Synopsis: I grew up wishing on stars.
My father taught me to believe…in destiny, in magic, in happily ever after. Dreams were my scripture and the starry night sky was my temple. Then Mom stopped believing, left him, and took us with her. At the age of sixteen, I cashed in my dreams to pay the rent, pawned my destiny to keep my sisters together.
Now, seven years later, I’m returning home, grieving the death of my mother, and settling my sisters back into the life Mom threw away. I never intended to stay. I don’t want to deal with my father, who is so invested in the spiritual world he forgets the physical. I don’t want to face William Bailey, whose eyes remind me of the girl I was, the things I’ve done, and the future I lost.
This would all be easier if Will hated me. As it is, I have to hold my secrets close so they won’t hurt him more than they’ve already hurt me. But he wants to be in my life. He wants what I can’t bring myself to confess I sold. He wants me.
I find myself looking to my stars again...wondering if I dare one more wish.

Review:
"Can we pretend that the airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now."
Airplanes (B.O.B. featuring Hayley Willams)
What a great story. Wish I May was a little suspense, a bit if mystery, a dash of lust and a whole pile of angst. The perfect combination for a great story.
When Cally and William were kids they were madly in love, even if they were too young to understand what that meant. Before they had a chance to figure it out, life tore them apart. Spiraling on separate paths Cally and William believe they will never see each other again.. Memories of their time together is the only solice to be had. That is until their paths cross again. Can they both put the past aside and move forward? Has too much time passed to rekindle what they once had? Are there enough stars in the night sky to make all their wishes come true?
