My review of Snowy Mountains Cattleman
It was so good to be back in Bundilla catching up on the lives of some familiar characters!
Rowan has returned from the UK and is scheduled to work on the restoration of the old Russell mansion, Crookwell Park.
Grace has a busy interior design business in Sydney and arrives in Bundilla to oversee the restoration of Crookwell Park. Her mother had always loved the old building and this was something she could do to remember both parents now they had passed away.
I just love a tentative romance story! Both Grace and Rowan have trauma they need to work through. Rowan, a broken relationship and Grace, the death of her parents. And they both know Grace is only there for the summer.
Alissa Callen has delivered again in Snowy Mountains Cattleman! We get to see Bundilla's beautiful sense of community and kinship and the gorgeous snowy mountains region in all its glory through a summer season. There are characters we have grown to love popping in and out of the story and a new character to love in Grace, who slowly opens up to the residents of Bundilla and calls them friends. Who could resist befriending Clancy, the flower farmer from Snowy Mountains Daughter.
Bundy, the town's resident kelpie is back in another starring role as companion, matchmaker and social media sensation and he adopts Grace as soon as she arrives in town.
Alissa Callen gives her readers an old mansion with long held secrets, country life, mysteries, suspense and romance all packed together in a heart-warming story of recovery.
Snowy Mountains Cattleman gets all the stars!!!! Alissa Callen's writing is consistently entertaining.
My rating 5 / 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
About the author
When USA Today bestselling author
Alissa Callen isn't writing, she plays traffic controller to four
children, three dogs, two horses and one renegade cow who believes the
grass is greener on the other side of the fence. After a childhood spent
chasing sheep on the family farm, Alissa has always been drawn to
remote areas and small towns, even when residing overseas. She is
partial to autumn colours, snowy peaks and historic homesteads and will
drive hours to see an open garden. Once a teacher and a counsellor, she
remains interested in the life journeys that people take. She draws
inspiration from the countryside around her, whether it be the brown
snake at her back door or the resilience of bush communities in times of
drought or flood. Her books are characteristically heartwarming,
authentic and character driven. Alissa lives on a small slice of rural
Australia in central western NSW.
