One Last Wish

By: Samantha Baca

Narrated by: Kim Rossi

Sometimes, one last wish is all that we get....

It should have been me.
I was supposed to be the one who died in the car accident that day.
Not my best friend who had a family to leave behind.
But like most things, life is unpredictable and filled with unexpected changes.
Like stepping in to help her family pick up the pieces after their world shattered around them.
Or the epic cross country road trip that we took to honor the bucket list she made when she was a little girl.
I never expected to become a part of their family along the way.
I tried to keep the lines clear and avoided getting too close.
After all, it wasn’t just my heart that I feared breaking.
I wasn’t looking for love, but that didn’t mean that it didn’t find me.

Great story with lots of different emotions

This story really hit home as I lost my best friend of 18+ years in a MVA. It was a great book, emotional. But definitely worth the listen.

This book had all the feels

Having lost a really close friend several years ago, I could absolutely relate to the main character. I felt her anguish, her anger — the pain was so real it cut deep. I cried, I laughed, and at times I just sat with the weight of it all. The romance was tastefully done and never overpowered the story, which I appreciated. It was beautifully written and felt incredibly authentic, like the author had lived through some of these experiences herself. This story will stay with me for a long time.

Emotional

One Last Wish kept me emotionally engaged from beginning to end. It was so genuine and heartfelt and I was aching for more of Emma and John’s story as the story concluded. So many tears were shed as I listened to Emma convince herself she didn’t deserve anyone’s love because of all the past tragedies she experienced. Such a beautiful and endearing story that we could all learn a little from.

Kim Rossi did a fabulous job with her tone, pace, and voicing multiple characters throughout the story.

Five stars to everyone involved!

All the feels!

This is a story full of angst about friendship, love, and healing told by a fantastic narrator. A must listen if you want all the feels, but make sure you have kleenex.

Emotional

I absolutely love everything Samantha has written. Not going to lie I was not expecting this book. I didn’t know what to expect but getting a gut punch in the feels wasn’t it. This was so different from her normal but just like everything else I have read; I couldn’t stop. I had to know what was happening and what was to come. I fell in love with every character and just observed every word. This story was so emotional and so powerful. The narrator did an amazing job. She was able to make slight adjustments to her voice to change them up for each character which made it easier to fall into the story. Seriously, such a good story!
