Triple Knot by Nikki Soarde

Kat Mulligan, a tiny woman with a big personality and bigger heart, built a business and life for herself and her handicapped brother—alone. Her focus is on the positive—and the future. The past can stay buried.

Until her estranged father suddenly reappears. She tries ignoring him—and the pain he brings with him. However, she can’t ignore his proposition—head to the Australian wilderness in search of a treasure that could change her life.

Dane Calder, her handsome guide, is too irresistible for her own good. The two of them connect explosively one night while Dane explains their itinerary. Kat decides she’ll go, but to keep her focused on her goal and not on her rugged guide, she insists her best friend Chay accompany them. He’s gay, and therefore the perfect chaperone. Or is he?

Dane’s desire for Kat is obvious, but his feelings for her athletic, boy-next-door friend come as a surprise—to all three. None of the adventurers are prepared for the secret loves and desires unleashed beneath the azure skies of the Kakadu.
