Crissy Sheets is trapped. Her family adores her boyfriend, Brad, and are thrilled over her great catch. They don’t know the truth, though. They don’t see the bruises she hides. Terrified by the future she’s headed for, Crissy makes a wish for a better life. Just a few desperate words uttered as a star shoots by in the night sky. And suddenly, a new path appears.
Desiree isn’t supposed to get involved with her charges’ wishes. In fact, it’s forbidden. But when Crissy’s wish goes from bad to worse to a living nightmare, she has no choice.
Mystery and fantasy author Shawn McGuire loves creating characters and places her fans want to return to again and again. She started writing after seeing the first Star Wars movie (that's episode IV) as a kid. She couldn't wait for the next installment to come out so wrote her own. Sadly, those notebooks are long lost, but her desire to tell a tale is as strong now as it was then. She lives in Wisconsin near the beautiful Mississippi River and when not writing or reading, she might be baking, crafting, going for a long walk, or nibbling really dark chocolate.
