Now an Amazon top 40s bestselling title!Dear birthday gods,I’d like my very own Australian experience, if you know what I mean.One with a panty-melting accent and a very wicked grin.The icing on my birthday cake would be if he takes a trip down under tonight . . . My birthday was four-hundred bucks well spent.Get your mind out of the gutter—that was for the hotel.But one week on, and I’m no … was for the hotel.
But one week on, and I’m no longer having fun in the sun.
Because it turns out my new employer is him.
My inked birthday blond.
Oh, he’s still hot,
But now he’s growly and grouchy,
And there’s no escape because I’m living with him.
Nanny to his young twins.
We disagree on so much.
And when he looks at me,
I’m not sure if he means to kill me. Or kiss me.
Or maybe both.
I’m not sure I’d survive on either count.
Australia!
Come for the sun.
Stay for the man. Forever?
Down Under is a steamy fun romance between a growly single dad and his dusty booted nanny. It features a pair of rascally twins, a human (charity) auction, a happy ending, and plenty of lovin’ in between!

Down Under is a delicious feast for the senses that will have you quite simply drunk on love and laughter!
Donna has once again delivered a heady treat in this quirky, steamy page turner set in the picturesque Australian wine region of the Hunter Valley.
From the very first page she plants a lust filled seed into a fertile landscape of characters, that she nutures with raucous Aussie good humour, strong family sentiments and healthy dose of angst and sexual tension that you won’t be able to put down and that will leave you well sated.
Backpacker Amber Hardy is looking for an Aussie experience that takes in more than the sights and scenery and after having her birthday wish granted by a hot stranger, is ready to see more of the country and work a little along the way, and so heads for wine country to try her chances.
She didn’t however bargain for her new employer to be her mystery gift giver or for him to be quite as opposed to her presence as he seems.
Byron Phillips is the absolute package, and I’m not just alluding to that fact he owns a vineyard!
He exudes sexual promise from his pores, such is the vivid imagery Donna gives you of this delicious man – and that cover does little to deny this man is sinfully hot – but at his core he is also a driven, protective, fiercely loyal and loving man with a huge yet damaged heart and he is not in a hurry to let his one night dalliance with the fiery Amber derail his carefully structured world.
The chemistry between these two is off the charts hot and will have you rooting for them from the sidelines to get their act into gear and get their gear off!!
Throw into the barrel two wicked little troublemakers disguised as adorable cherubs, a delightful sagacious mother and a couple of cameos from Donna’s previous books, and this menagerie will have you wishing to also run away to live amongst the grapes and wallabies with the promise of your own Happily Ever After!
This one’s a special blend that will linger on the palate and is well worth a gold medal rating!
Oh, bright heavens! This is as hot as it is funny. (Or is that as funny as it is hot…?) Either way, my sides hurt from laughing so hard and I’m pretty sure I have a sunburn from those scorching scenes. Amber and Byron are perfect for each other and utterly crazy-making. I loved watching the antics of this pair as they got to know each other. The twins and their nana came awfully close to stealing the show and just might have been my favorite characters. I can’t wait to read about the rest of the Phillips brothers.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book.
Byron has stolen Flynn’s spot in my heart!
I FLOVE BYRON!! Absolutely, fantabulously delicious! Amber is fantastic! Smart, sassy, independent, funny. Byron is grumpy, sexy, sweet, HOT. Together they are en fuego! And the twins are adorable! I can’t wait to meet more of Flynn’s family! I received a review copy. I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
I am volunteering to leave a review of this ARC book. This is a departure from Donna’s usual Scottish hero! No matter to me, I like the Australian accent too! Donna always keeps her readers entertained, She does this through her wonderful, real to life characters. Byron (oh my, is he hot) and Amber, take us through the pages offering funny, sexy, great fun! Thank you again Donna for a wonderful addition to my Alam library!
Amber Hardy is backpacking her way around the world after realizing the life she was leading was not fulfilling. For her birthday she decides she wants a one night stand and she finds the perfect candidate.
Byron Phillips overhears Amber’s call and decides he certainly can help her out. What he doesn’t expect is his one night stand to show up on his doorstep applying for the nanny job with his mom. Byron knows this is not a good idea, but when circumstances leave her without another place to go, Byron relents. It is only a matter of time before lines are crossed and they act on it, but can it last?
This was fun. I enjoyed Amber’s spirit. The second meet between Amber and Byron was fun to read. I have to go back and read the rest of the books in the series. Great story.
Dear Donna, can you please send Byron Phillips to me for my next birthday March 27 2021, Im sure Amber doesn’t need to know. It can be our secret.
I have a new addiction, The Australian Phillips Brothers, the bookworlds answer to The Hemsworth boys lol.
I loved this whole setting, Winery, Mum still home helping her eldest son with his Twin Monsters(who really aren’t) Amber the backpacking 30 year old travelling the world in search of inspiration in what she wants to do with the next part of her life. Then out of nowhere the birthday gift that just keeps on giving. Byron Phillips, the Aussie from down under that every girl in the Southern Hemisphere wants to have go “down under” on or with .
Then when he can do no wrong, he just goes and gives her ” the Grand Gesture” the idea given to him by that other Aussie brother we met in Book 1 “Flynn”. What a gesture What a man What a book What a series.
I will leave you with this quote from this book 🙂
“Mum thinks she’s in need of protein. Apparently, feeding her my sausage every night isn’t enough. I can’t imagine it’ll be long before Amber twigs. If Mum was any more solicitous, it’d be creepy.”
This was a good book and I would recommend it. Great characters was a good storyline
Great read
This is Down Under written by Donna Alam. If you haven’t added Ms Alam to your one click list yet, now is the time!

Well hello Byron. And I thought Flynn was the hot brother. This book is all sorts of hotness. I always enjoy a good Aussie bad boy. Amber is one lucky chick. Donna did an amazing job with this one. Amazing!!
