Three Wishes

By Barbara Delinsky


What if wishes really could come true? What would you wish for?

Enticing premise, bestselling author Barbara Delinsky delivers a spellbinding story that will melt even the hardest of hearts.
When a surprise October blizzard hits Panama, Vermont, blanketing the sleepy little town with several feet of snow, it creates a scene so tranquil no one suspects the tragedy to come, least of all Bree Miller. Slipping and sliding as she walks home from the diner where she works, she barely has time to notice the runaway truck skidding toward her until it is too late. She awakens in the hospital, remembering little of the accident or the hours thereafter, except for a very bright light, a beatific smile, and a mystical nonvoice granting her three wishes.
Tom Gates is the accident's only witness. New to town, he is a bestselling author who turned his back on his family for the sake of fortune and fame. Now, rejected by both family and friends, he is in Panama to rethink his life. Bree becomes his cause.
For self-sufficient, independent Bree, life changes dramatically. Suddenly within her grasp are those things she always wanted most--a home, a soul mate, a family. But there is unfinished business: the mother who abandoned Bree when she was an infant, the family Tom misses deeply, the child doctors say Bree can never have. And there are still those three wishes.

But ..are those wishes real? And if they are, at what price?

Barbara Delinsky has written far more than a love story. Three Wishes is a novel of redemption. It speaks of courage, of second chances, of the importance of home and putting down roots. With a wonderful cast of characters in a town that revives the true meaning of community, Three Wishes is about people who take risks to live their dreams. It will move readers to tears even as it makes their spirits soar.

With this novel of rare beauty, Barbara Delinsky restores our faith in the possibility of finding heaven on earth. She succeeds in making us believe. . . again.
