Lonely in Longreach by Eva Scott

This book is like Sleepless in Seattle, but given an Australian makeover

Summary

Sam Costello is a widower working his farm in the rural Outback of Australia. He's grieving the loss of his wife Michelle and trying to understand his teen son Levi. But Levi has other plans. Plans that involve attending university in Sydney with his friend Maddie. And even Maddie has her own reasons for going to Sydney, but they don't involve university. And, because of her matchmaking skills, she sets up an online dating profile for Levi's dad, hoping he'll be head over heels in love before he realizes what has happened

Sarah Lewis is a journalist with a great job and great boyfriend. But, she feels as though there is more to life than safe and perfect and great. She decides to do an article about finding love in the Outback, a place usually described as "harsh", "rugged", "hard". When she sets up a dating profile online, she encounters a user whose name is Lonely in Longreach, she wonders if this is truly the one for her
