Flame Tree Hill
by
Mandy Magro
Flame Tree Hill was my fourth Mandy Magro book and according to Google it was Ms Magro’s eleventh which explains why I thought it her best read/listen so far.
In the past 18 months I have read several authors’ works and while a first book generally is okay storylines improve as an author’s body of work grows.
Flame Tree Hill dealt with some country issues I can relate to as a country boy. However, the main issue and primary focus of Flame Tree Hill, is breast cancer.
Chapter one sees Kirsty Mitchell thinking of returning home to her family property, Flame Tree Hill, located just out of Cairns in Far North Queensland. She is out on her first cattle muster when she has to scratch an itch and before we know there is a distressing diagnosis at hand.
From there we follow the highs and lows of an on again and off again romance and insecurities associated with breast cancer and its treatment.
I enjoyed Flame Tree Hill, however, I am not a fan of the topic. Flame Tree Hill has a nice ending particularly as a revelation threatens to break the romance.
