The Wish (2021)

With his new book “The Wish,” the author is back to tugging at your emotions.

Sparks has used the “story within a story” formula before, and it works. It’s a timeline of young 16-year-old love in 1996 and a story of a woman spending her final Christmas in 2019. At age 16, Maggie was sent away from her parents to live with an aunt who barely knew her, she could think only about the friends and family she had left behind. Until she met Bryce Trickett, one of the few teenagers on his isolated island.

“The plot was magnificent and very well written. This is a story about loss, pain, family, new beginnings, forgiving oneself and it’s full of tenderness, gentleness, and love.”

As they count down to the end of the season together, he begins to tell her the story of another Christmas from years before. And the love that set her off on a path she never could have imagined…
