About the Book:
Beginning in late 1929, on the north side of Sydney at Lavender Bay, the story of The Blue Miles started as the alternate first person perspectives of Eoghan and Olivia.

A job on the Harbour Bridge for Eoghan, designing couture for Governor's wife for Olivia, unexpected meeting in the Botanic Gardens. An unconventional romance started.

With little in common, hugely differing backgrounds and obstacles seemingly to large to hurdle, Eoghan and Olivia battle on with their own agendas and issues. Will it be a happy ending?

Fast paced and with a sprinkling of historical facts about the bridge and the Great Depression. The Blue Mile is a story that will engage the romantics out there.
