The Wish

Sent away at sixteen, Maggie Dawes could think only of the friends and family she left behind . . . until she met Bryce Trickett. Bryce showed her how much there was to love about the wind-swept beach town and introduced her to photography, a passion that would define the rest of her life.
By 2019, Maggie is a renowned travel photographer. Unexpectedly grounded over Christmas and struggling to come to terms with a medical diagnosis, she finds herself becoming dependent on her young assistant.
As they count down the last days of the season together, she tells him the story of another Christmas, decades earlier--and the love that set her on a course she never could have imagined.

An enthusiastic 5 stars for The Wish! Nicholas Sparks has never let me down and in true to Sparks fashion he brought so much joy in this one while simultaneously breaking my heart.
As the plot played out I had my feelings about the twists and while it wasn't the shock value of "I didn't see that coming" it didn't at all detract from the impact of the narrative.
Appreciate the loved ones in your life and maximize the time you have with them because as we all know, tomorrow is never guaranteed.
"In the end, isn’t that the most important thing in life? To be truly known and loved by someone you’ve chosen?"
