Summary

When international lawyer Tilly Marr is summoned back from London to a small town in South Australia's wine country, she expects to close a billion-dollar deal within days. Instead, she's handed an ultimatum: serve as the town's only solicitor for a month, or watch the opportunity slip away. Tilly braces for a brief stay, but life in Watervale Downs proves to be anything but simple.Tilly is drawn to three very different women – fierce matriarch Bev Jackson, fallen TV star Fenna de Vries and warm-hearted librarian Jane Robertson. Slowly, the rhythms of country life begin to change Tilly in ways she didn't anticipate.As the season turns, the challenges mount. Bev must confront a long-hidden past, Fenna must decide whether to stop running, Jane must reimagine her future and Tilly must re-evaluate her life in London. Meanwhile, a day of reckoning draws near as bushfire season approaches ...Sparkling, wise and irresistibly uplifting, The Watervale Ladies' Writing and Firefighting Society is a story of friendship, bravery and second chances. It is for anyone who has ever felt stuck, adrift or quietly wondered, 'Could there be more to life for me?'
