Book Review: Runaway to the Outback by Nicole Flockton

  
Runaway to the Outback by Nicole Flockton
Am familiar with the characters and the town so that makes it a lot easy to dive right in. If you've not read the series, it's ok you are brought up to date without a lot of the past events.
This story starts out with Pandora and high end model who's at her wits end. She just walked off the set doing a wedding gown cover for the magazine and has left her phone, purse everything and took the rental car with her.
She ends up in Bunya Junction and walks into the bar where the bartender Jonas is there to serve her and help her out.
He thinks an angry groom will be appearing and she sets him straight. She also has no room for the night and no way to pay for it.
His sister arrives and knows who she is and confides in her that she can help get her regular clothes to wear.
She arrives back later with a bag of all kinds of clothes, in right sizes that she collected from her friends and thrift store. Jonas also sets her up with a room above the bar that the family rents out from time to time.
He is smitten with her as they learn more about each other. They walk when things are quiet at nights.
She helps him out at the bar with washing and cleaning, serving, whatever needs to be done.
She finally talks to her agent and Laura will handle the press and keep pressure off Pandora. Things get out of hand when she learns what others think of her just leaving and she has to head back to Sydney to set the record straight, although it might sabotage her career.
Love solutions they come up with. You figure there's no way she'd be happy staying in this rural town compared to all the travel she's done modeling clothes.
Love this story and twists and turns for them and others in the area. Excerpt of the next book in the series is included at the end.
