Don't you just hate sappy romance novels? I sure do. In fact, I didn't want to like this one. I read this book because the only reading material my mother has to offer are romance novels and being bored, I picked this one up off of her bedside table and started to read.Thanks, mom. I have just added Lindsay Armstrong to my list of favorite authors. I was captured by the author's wit and cast of characters from the very first paragraph. It was a peek at life in the "Outback" portion of Australia, which in itself is a refreshing perspective.The hero and heroine are such real people, I'm sure I know them both personally. The relationship that develops between them is so believable, I threw down the book in dismay several times! The interplay between the female rancher and the millionare "playboy" type is vastly entertaining,although frustrating for the reader at times.Lindsay Armstrong has a fabulous ablility to use words to completely overtake the reader's imagination. A few times I thought I was in Australia looking at the vista and had to brace myself for the trip back home!I plan to add this author's work to my bookshelves quickly. I highly recommend "Outback Mistress" to all readers.
