What could possibly drive a latte-loving city girl to throw out all her new shoes and move into the passenger seat of a beat-up Mazda with dodgy air conditioning? This laughter-filled memoir proves that love is the best reason to do anything.When fate decided to connect an inner-city journalist with an unlikely comedian at a wacky astrology night, a few hours was all it took to fall in love. What followed is a love story like no other, set against the backdrop of the uncompromising Australian landscape.
