's hell-bent on keeping James at arms-length, but it's not easy with old attractions still running hot. What's more, she's beginning to suspect she may have left him on false information.

Divorce was never in James' game-plan, so when his ex-wife's jewellery comes to light, it's excuse enough to be drawn back to her-welcome or not-and he isn't leaving until he has all the answers.

The more the exes re-learn to trust each other, the more they come to realise someone was intent on dragging them apart from the very beginning. Someone close.

Is it worth risking everything to start again?

Winner of both the Daphne Clair de Jong First Kiss and RWNZ Great Beginnings competition, LAKE TAIMANA is a contemporary love story set in the stunning Lakes District in southern New Zealand. The third novel by emerging Kiwi writer, Stephanie Ruth, it can be read as a standalone or within the OTAGO WATERS series. Intended for readers who enjoy their feel-good, slow-burn romance a little on the steamy side.
