The Series
The Montgomery
Legacy
Five siblings. One farm. A legacy built on sacrifice, secrets, and the kind of love that refuses to stay inside the lines drawn for it.
Each book stands alone — but the Montgomery family ties them together. From the Queensland countryside to the streets of New York, every story is shaped by the farm, the family, and the weight of what it means to carry a name.

About
Monique Pater
Monique Pater is an Australian author writing romance stories rooted in faith, family, and the kind of love that asks you to be brave. Her debut series, The Montgomery Legacy, follows five siblings across five very different love stories — each shaped by the farm, the family, and the legacy they were born into.
She writes closed-door romance because she believes the most electric moments happen in the space between what is said and what is felt. Her books are for readers who want to feel everything — without crossing the door.
Based in Australia. Fuelled by espresso martinis and a deep conviction that a good story can change the way you see yourself.
