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?
