y separately published work icon Heartless St Lucia : University of Queensland Press , 2009 Z1621922 2009 single work novel

At 7, she discovers that love isn't necessarily forever.

At 21, she finds love but it escapes her.

At 35, she learns that love can be dangerous.

By 49, she realises that the greatest love of all comes from the heart.

As her life's milestones come and go, you will recognise yourself in her: her loves, her mistakes, and her belief that she doesn't deserve more. Tasma Walton's debut novel is a moving and confronting fable about the power of the human heart, the worthiness of its desires and the often dire consequences of ignoring them.' (From the publisher's website.)
