Under the Frangipani Tree

Cassandra Jensen, the forever loyal friend and qualified counsellor, is always ready to lend a non-judgmental ear to anyone in need of finding answers. However, when she receives an invitation to her old friends’ wedding, her coping abilities are challenged. Cassandra has serious reservations about accepting Cynthia and Ryan’s invite, despite her handsome and gregarious fiance Connor insisting that it will be a great chance to visit the town Cassandra grew up in: the breathtaking Barossa Valley in the heart of the wine country in South Australia.

But going back home means facing her charismatic ex-boyfriend, and ‘unfinished business’ with her father who has always treated her with irreverence. What was the underlying reason her parents had relocated from Europe to the robust hills and vineyards of the Barossa Valley, at the peak of their acting careers to set up an acting school and theatre company? And why had they given up on their bold venture soon after?

Under the Frangipani Tree is the third book in the Julie & Friends series. Join Cassandra and her friends in this roller coaster journey of the heart, set amongst lush, rolling hills, and enchanting vineyards. Experience romance, tears, and joy, sprinkled in the crisp country air.
