Fans of the rural romance genre will recognise the name Mandy Magro. She’s a bestselling Australian author who has sold over 200,000 copies of her books – no small feat! Jillaroo from Jacaranda is Magro’s twentieth novel, and to celebrate, she has returned to the world of her beloved second novel, Jacaranda.
The heroine at the centre of this story is Rose Jones, a twenty-two-year-old who has followed in her mother’s footsteps working with horses as a champion barrel racer. Hard on the heels of being dumped by her fiance comes Rose’s determination to chart her own path in life from now on. But meeting handsome bull rider Ty Parker wasn’t part of the plan.
After bonding at the Joneses’ family Christmas, Rose accepts Ty’s offer of a quaint country cottage on his outback station as a bolthole to focus on her writing and sorting through her feelings. Here among the beauty of the bush landscape she finds surprising adventure and friendships, but is taking a risk on love worth the gamble of breaking her heart all over again if it all goes wrong?
What follows is a deliciously blissful romance that will have you hooked from beginning to end. Readers of Jacaranda might recognise Rose as the daughter of Molly Jones, but though some familiar characters do appear here, this story very much belongs to Rose and Ty. In Rose, Magro has created a feisty, confident country girl whose story was a genuine pleasure to follow. From her first encounter with Ty, the chemistry between them is undeniable, and though the pair try their best to ignore their burgeoning feelings for each other, sparks soon fly. On a more serious note, Magro’s novels are always multilayered, adding complexity to her characters. This time, she examines themes of trauma, PTSD and healing throughout the novel, while still delivering a highly entertaining and captivating love story.
If you’re looking for the perfect romance to curl up with, you can’t go past Jillaroo from Jacaranda. Steamy, heartfelt and quintessentially Australian, this was an absolute delight.
