When Sydney-sider, June Hall, takes on a practice nurse locum for the month of March, she finds herself in the unfamiliar world of Tropical North Queensland and animal sitting on a hobby farm. Knowing nothing about the care of farm animals and even less about the local wildlife, she faces all sorts of animal trouble, but thanks to Winston, a pet steer that won't stay home, she becomes acquainted with her neighbour, saviour, entrepreneur, farmer and all-around good guy, Dave Andersen.

June and Dave's time together, sees their friendship develop quickly into a passionate affair (adult themes apply), but as they are from different worlds, neither wants to become involved in anything more than a friends-with-benefits, short-term relationship.

When June returns to the city, she no longer feels Sydney is where she belongs. Will a move back to the country re-boot her career and will she move for the right reasons?
