South Island Stowaway

It was sheer accident — she'd stowed away in the wrong car — that had brought Julia to Adam Dare's sheep farm in New Zealand's South Island, and wrecked his engagement as a result; his suspicious fiancée Miriam refused to believe that he had never set eyes on Julia before, and flounced off leaving him to cope with the farm and his brother's children into the bargain. Julia felt that the least she could do was to stay on for a few days to help with the house and the children. She also felt that it was her duty to try and repair the damage she had caused — but was that what she really wanted? For she soon found herself becoming deeply attached to Adam's nieces and nephew, to his delightful grandparents — and to Adam himself. Could she bear to hand it all back to Miriam?
