He barely remembers his dad. She’s all about community. Can he let go of anger and harvest a passionate new life with a sweet country girl?

Brisbane, Australia. Justin Wheeler wishes it was just another ordinary day. Living with his mum after her marriage fell apart, the listless software developer grew up without a phone call, a birthday card, or even a letter from his birth father. So when the man dies and bequeaths him his rural dairy farm on the Sunshine Coast, the bitter young man reluctantly attends the funeral, intending to liquidate the property.

Freya Montgomery brought her college know-how back home. Intelligent and capable, the determined marketing pro hopes to nurture her agricultural township while keeping the handsome son of a deceased neighbor from selling out to a developer. And when their instant attraction leads to a meeting with her family to discuss a possible lease, the optimistic beauty can’t help but hope she can convince the smartly dressed stranger to stay.

Stunned when he falls head-over-heels for the vibrant farmgirl, Justin fears he may break her heart after he receives the perfect offer for the land. And though Freya is sure their chemistry is real, the sunny young woman worries the dark clouds of his simmering resentment at his late dad will leave her out in the cold.

Will the pair’s passion survive and flourish on the milk of human kindness?

The Dairy Farmer's Daughter is the feel-good first book in the Heart of the Hinterland contemporary romance series. If you like fish-out-of-water heroes, opposites attract, and plenty of steam, you’ll adore Sarah Williams’s small-town tale.

This was a sweet romance destined for a happy ending from the first word. All the characters are really nice so not for a reader looking for edgy or hot romance but the novel is beautifully descriptive of the Maleny region of coastal Australia, and there are some interesting insights into rural life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2018
I just loved this story and all the characters.
Freya Montgomery and her family live on a farm and have their own family business. Each of them has a role in the community and they know how important agriculture is to the small community in their town. Freya and her sister, Greer, went off to college, but returned to the city because for them, family comes first, and they love the work they do.
When Justin Wheeler, a man raised in the city, needs to return to the place where he was born for the funeral of the father he barely knew, he will have to decide what to do with the farm he inherited.
While Justin tries to get some answers about his father, Freya and her family get close to him and show how much his father's farm is important to the whole community.
The longer Freya and Justin spend together, more the attraction grows between them, and the feelings are also becoming strong. But when Justin gets a proposal to sell the farm, will he give in and sell, or follow his heart?
I loved the story, the characters and the whole plot. I'm anxious for the next book in the series, I hope it's about Greer.
I highly recommend the reading.
I received a copy of this book and I'm voluntarily leaving my review.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't Underestimate This Farmer's Daughter!
Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2018
Sweet but steamy, fresh yet with an old-fashioned sense, this fun love story did a great job of satisfying pretty much all of my “feels.” Freya, the titled farmer’s daughter, is hardly the version that comes to mind from previous generations. Sure, she loves the land, the animals, and the wide open spaces. But she’s not a woman who grew up wanting to marry, stay at home popping out babies and baking bread with no thoughts of any other life. She’s educated, smart, sassy, and outgoing at times. She chose the country life of her parents after having experienced the city life as well. She’s also bringing some great ideas to her parents’ farm to help them succeed on an amazing level. Awesome.

Justin may have started out on the same patch of earth as Freya, but he’s been away from it for so long that he feels absolutely no connection to it at all. He’s a total city guy: loves the hustle and noise of the city as well as the conveniences cities offer. Living out in the sticks seems boring, oppressive, troublesome, and (let’s just say it) something that an intelligent person like himself wouldn’t find agreeable. In fact, there’s really only one part of this dusty little town his birth father’s farm is in that interests him at all—and that’s the girl from the neighboring farm. He’s got to admit, Freya got under his skin quickly and she’s worth sticking around for. At least for a little while.

Freya and Justin’s instant attraction and subsequent romantic insanity are just plain fun and heart-warming. They’re both pretty enjoyable characters on their own. Together, they’re fabulous. It just doesn’t get any better than this.

I loved this book for the description of Maleny and country life. I even liked the characters. I’m not much for just lumping into bed with someone the day after you meet them, and the next week your should mates though. I did enjoy the story, though.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book I have not read any books by this author before but I will certainly think about reading others when more of the series comes out it’s very sweet but a bit racy as well but I think I would’ve liked an epilogue.

Such a lovely novella about Justin who has just inherited a dairy farm from the father he never knew and Freya, the girl next door. This novel gave great descriptions of Maleny and now I must visit this town when I come up to the Sunshine Coast later this year! My only criticism was that it was too short!! Looking forward to reading the next book in this series.
