Momma please stop crying, I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down I hear glasses breaking as I sit up in my bed I told dad you didn't mean those nasty things you said You fight about money, 'bout me and my brother And this I come home to, this is my shelter It ain't easy growing up in World War III Never knowing what love could be, you'll see I don't want love to destroy me like it has done my family Can we work it out?

• Book- Man Drought by Rachael Johns
Imogen Bates moved to the small rural town of Gibson's Find to start a new life for herself after the death of her husband. Tired of being haunted by the painful memories of her old life, Imogen set her last remaining hopes on the little town and, in particular, pouring her heart and savings into restoring The Majestic Hotel to its former glory. But while the female-starved town might be glad to see a young woman move in, not everyone is happy about Imogen's arrival. Sheep and crop farmer Gibson Black once dreamed of having the kind of family his grandfather reminisces about, but he's learnt not to dream anymore. Living in the mostly male town suits Gibson down to the ground...and he won't have anyone - least of all a hot redhead from the city - change a thing. Imogen has never been one to back down from a challenge, especially when it concerns her last chance at happiness. She's determined to rebuild the pub and create a future for the little town. But can she create a future for Gibson and herself, too?
