Bushrangers

Having long ago lost his wife and children, cattleman Jim Kelly works the family farm in the harsh 1800s Australian outback, most days wondering why he bothers. That question is foremost in his mind when a venomous snake takes him by surprise. Another surprise comes when a skilled doctor is in the vicinity to save his life. But the third, and biggest, surprise for Jim is falling hard and fast for that man. Life on the lam is tough, and bushranger Mark Turner simply wants to maintain his freedom as long as he's able. Unfortunately, being a doctor, his conscience won't let him leave a snakebite victim to die. Before he thinks about the consequences of his humanitarian actions, he's both saved Jim and become smitten with him. But considering how Mark's past could negatively impact any possibility of a future, maybe falling in love wasn't such a great idea after all.

In 1876, cattleman Jim and his lover Mark gave up everything to outrun the law into the harsh Australian outback.

With Jim's life hanging by a thread, Mark forms an alliance with an infamous bushranging family. But will Mark's choices finally drive Jim away?

Is Jim's love, Mark, a greater danger to him and the captain and crew of the vessel than anything they left behind?
