After travelling the world for three years, Riley yearns to return to Australia when she faces a life-threatening situation.
An unexpected opportunity launches Riley into her own business, and while life is busy, the unsettled feelings return. Uncle Bernie, her guardian, encourages her to meet with her childhood friend and teenage crush; when it becomes apparent that Riley is ready to take off again. It saddens and disgusts Riley to discover that the kind, loving boy she knew as a child had grown into an arrogant, self-important playboy.
When her uncle and his new wife begin their honeymoon, Riley packs her ute and prepares to leave her home again. With no specific destination in mind, Riley heads to cattle country southwest of her home. On her first night away from home, Riley meets Adam at the local pub. He offers her the chance to visit his cattle station, and Riley accepts.
The attraction between Adam and Riley is intense. When Adam is called to a fire, Riley remains at his home until Adam relays a message to his foreman telling Riley to evacuate. Her arrival at the staging point begins a month-long stay, helping prepare food for tired firefighters and looking after Adam's crew.
Riley and Adam's relationship ends because of intereference, leaving Riley pregnant and alone despite her attempts to reason with Adam.
Can Adam and Riley overcome the hurdles in building a relationship, or has the anger and mistrust spoiled any hope for the future?
