Description

A love so strong it will bind them together forever...

or tear them apart.

1835. It begins with a wish made on Midsummer's Eve, Richmond Bridge, Van Diemen's Land.

Orphaned Rachel, daughter of a bushranger, doesn't know that the man she falls in love with isn't the hero she believes him to be. After they marry, their happiness is torn asunder when Will's terrible secret is revealed.

With Will gone, Rachel travels to the Port Phillip District to make a life there. As the years pass, their lives separate and intersect, but always there is the bond. Like an unbreakable thread, it stretches between them, holding the promise of a happiness that seems just out of reach. In her loneliness, Rachel turns to another man, while Will returns to his origins, hunting down criminals and bringing them to justice.

Eventually fate brings them together again. Rachel, once more by Will's side, longs to regain the love she once lost. But Will may never be able to put aside his hurt and forgive her, no matter how much he wants to. Can they resolve their differences at last? Can the wish Rachel made on that long ago evening finally weave its magic?
