Narelle here. Welcome to the start of the Falling for the Farmer blog chase. I hope you'll join us in celebrating the release of my debut novel. We will visit 6 blogs in Australia and New Zealand during the chase, ending at my Narelle Atkins blog where you'll find the entry form and giveaway information.
I'm giving away three print copies of Falling for the Farmer to three lucky readers who provide the correct answers to all five blog chase questions. Each stop in the blog chase has a question. If you follow the blog chase in order, you can read the opening pages of Falling for the Farmer. I hope you enjoy the ride!
Back cover blurb:
KATE LAWSON IS A RUNAWAY BRIDE
And she’s incredibly grateful when Jack Bradley offers her a job on his apple farm. Working side by side in the orchards with her best friend’s brother seems like the perfect way to get over her disastrous engagement. Until Kate finds herself falling hard for the handsome farmer.
Jack Bradley knows city-girl Kate isn’t here to stay. Yet suddenly he’s imagining a life with her in the country. When Kate considers going back to the city, can Jack find a way to show her that her real home is here on the farm, by his side?
CHAPTER ONE excerpt:
She had to escape now!
The long aisle surrounded by rows of smiling faces awaited Kate Lawson as she paused for photos at the back of the church, her sweaty hand clutching her father’s tuxedo-clad forearm.
Her fiancé stood at the end of the aisle, a triumphant grin on his face as his gaze swept over the crowded church.
Her father’s eyes misted. “You’re doing great.”
Kate shook her head. “Dad, I’m sorry. I can’t do this.” She lifted her wedding dress off the plush carpet and ran out of the church, her low heels scraping the stone steps as she sprinted to the bridal car.

If Kate ran away to Snowgum Creek, where could she go?
The setting for Falling for the Farmer is Snowgum Creek, a fictitious town located on the western slopes of the Snowy Mountains in Australia. My hero, Jack Bradley, was born and bred in Snowgum Creek. He runs the family apple orchards and owns a hire car business. My heroine, Kate Lawson, is a city girl who grew up in a wealthy northern Sydney suburb.
Kate is a runaway bride who ends up in Snowgum Creek with Jack. The ski fields in the Snowy Mountains are not far away, an easy day trip from Snowgum Creek. Kate could hit the slopes at Thredbo, Perisher or Mt. Selwyn, and enjoy a fun day of skiing during winter.
My question for the blog chase: Which mountain range is located near Snowgum Creek?
