So discovers single mum Paige when she and her three children arrive from the city seeking refuge. Paige's only respite from child care and loneliness is the Tuesday gym club, where she had feared the judgement of the town matriarchs, but she is met only with generosity and a plethora of baked goods.

Natalie King's life is full. Some might say too full. With her teaching job, a farm to run, three grown daughters who have not quite got a handle on things, a reserved husband and a demanding mother-in-law, most days she is too busy to think about whether she is happy. But her life has meaning, doesn't it? After all, she is the one person everyone depends upon. But when an odd gift from her mother-in-law—an old book in the form of stern and outdated advice for young wives—surfaces again, it brings with it memories she thought she had buried deep.

A warm-hearted rural romance from the authentic voice of Australian storytelling, best-selling author Tricia Stringer.
A wedding and a will, a bushfire and a baby: who said the country was quiet?
Paula knew when she moved to the country that the life would be tough. Nearly a year into her marriage with farmer Dan, and now pregnant, she is proud of her ability to feed shearers, bake a pastie and fix a fence while still running her accountancy business from home. With a wedding to plan, the farm to run and neighbours to help out, life is busy but good.
But there are clouds on the horizon. Dan is increasingly tired and distant. He promised he would always tell her the truth, so why is he being so mysterious about his late father's will? And why is his abrasive Aunt Rowena suddenly so interested in the sex and due date of Paula's baby? As bushfires rage, Paula makes a discovery that shocks her and threatens all she holds dear.

A farmers wife
This book continues the story of a city girl turns SA farmers wife. I’ve read a few farm books but this little series is by far the best I’ve read. The small details they have covered was amazing. Even the winning of the football premiership was perfect. The story line is good, succession planning is never easy. Well done, covering the story of our world!

A boring story of a disrespectful relationship in a rural setting
I don’t know how I finished this book. It is literally “this happened, and then this happened, and then this happened”. I held on hoping there would be a plot twist. Or some romance. Or an enlightening tale of some sort. The rural husband is gruff and chauvinistic, not giving his wife the respect she deserves. He’s not abusive, but just, barely acknowledges her strength or sacrifice to live rurally with him. His wife somehow just puts up with it. If this book doesn’t tickle your fancy in the first chapter, give up. It doesn’t get any better.
