Nothing about her says cute. Everything about her says sex. And mine. I never thought I’d see her again. Didn’t think I wanted to. But the moment Cally Fisher returns to New Hope, I know I could forgive her the most unthinkable secret, if only she would tell me. This time, I’m fighting for her. After seven years. After breaking his heart and dismissing my own, I’m still very much his. I never intended to return home, but to help my sisters, I’ll confront my past…and William Bailey, the man whose eyes remind me of the girl I was, the things I’ve done, and the future I’ve lost. This would all be easier if William hated me. But he wants to be in my life, my secrets be damned. If he learns the truth, it will destroy him. ~ ~ ~ Explore Love Unbound, the series of books set in New Hope and about the characters readers have come to love.

fantastic!
I love the way the author has been able to talk about rought subject as prostitution.
it was beautifully approched.
Will made my heart melt, and as usual I've got hard time dealing with the female character's behavior
why cally why are you acting like that, and more important HOW?

ok, good book, love the series

    "She can make you move, but she can't take you away from me. You're mine. In New Hope, in Nevada, in Timbuktu, you'll always be mine."
  

After the death of their mother, Cally returns to New Hope with her sisters. She's running away from the life she's led since she was forced to leave seven years ago. She's keeping secrets. Cally doesn't plan to stay in town long. She can't bear the thought of facing Will again after all this time, not considering how things ended between them. Despite the time and distance, she still has strong feelings for him, but can't imagine being with him again after all these years. She's not the girl he once knew anymore. She doesn't want him to know the girl she's become. 

  
    "After seven years. After the lamest breakup in the history of breakups. After breaking his heart and dismissing my own, I'm still very much his." 
  

Will doesn't know what Cally's life has been like since she left him. He doesn't know the real reason she broke up with him or the decisions she's had to make. All he knows is that his feelings for her, his attraction to her, is just as strong as it was when they were last together. TIme and distance can't change the trajectory of true love permanently. After a couple encounters, it's apparent she feels the same way. They have issues to overcome, but it's possible if they're both willing to try. 

  
    "How can he affect me so much more than any other man I've ever been with? He's always been the standard by which all other men have been measured and come up short."
  

At its core, Wish I May is a story of family, true love, forgiveness and second chances. There are many deeper issues within, but these are the ones that stood out the most for me. The characters were charming. Will was absolutely swoon-worthy. I just wanted to hug him and tell him it would all be ok. It's not often in books that you find the guy is the one who desperately wants to be in a relationship. He stands out from the crowd that way. He's sexy and sweet and swoony. I liked Cally. She was conflicted about so much, but she was still strong. She was determined to give her sisters a good life, despite what she had to give up to do so. While I might question the lengths she went to, there's no doubt she had her sisters' best interest in mind the whole time. Desperation drives people to extreme lengths. I loved her sisters, especially Drew. She seemed to always be there to break then tension when things got to be too much. I feel like I could be friends with each and every one of the characters in this book.

If you're looking for an easy, relatively angst-free story with some heat, you should definitely give this one a try. With strong characters and sweet romance; hot sexy scenes and moments that brought a tear to my eye, this book had it all. 

I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. All quotes come from the review copy and may differ from the final version.
