'Eight-year-old Kylie was inclined to be something of a handful, but Rosslyn seemed to have the knack of getting on with her, so when the child's uncle, the forceful Boyd Ballinger, suggested that she spend the summer vacation at the Ballinger home in Queensland, helping to look after Kylie, Rosslyn was happy to accept. She soon fell in love with Belyando and its beautiful countryside, and found her small charge no problem at all. No, the real problem was Boyd himself, who had announced from the first that he was a bachelor and intended to remain one. And who was Rosslyn to make him change his mind?' (Publisher's blurb)
