Welcome !
'Barbara Hannay Books are one of life's best simple pleasures.' Goodreads
Thanks for dropping by my website. I’m very excited to show you the lovely new cover for my 2025 Christmas story One Starry Christmas Night.
The former soldier’s holiday homecoming takes a twist when he sees his childhood crush.
I absolutely loved writing this story set once again in Wirralong in a series called Outback Christmas. Bea and Jaxon both come back to this small town as they both have grandmothers in Riverbend House, Wirralong’s new Aged Care Facility, but as with all good stories, things don’t quite go to plan.
Check out more details here.
And look out for other books in this series by Fiona McArthur and Kelly Hunter…
And I’ll be posting regular updates on my Facebook page and on my blog.
And while you’re here, check out my other 2025 release SECOND CHANCE FAMILY
“There is a good reason Hannay is regarded as one of the best rural romance writers in Australia – books like this one!
What a heart-warming, emotional story (even if you know exactly how it is going to end). It was so lovely to meet widowed Callie Madden and her three beautiful children, fourteen-year-old identical twins Jenna and Grace,and six-year-old Joey, in this novel. And not to be overshadowed, Scotsman Ben Gailbraith – perfect casting!
The setting made me want to hop on a plane to North Queensland. Hawkridge, the mountains, the bird life, the farm – it all came to life in every detail.
A lovely read whenever you need some reality with a dash of optimism and a happy ending.” Natalie M on Goodreads
