The Wish

De: Nicholas Sparks

Narrado por: Mela Lee, Will Collyer

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Notebook and A Walk to Remember, an emotionally poignant novel about the enduring legacy of first love–and the decisions that haunt us forever.

Sent away at sixteen, Maggie Dawes could think only of the friends and family she left behind . . . until she met Bryce Trickett. Bryce showed her how much there was to love about the wind-swept beach town and introduced her to photography, a passion that would define the rest of her life.

By 2019, Maggie is a renowned travel photographer. Unexpectedly grounded over Christmas and struggling to come to terms with a medical diagnosis, she finds herself becoming dependent on her young assistant.

As they count down the last days of the season together, she tells him the story of another Christmas, decades earlier—and the love that set her on a course she never could have imagined.

Such a great story!

I loved that this was unlike other Nicholas Sparks books I’ve read. I loved the different perspectives and the back and forth. So many touching details and just a beautiful story. I wasn’t sure what to expect in the end but it was perfect.

Relations

My husband and I listened to it on Audible as we traveled and finished it with tears. We adopted a child through our church's family services . This too involved a sixteen year old mother. Our daughter later was able to get to know her birth mother . Her birth mother died , but they were able to build a good relationship.

Incredible

Though every Nicholas Spark book has had an emotional effect, none so much as this one. I did not guess the ending and admit that I cried. Some of the emotion was because I identified with the story since I had adopted my son when he was an infant. But most of the emotion came from Nicholas Spark’s wonderful gift of weaving a story. I will relished to “The Wish” at some point, and as I am sure I will still cry, I will know the ending the second time. Thank you, Nicholas, for a unforgettable experience.

I love this book. ❤
