About this listen

What if wishes really could come true? It’s the question facing waitress Bree Walker when she awakens in the hospital following a blizzard in sleepy Panama, Vermont. While she can’t recall the near-tragedy that landed her there, she’s overcome with the certainty that she has been granted three wishes. One seems to have come true already: At her side is renowned author Tom Gates, the accident’s only witness, who came to Panama to make sense of his fame - and who now makes Bree his cause.

Suddenly, the things Bree has wanted most - a home, a soul mate, a family - are within her grasp. But are the wishes real? And if they are, what is their price? As Bree and Tom consider what their hearts truly require, they discover that to live their dreams, they will have to take unimagined risks….

A present-day fairytale

This was a kind of modern-day fairytale, where the characters and the story never achieved any sort of reality for me. Hero and heroine, their love for each other, all was perfection. I never found myself engaged by the story, or the characters. It’s too bad, because there were lots of elements that had real potential: Julie’s story as the mother who abandoned Brie almost at birth because her MIA husband was found, Tom’s drive to succeed and his neglect of his roots and his family, the people of this close-knit Vermont town.
The narrator was skilled and I could easily differentiate among characters. But she often voiced people with a sort of plaintive tone, I guess designed to add that element of pathos to the fairytale. I found it grating after a while.
I love so many of Barbara Delinsky’s books I really tried to enjoy this one, but I can’t recommend it. But of course, that may just be me. Others might love it.
