| Publisher Description: For years, hippie-genie Desiree has been living in a sort of limbo, granting wishes for others while never receiving her own.Then she learns she's finally getting what she asked for that day so long ago while laying in that ditch. A second chance at life.She has two choices: her future or her past. Moving forward will allow her to have the normal, independent life she's dreamed of for so long. Going back to 1969-to when her best friend, boyfriend, brother, and parents are still alive-means she can prevent the tragedies that happened to them. Both options take her away from Kaf. Her intense, exasperating, gorgeous boss. Nothing ever goes smoothly with wishes, however, and Desiree's path twists again when she meets a beggar girl wearing new, designer clothes. What Readers Are Saying"Fantasy at its best ""Not only do we get to follow along on Mandy's adventure with Lexi, we also get to learn bits about Desiree - the wish mistress who I absolutely fell in love with.""Desiree is this quirky, hippy chic genie. She lives in the present with her mind in the past. She marches to her own rhythm, her own way of thinking. Desiree doesn't really fit in, but she has a uniqueness about her that defies rigidity. And she's ever-evolving, always learning something else. It might take her moment to find the lesson, but she'll get there. Eventually.""Desiree even has her own back story that we slowly get to peel away as the story progresses.""These books are wonderful. They take you into a world where you find you want to live."The Wish Makers SeriesSticks and Stones, Book 1Break My Bones, Book 2Never Hurt Me, Book 3Had a Great Fall, Book 4Back Together Again, Book 5 |
