Jilted

She left him at the altar, but her heart was always his

After more than ten years away, Australian soap star Ellie Hughes returns to the small country town of Hope's Junction, determined to remain anonymous while caring for her injured godmother, Matilda. But word spreads fast in the tight-knit community, and it isn't long until the people of Hope's are gossiping about the real reason for Ellie's visit and why she broke the heart of golden boy Flynn Quartermaine all those years ago.

Soon Ellie and Flynn are thrown back together again, forced to deal with the unresolved emotions between them, and the fall-out of Ellie's leaving. For Ellie is not the only one with secrets. Flynn has his own demons to battle, and Matilda is hiding something from her much-loved goddaughter.

When all is uncovered, can the ill-fated lovers overcome the wounds of their past? Or is Flynn destined to be jilted again?
