Shadows of Wildstone: the emotional brand new 2025 rural romance release from a bestselling author for readers of Karly Lane and Rachael Johns.

What happens when the past won't let go? Buried secrets rise to the surface in this rural-set romance and mystery from bestselling author Mandy Magro.


Even after leaving small-town Wildstone behind her, Nyah Love hasn't been able to escape the soul-deep tragedy of her dark past. How's she meant to live a happy life when her younger sister is still missing after sixteen years? But fate plays a devastating hand when her mother loses a battle with an illness that Nyah knew nothing of. With no other choice, she must return to her hometown and sort out her mother's estate - heartbroken at losing her longed-for chance to fix their shattered relationship.

Caleb Hart has had his heart broken way too many times. By his first love, Nyah, when she abruptly left town, then by a cheating ex-girlfriend. Now a sergeant with the Wildstone police, he's never given up on trying to find out what happened to her little sister.

Nyah's homecoming is the kindling that soon ignites this cold case. As buried secrets gradually find their way to the surface - firstly with the reading of the will, and then when an unexpected emergency in the neighbourhood uncovers new evidence - Caleb is there to support her through it all. She doesn't want the complication of love, but how long can she resist her reignited feelings for him? As the past returns with a vengeance, they must face the shocking truth ...

PRAISE FOR MANDY MAGRO:

'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.' - Better Reading

'The land is always a key feature in Mandy Magro's books and Jillaroo from Jacaranda is set to a spectacular Aussie landscape ... A staple summer read.' - Mrs B's Book Reviews
