T.I.M.E. BOOK REVIEW
Minnie Darke? Can I be the President of your Fan Club? Where do I even start on how much I loved this book?!
Let's start with three circles... In this story, Marnie, our protagonist, is a professional gift buyer. And she teaches us how to find that sweet spot where three circles — represented as the person, the occasion, and the relationship — overlap and reveal the perfect gift. And this book falls right in that sweet spot where my three circles overlap for the perfect gift of reading.
Here are my circles...
Circle 1: Strong female character lead (flaws are OK and even welcomed... but a willingness to take responsibility for their own life and actions is a non-negotiable)
Circle 2: Multi-dimensional and unique story elements that create a pathway to a new understanding of humanity
Circle 3: Thru the story, we learn a simple living truth... Something that helps us to connect the life we would love to the life we are living
Over and over again in this story, these three circles overlapped for a perfect gift of reading. Each time delivering a little treasure to apply to living a simple life... creating a simple home... streamlining a simple business.
With a sprinkling of the "universe" working its' mystical balance of cause and effect, the story unfolds with themes of family, love, legacy... and the choices we make each day in our life, home, and business.
Perfect for readers who have a big dream... and would love to take a peek down the road to know which path to take...
Just what you need to assure you that a "cursed moment" could turn out to be the best thing that ever happened to you.
Keep your focus on the circles... And wish the best for everyone involved... Where the circles overlap will reveal a clear path for you...
Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy... Wishing you a perfect gift of reading... ✨😎✨

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Marnie Fairchild is the mastermind behind Wish & Co., a successful gift-buying service catering to wealthy clients with hectic and often "complicated" lives. Her best customer, Brian Charlesworth, comes to her with a special request — an anniversary present for his wife Suzanne… and a birthday present for his mistress, Leona.
And the dates are the same...
Marnie is no stranger to dealing with the complicated relationships of her clients and prides herself on being discreet and staying focused on finding the perfect gift for each recipient.
But the universe deals her an unexpected card when she is distracted by the sudden opportunity to bid on the shopfront that once belonged to her grandfather — a lifelong dream of hers.
On the same date too...
Against her better judgment, Marnie makes an uncharacteristic mistake that jeopardizes her business and puts her at odds with Brian. As she scrambles to save Wish & Co., she finds herself drawn to Brian’s son, Luke — complicating things even further.
With Love from Wish & Co. is a charming contemporary romance about following your heart, learning from your mistakes, and the power of second chances.
