    About this audiobook

    Robin Alexander cooks up another tale using her favorite recipe-love, family, and a healthy dose of humor.

    Dana Castilaw grew up tossing coins in a well, hoping her wishes would come true, but the candy fountain, puppy, and love never seemed to manifest. At eighteen, she left her hometown of Barbier Point, Louisiana, longing to be free of her father's chokehold on her life and with a heart full of dreams she hoped would come true. Years later, she is forced to return home with at least one granted wish-her daughter, Sydney.

    Alex Soileau stood at Dana's side for years tossing her coins into the well, making the same wish each time, a secret plea that she refused to reveal even to her best friend. Time and maturity insisted that she give up on her one fervent desire, but her heart never would.

    Reunited as adults, both women realize that maybe there was magic in the well after all.

      Laugh out loud HILARIOUS! Book was made even funnier by the narrator. That “Mawmaw” was quite the character. Story was very sweet, with the right amount of humor. This was my first novel by the Robin Alexander and now I’m a big fan! Can’t wait to read more from her.
    • 5/5
      The characters are rich and I'm so glad it's not just the main characters' love story, which can be pale. Both characters are very likeable. Love this book!
    • 2/5
      Incredibly annoying attempts at Louisiana accents screeched by the narrator make the Audible version of this book impossible to listen to.
