Maya Linnell is BACK! Meet the bestselling rural romance author as she presents her latest, Cockatoo Cove, a heartfelt story of resilience, connection and life on the land. If you loved Wallaby Lane, you won’t want to miss this talk.

Free event. Bookings required.

About the book:
Delightfully packed with new friends and loves, family and community spirit, this new rural romance from the bestselling author of Wallaby Lane is absolutely charming. It’s perfect for readers of Fleur McDonald, Monica McInerney, Rachael Johns and Karly Lane.

Maggie West has worked tirelessly to prove herself, establishing a successful cattle stud instead of following her father into the crayfishing industry, though it's never enough to stop local speculation about her family's holdings. And with her teenage daughter veering off the rails, she knows all too well that money doesn't provide immunity against heartache or hardship.

Since landing in South Australia's picturesque Limestone Coast, Scottish winemaker Fergus Abernathy has gone from strength to strength. But it isn't just the awards that are keeping him in the district; if he can put down roots, perhaps he can persuade his family to join him Down Under.

Missing his family back in Scotland, Fergus looks a little enviously at the close-knit West family, until a shocking phone call changes everything. Misunderstandings and long-withheld secrets create roadblocks for Maggie and Fergus, and with a community fundraiser hanging in the balance, it seems they're never destined to be in the right place at the right time.

Set in stunning wine country with border collies, rugged coastlines and generous community spirit, Cockatoo Cove is an exceptional tale showcasing the richness of life on the land.

About the author:
Bestselling fiction author Maya Linnell gathers inspiration from her rural upbringing and the small communities she has always lived in and loved. A former country journalist and radio host, Cockatoo Cove is Maya’s seventh novel, following Wallaby Lane, Kookaburra Cottage, Paperbark Hill, Magpie’s Bend, Bottlebrush Creek and Wildflower Ridge.
