Another wonder heart warming addition to the Outback Brides Return to Wirralong. Alice is on the trip of her life alone in Australia when she has car trouble, a couple comes to the rescue only to leave her mugged and no car. Local, Tom comes to her rescue and takes her into Wirralong. Tom is caring for his deceased brother's two little girls and needs help. The perfect opportunity to hire Alice to help him. So enjoyed this story full of emotion, yes, I did shed a tear or two. Loved the chemistry between Alice and Tom. The descriptive writing makes you feel like you are in the Outback. I highly recommend this story along with the other books in this series.

Alice and Tom’ s story in A Nanny Called Alice by Barbara Hannay, book four in the Outback Brides Return series is a tale filled with emotions, responsibilities, family, the need to be independent, and love. After getting mugged and car jacked in the Australian outback while on vacation, Alice Trembath has two choices; call her parents and prove them right or take a job as a nanny on a nearby cattle station. Needing to prove her independence she takes the position, even though she is not qualified. Quickly she becomes enmeshed in the lives and healing of Tom Braydon’s two orphaned nieces as well as accepted by the people of Wirralong, the nearby town. Being the younger son, Tom established his own business in Sydney, but with the death of his brother Tom is not only running his business, but took in his orphaned nieces and managing his brother’s cattle station. Tom badly needs Alice’s help, hoping she can adjust to taking care of young children and living in the outback. With his juggling so many demands Tom does not need the distraction of a romance; yet fate has other plans. Alice and Tom, despite trying to ignore the magnetism and sizzling chemistry between them, find love and two little orphaned girls making other plans for them. Sometimes the best plans are to follow your heart. Ms Hannay wrote a wonderful and sweet story that is definitely not to be missed. She provided a tale rich with sizzling chemistry, adventures, and charming characters giving Alice and Tom, and 2 little girls, a chance to discover they are perfect for each other. I highly recommend A Nanny Called Alice to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Another great heart-warming addition to the Outback Brides Return to Wirralong series. The fourth book in the series A Nanny Called Alice by Barbara Hannay. A fast paced story. I've enjoyed the setting of Australia outback in this series and the storylines of each of the books. I hope there will be more books in this series.
