Synopsis

After years spent in the shadow of her movie-star sister, Monica, Anna Vincenzi finally remakes herself. But when Monica is murdered, Anna is arrested as the prime suspect. Fortunately, Anna is not alone as she fights to exonerate herself. When a Carson Springs dweller as beloved as Anna needs help, all the valley's residents rally together, each working in his or her own special way to help one of their own. And what about her passionate encounter with Dr. Marc Raboy? Gripping and emotionally complex, Wish Come True is the most satisfying Carson Springs novel yet.

Goodreads review by Dana on August 02, 2019

Nothing earth-shattering but good enough characters and depth to the stories to keep me interested. A little annoyed at the losing- weight-to-get-a-man thread. And at the later book of a series reading like a later book in a series (I hadn’t read the earlier ones).......more
