Jonathan Knight can’t believe his eyes when singer Stella Starr appears in his tiny outback town of Koologong. Stranded when her car breaks down, she is the answer to his prayers. If he can convince Stella to model the cotton clothing his company, Koolwear, produces, the struggling local industry will be saved. One problem. Stella is in disguise, calling herself Sue Starkey. After a humiliating divorce, Stella has fled the media spotlight. A celebrity since the age of fifteen, she is desperate to be liked for who she is, not what she is. Convinced no one in Koologong recognizes her, she enjoys the attention of the local hero, Jonathan. What could he want from ordinary Sue? Falling in love becomes a torment as both Stella and Jonathan find their deceptions looming like storm clouds over their future.
