(2024)(The second book in the Beneath the Southern Cross series)
A novel by Juliette Duncan
She’s abandoned her life of privilege. He’s young and rash, but determined to provide for his headstrong bride, even if it leads them into the untamed heart of Australia…
Harry Goddard grew up on a rustic farm with God-fearing parents but yearns for adventure beyond the familiar valley. He sets off alone to forge a new life in bustling Sydney, taking work as a tram conductor.
Refined Clara Wilson chafes against the constraints of privileged society and her parents' expectations. Despite her comfortable upbringing in bustling 1900s Sydney, Clara feels trapped, longing for intellectual freedom and romantic love.
When Harry and Clara's paths cross in the city, kindred spirits connect. But their passionate romance defies society's bounds. After eloping, Clara finds herself plunged into the harsh realities of outback life with Harry.
While they battle isolation, doubt, and untamed wilderness, and their shared dreams seem to turn to dust, will their love endure, and their faith survive?
Alone in the outback and running out of hope, they come upon a cattle drive heading north led by the kindly Josiah Kent.
Their final chance at freedom may lie in signing on as humble drovers, if Clara can find the courage to defy convention and prove a woman's worth.
But is this God’s path for them?
Follow Harry and Clara on a stirring journey of grit, sacrifice, and triumph over adversity in colonial Australia, and be uplifted by their story of faith, hope, and love.
