Summary:
"Jenny Ashcroft's Under the Golden Sun is a captivating World War II historical love story set against the raw beauty of
Australia
. Rose Hamilton is in desperate need of a
life
change when she reads the want ad in the newspaper for a companion needed to escort a young orphaned child to
Australia
. There are so many reasons she should ignore the advertisement-the war, those treacherous winter seas, her family, her fiance... but she can't help herself. Within weeks she is boarding an enormous convoy, already too attached to five-year-old Walter. Unfortunately, the cattle station home of Walter's family isn't anything like either of them were told to expect. Rose can't leave this little boy who she's grown to love until he is happy and settled, and she knows the key to this is Walter's wounded fighter pilot uncle. But how will she ever part with Walter? And what if he isn't the only reason she wants to stay?"--Publisher.
