Resumen del Editor

"Joyfully and warmly narrated by [Therese] Plummer, this is a beautiful story about grasping happiness and joy alongside immense sorrow and pain...This warm-hearted listen with an energetic narrator is sure to please." (Booklist)

This program includes an author's note, read by the author.

From the New York Times best-selling author of How to Walk Away comes a stunning new novel full of heart and hope.

Samantha Casey is a school librarian who loves her job, the kids, and her school family with passion and joy for living.

But she wasn’t always that way.

Duncan Carpenter is the new school principal who lives by rules and regulations, guided by the knowledge that bad things can happen.

But he wasn’t always that way. And Sam knows it. Because she knew him before—at another school, in a different life. Back then, she loved him—but she was invisible. To him. To everyone. Even to herself. She escaped to a new school, a new job, a new chance at living. But when Duncan, of all people, gets hired as the new principal there, it feels like the best thing that could possibly happen to the school—and the worst thing that could possibly happen to Sam. Until the opposite turns out to be true. The lovable Duncan she’d known is now a suit- and tie-wearing, rule-enforcing tough guy so hell-bent on protecting the school that he’s willing to destroy it.

As the school community spirals into chaos and danger from all corners looms large, Sam and Duncan must find their way to who they really are, what it means to be brave, and how to take a chance on love—which is the riskiest move of all. With Katherine Center’s sparkling dialogue, unforgettable characters, heart, hope, and humanity, What You Wish For is the author at her most compelling best.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press

“This charming, often lighthearted novel touches on serious issues and celebrates the power of joy to trump fear and despair.” (People Magazine, Book of the Week)

I LOVE Katherine Center

Another amazing novel by the amazing Katherine Center. I guessed a few of the plot twists, but that’s okay because I loved the characters and the writing.

Especially for the tender hearted or teacher

Attention all teachers and lovers of fiction: (particularly women).
I'd like to recommend a wonderful novel for your summer reading list. KATHERINE CENTER's
~WHAT YOU WISH FOR~ is
built around an elementary school setting, and takes a humorous wise and tender look at life, pain, loss, trauma, grief, and the intential decision to CHOOSE joy in the midst of it all.
Very relatable and I feel restored in the midst of this Covid confusion!
So wonderful!

Duncan and Samantha's love

Question: Is this a true story? It seems to be, too good to be true. I am looking forward, for what I wish, to become true as well.
How can I connect with you the author?

Easy listen

Nice easy listen. There were parts that I thought was completely unrealistic which was a bit annoying. The narrator is good - she is very expressive with her voice, however it borders on being a bit too dramatic (and some places a bit whiny). Not really a book I’ll listen to again, but I did enjoy it and didnt feel it was a waste of my credit.

Such a comfort read!!

Wow loved this book! It made me laugh, smile, and left me wanting to even cry at times. Definitely worth the listen… also this narrator is one of my favorites, I think I could listen to the worst book ever written with her narrating!

everything Therese Plummer reads sound the same, and that made me wish I'd read it instead.

The narration is so overdone it really made it hard to get into the story. Every line is so dramatically read and so "Therese Plummer" in delivery, that I really struggled to get a sense of the characters. Augh!
