This Christmas, the best wishes aren't found on a list.

The Trouble with Wishes by Julie Daines

Catherine Haywood is desperate to claim the affection of her long-time friend Frederick Milton, but Frederick only seems interested in courting the new young lady in town. Catherine makes a series of wishes, thinking that is the safer route rather than openly putting her heart on the line. But as each wish is fulfilled, she realizes getting what she wished for is not the same as getting what she wants.

Cute Christmas anthology.

This Christmas anthology was really cute. I enjoyed all three novellas and loved how the theme of wishes was found in each story, but also so uniquely done.
The Trouble with Wishes was a great reminder that sometimes what we really want and need is not what we think we would wish for.
We Wish You a Miserable Christmas was a fun mix of Taming of the Shrew with some You’ve Got Mail vibes. I enjoyed the dual POV.
Pranks and Wishes had all the miscommunication and pining, but I loved the friends to lovers vibes and happy ending.
Overall, this was a cute read. The narration was good, I liked her voice, though in a couple of stories due to 1st person it took me a second to realize when it was the male MC or female MC’s POV. I did enjoy it though on audio and I recommend it. I’ll listen again.
