Not yet published
Expected 31 Mar 26An epic, soul-stirring love story about the transcendent magic of true love, in the tradition of Nicholas Sparks and Jojo Moyes, from a bestselling Australian author.
An elderly woman stands at the edge of a mountain, touching the clouds. As she prepares to fall into the abyss, she reflects on the one great love that defined her life - and the one regret that still haunts her. If only she could live her life all over again ...
Waking in the staff-only area of a plane, 26-year-old Zara Monroe shakes off a strange dream and returns to her duties as a flight attendant. With a troubled past behind her and a heart wide open to possibility, she lives for the adventure of the skies. When a chance meeting in Italy sparks an inexplicable connection with a handsome stranger, her world is forever changed. And when fate brings them back together, Zara instinctively knows their love is meant to be.
As Zara and Jay fall into the kind of deep, soulmate love most only dream of, their bond is tested by the past, by tragedy, and by a future that refuses to follow the rules. And as Zara keeps returning to her mysterious dreams of mountaintops and clouds, she begins to wonder ... can a love written in the stars rewrite the course of a lifetime?

Review of advance copy received from Netgalley
Amalfi Coast, Italy. Zara Monroe is a flight attendant, after her life in foster care she wants to meet her knight in shining armour, for him to sweep her of her feet and ride off on a white horse, get married, live in a house with a white picket fence and have a family.
By chance she breaks a plate in a gift shop, a handsome guy comes to her aid picks up the pieces and for Zara its love at first sight. In a world before mobile phones, they forget to swap landline numbers and she has no idea Jay Maverick is just as smitten as her, he’s kicking himself for letting the woman of his dreams slip through his fingers.
As we know Australia is a small place, Zara and Jay are reunited, their love for each is profound and I would consider them soulmates, life isn’t easy and everyone has to face ups and downs, challenges, adversity, and tragedy, loss and health crisis.
Zara has a recurring dream, she’s on the top of a mountain and close to the clouds, and she’s an old lady, she falls and towards a man, the obvious reason is she and Jay both work in the airline industry, or is it because of her past and could she be seeing into future?
I received a copy The Cloud Catcher from Harlequin Australia and NetGalley in exchange for an unbiased review. Mandy Magro is known for writing bestselling rural romances and contemporary love stories, after penning so many books and this time she delivers something very different.
A deep narrative that looks at life, is love as endless as the sky, not matter what happens before and after and I hope so?
I enjoyed reading how main characters Zara and Jay weathered the storms together and stayed united, and the relationship they had with their best friends Suzanne and Mark four and a half stars from me and I highly recommend.
