An Australian historical romance about a woman with a past who is fighting with everything she has for her future. All of Sydney knows she was a convict and a prostitute, but Nellie Malone is now the manager of the 'Tullamore' Inn, a respectable businesswoman who makes her living on her brains and hard work - no longer on her back. But when gentleman Harry Chester, fresh to the colonies, shows up at the Tullamore with papers of ownership and plans to collect rent, Nellie's carefully controlled world is sent into a tailspin. She has barely enough money to keep her doors open, let alone pay an owner the rent he is demanding. The Tullamore is Nellie's home, her hope, and her freedom all tied up into one, and she will do anything to save it. Now, she has to decide what she is willing to sacrifice to hold on to the dreams for a future she's only just beginning to realise.
