Description

When a blizzard hits Vermont, blanketing the sleepy town and creating a scene so tranquil, no one suspects the tragedy to come, in “a heart-tugging story of love and redemption that is surprisingly powerful” (People).

Expect a miracle . . .

Barbara Delinsky’s “heart-tugging” (People) national bestseller resonates far beyond the extraordinary love story at its heart. Entwining courage, community, and the magical consequences of second chances, this brilliantly imagined tale explores the exhilarating question: What if wishes really could come true?

When waitress Bree Miller awakens in the hospital following a blizzard in tiny, picturesque Panama, Vermont, she can’t recall the near-tragedy that landed her there. But she’s overcome with the certainty that she has been granted three wishes. . . . Can they be real? Are the things Bree longs for—a home, a soul mate, a family—now within her grasp? One of her wishes seems to have come true already: at her bedside is Tom Gates, a renowned author who’s come to town to make sense of his fame—and who, as the accident’s only witness, now makes Bree his cause. As Bree and Tom consider their hearts’ deepest desires, they discover that they will have to take unimagined risks to truly live their dreams.

    I read this book 15 years ago and it has remained an all time favorite. A warm, loving story. I have never cried harder reading any other book and I loved it! One of Delinsky's best. Just a reminder to fellow reviewers...please think twice before giving up the end of a story. At the very least, title your review "Spoiler Alert". If you aren't able to write your review without revealing major information, please consider not writing the review at all.

    The story was beautifully written. It was almost spoiled by the hundreds of repeating typos. I hope that iBook will take responsibility and fix this. Still, the book itself is nourishing and cathartic,even though sad.

    This. Was the saddest story I ever read. I bawled like a baby when Bree died, at the funerall and when tom's father and family showed up. Kudos.
