About this ebook

Enjoy this emotional, enemies to lovers, steamy small town romance by author Frances Dall'Alba.


Shimmering waters … towering giants … buried mysteries

She’s the no filters chick. Funny, full of life and always ready for a good laugh. Until her mother drops a bombshell.

He’s the environmental warrior. Passionate, driven and determined to save the world. Burnt once before, he’s moving on and doing things his way.

So how did they end up handcuffed together on day one? 


Roberta Mintello is sent to North Queensland by her distraught mother, to dig up a small box buried nearly thirty years ago. It’s no help that it’s buried beside giant trees, in a protected national park, on the shores of a stunning lake. Its mystery will only be revealed when the box is returned. How is an impatient Roberta going to hold off that long?

Nate Surrey’s family owns the teahouse that has graced Lake Barrine for nearly one hundred years. When he catches Roberta digging around the bases of the twin monoliths, he demands answers.

Roberta follows no rules, especially the ones telling her to stay away from the drop-dead gorgeous Nate. But the rules change when the box is found. The chemistry ramps up between them, and Roberta shouldn’t have started what she can’t handle.

When the mystery blows up in her face, she’s not prepared for the hurt and lies. Not even Nate can fix it, because she’s not staying long enough to find out.


The Glittering Star is the second novel in the Sway of The Stars Series, although all books in the Sway of The Stars Series can be read as standalones.

A very enjoyable romance story set in the beautiful Atherton Tablelands in Far North Queensland Australia. Headstrong and out spoken Roberta is on a secretive mission for her mom when she meets Nate. They have an explosive relationship right from the beginning but there is also a spark. This was well written, emotional and fun to read. I learned new facts about wind farms and thought the author did an excellent job incorporating this environmental issue in the story. Although there were a few predictable scenes in the book overall the story was original. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this honest review voluntarily.

Every single book I have read by Frances Dall’alba has been written so well and will capture you from start to finish. I loved the way music was entwined into this book as it related to how Roberta was feeling and I could familiarise with each song. Oh Roberta frustrated me to no end with her stubbornness and especially having a hunk of a man right in front of her all that time. I received a free copy of this book and my review is voluntary
