Shelter from the Storm is a contemporary romance centred on Patience Cartwright, a fiercely independent naval officer who is forced to return to the town where she grew up. There she encounters Hugo Halstead, a biologist with whom she shares a difficult history. Their renewed connection is complicated by old wounds, secrets and the demands of their careers. The novel combines romance with themes of healing, belonging and the possibility of a different future. Penelope Janu sets the story against a close-knit rural community and an Australian landscape.
