Publisher's summary

What if wishes really could come true? It’s the question facing waitress Bree Walker when she awakens in the hospital following a blizzard in sleepy Panama, Vermont. While she can’t recall the near-tragedy that landed her there, she’s overcome with the certainty that she has been granted three wishes. One seems to have come true already: At her side is renowned author Tom Gates, the accident’s only witness, who came to Panama to make sense of his fame - and who now makes Bree his cause.

Suddenly, the things Bree has wanted most - a home, a soul mate, a family - are within her grasp. But are the wishes real? And if they are, what is their price? As Bree and Tom consider what their hearts truly require, they discover that to live their dreams, they will have to take unimagined risks….

A very good listen

I enjoyed this book very much, but kept hoping what the end wasn't going to be what I feared. All the characters were well defined. This is one I might listen to a second time.

Great love story with a supernatural bent...

Very good and unusual way to introduce two lonely people to one another. A wonderful slow, smoldering romance and unusual ending for a Delinsky novel. Wonderful writing, great character building, and a touch of the supernatural!

Bittersweet and interesting - as expected from the author

Another “romance” novel otherwise called as “chick-lit”. Good writing, romance and light reading for beach reading or rainy afternoons.

Nevertheless, it’s a good listen if you’re in the mood for the genre.

Wow so much emotions, it really makes you think about life and love! It makes you remember the small things in life are what's important, not to be angry and hold grudges forgive and live life happy. 💜

Not your typical romance novel

I read this book by recommendation of a friend probably 13 years ago. If you have ever read a romance novel they are all very similar. This one, to me, is world's apart from the norm.
