Welcome to the book that will hopefully tie up all the plot lines in this series. Readers will certainly get to look at the theatre company's production of The Taming of the Shrew, from the last book, in much more detail.

Harper's older brother Samuel comes for a holiday in Kauri Bay to see how Harper, his sister Hope, and the children are settling in to the town after the death of Harper's wife. Harper asks Sally, the owner of the B&B on Beach Front Avenue, to show Samuel around Kauri Bay, and sparks fly!

But there are 400 kilometres between Sam and Sally when the holiday is over, and they only have shortened weekends together after his trips up and back. It's not long before they both fear they will lose the love they have just found. Samuel comes to realise how much of a rut he's in at Crabbits & Co in Rotorua, and that only fuels his unhappiness. He needs a job and a house in the Kauri Bay area - but how can that be possible?
