Australia 1868

Kitty McKenzie arrives in Australia with her younger siblings, her best friend Connie, and
her befriended servants Alice and Hetta. In Sydney, Kitty
's fiance, Ben, introduces her to
the city
's upper society. Kitty loves Ben as much as he loves her. With this marriage, her
family will at last be restored to the status they held before her mother and father died.
She had promised her parents to take care of her brothers and sisters and to keep them
together. Only her brother Rory left, not wanting to face the poverty into which the
family fell.

But fate isn't finished with Kitty, for on her wedding day Ben is killed in an accident on
the way to the church. Ben
's wealth reverts to his mother, but he leaves Kitty his
wedding gift. She receives five hundred acres in
the Australian Bush. Grieving but
undaunted, Kitty ventures there to reestablish her family
's security. Unimaginable
hardship faces her as she struggles to make a living off the land. As an added nuisance,
her nearest neighbor, Miles Grayson, owner of the Blue Water Station, provokes her at
every turn. How can she be attracted to another man when all her love belongs to Ben
forever?

Through Kitty
's amazing journey, you learn the hazards and hardships settlers faced in
Australia. Kitty is an amazing character, beautiful, brave, industrious, and as feisty and
stubborn as her red hair proclaims her to be. She is also aggravating, impetuous, and pig-
headed. The reader knows she would have walked all over Ben. But the furious and
impassioned courtship between Kitty and Miles is one between equals.

KITTY MCKENZIE'S LAND sweeps you along with Kitty through a turbulent time in
her life, one of immense financial and emotional gains, and equally tremendous losses.
While her brusque talk and headstrong attitude aggravate both the other characters and
the reader, it is such an intrinsic part of her drive that it becomes part of the story. No
matter how low Kitty is brought, she conquers her fears and disappointments and shows
how courageous pioneers needed to be, not only to survive in the wilderness, but to
break cultural norms in order to succeed. Author Anne Whitfield provides you a
fascinating historical romance in KITTY MCKENZIE'S LAND.

To understand Kitty's motivation better, you might want to read KITTY MCKENZIE
first, but you will have no trouble understanding Kitty's past in KITTY MCKENZIE'S
LAND.
