From six-time Global eBook Award medallist, Anne Rouen, comes Wild Kingdom—the second novel in her collection of Australian Outback romantic suspense dramas set in Queensland in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

*******************************************************************************************************************************************

Sudden tragedy places Laura’s life on a new and unexpected path, leading her on a journey back to her roots at a remote cattle station in the Gulf of Carpentaria. While she expects to find the long-lost sanctuary of her childhood, she is instead greeted with chaos and a dream set in ruins.

Laura finds herself burdened with the unyielding task of rebuilding her great-uncle’s cattle station, where the anticipated struggles of this harsh environment are superseded by a more imminent danger in the form of a cunning, daring stock thief who will stop at nothing to break her.

Strong-willed and determined, Laura digs in her heels to battle all obstacles in order to keep the station afloat. But all too soon, she faces the greatest challenge of all: desperately trying to stop herself from falling for the one man she can’t be sure she can trust.

Is Laura in love with a traitor, and is she being set-up to fail?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Anne Rouen—the nom de plume of Lynn Newberry—is the award-winning author behind the successful historical fiction series, Master of Illusion and, more recently, a set of standalone contemporary historical fiction romance and suspense novels set in the Australian Outback.

Lynn is a retired Australian country woman, currently living in the north-west region of New South Wales. A graduate of the University of New England, she is a former teacher, dressage rider and cattle breeder. A life on the land, including eleven years in Outback Queensland, has mixed nicely with her penchant for writing romantic suspense in historical settings.

More recently, Lynn exchanged her farm for a delightful small acreage on the edge of a village, where she writes full time. As horses and writing are her greatest passions, Lynn now embraces an idyllic lifestyle, since she has time to delve into the historical research she so loves.

Writing as Anne Rouen, Lynn self-published her historical romance/mystery series Master of Illusion with great success, winning four literary awards across the entire set. Book I (Master of Illusion Bk I) and Book III (Angel of Song) achieved Silver (2014) and Bronze (2016) respectively in the Global Ebook Awards for Modern Historical Literature Fiction. Book IV (Guardian Angel), the final in the series, was awarded Silver (2018) in the same category and Bronze (2018) for the Global Ebook Awards Best Ebook Cover.

Lynn has seen continued success with the Global Ebook Awards with her Australian Outback romance novels. In 2022 Winter at Medora Downs achieved a Gold Medal for the Best Ebook Cover, Silver for Best Suspense Fiction and Bronze for Best Modern Historical Literature Fiction in a contemporary setting. Wild Kingdom scooped the pool in the 2023 Global Ebook Awards with four gold medals (Best Ebook Cover, Best Historical Literature Fiction—Contemporary, Best Romance Fiction Historical, Best Western Fiction) and the prestigious Dan Poynter Legacy Award for Best of Fiction.

Lynn also achieved a Highly Commended in the 2011 Rolf Boldrewood Literary Awards for her short story The Scent of a Criminal and a Commended in the 2018 Thunderbolt Prize for Crime Fiction for The Min Min Light.

Hard to get into

Reviewed in Australia on 5 June 2023

I really wasn’t enjoying this book until the last forty-ish pages and again wasn’t in the last chapter or two.
The tense didn’t work smoothly and the story brought nothing original to what is already available in country romance books.
It read like explaining every little detail to someone who hadn’t ever read a book of this genre - but if you hadn’t you wouldn’t be choosing this one out of nowhere.
The connections between characters felt forced and none of the characters seemed relatable or even likeable.
The plot is alright, just not done any justice by the writing. It didn’t feel like it was writing for the audience in mind and on many occasions I was out off by words that felt they were just shoved in there to sound smarter than it’s more fitting to the context synonym.
The author really thrives in the climax where the writing was good and engaging and skill is shown. It is driven and focused and the tension was palpable.
Overall, the book wasn’t awful and the author showed potential for bettering her writing with more focus on the audience and context.
