Overview

Dark horse hero; Roger Foster; a charismatically sexy and multi-culturally sophisticated Murri/Frenchman and 18yr younger lover, American Jessica Daly, pass a sensuous premarital 'honeymoon' on the Great Barrier Reef; acknowledging the May-December age gap, interracial fascination and Jessica's baggage with divorced parents. They plan a ground breaking bush pilot business. Roger is an unheard of profession for a 1st Nations man. The couple has two marriages, a native acknowledgement of union and a western civil ceremony/fete in Illinois where Roger, sexily and not so quietly, turns racial relations on its head. Passionate life explains Roger's chequered saga, including racism, lost love, Tantra and past marriage with two deeply loved children who form an immediate bond with Jessica. Jessica learns Australian racial relations, including gender aspects. Profound relationship and business commitment galvanises a man trying to be true to himself and family, straddling two worlds, while journeying towards success. The pair is speculated as breaking the glass ceiling of native entrepreneurship including the loopholes and rule bending required 40 years ago and shadowing Australia today. The book is the 2nd stand alone of the 1986 series and is a modern spice level 2-3 but written in the novelistic curl-up-with-a-book style of the 80s.
