Rose River by Margareta Osborn

House-sitting in rural Burdekin's Gap, in the rugged East Gippsland high country, is not an obvious career move for a PR executive like Jaime Hanrahan. But, hey, retrenchment is a kicker.
   Plus she's determined not to spend Christmas in Melbourne with her friends, who still have company cars and six-figure salaries, or with her mother, Blanche, who has remarried too soon after her father's death.
   However, it turns out that Burdekin's Gap is a little more remote than Jaime had anticipated, the house is in the middle of a cattle stations, and the handsome manager, Stirling McEvoy, doesn't appreciate a new farmhand in Jimmy Choos and Sass & Bide cut-offs.
   Soon Jaime is fending off stampeding cows, town ladies wielding clipboards, sheep that think they're goats, nude sportsmen and one very neurotic cat. So why does she feel like she's falling in love . . . with the life, with the breathtaking landscape, and with one infuriating cowboy?

Adapted from Margareta Osborn's #1 ebook novella A Bush Christmas, Rose River is a gloriously funny romantic comedy set in the beautiful Australian outback.
