Wishes in branches tied with string. Someone's hopes. Another's dreams. Loretta Thompson is a people-person. She loves meeting new people and learning about their lives--and she has a special gift which makes everyone she meets feel like she's their best friend.

She periodically cleans rooms at the Wishing Tree Inn, and she's always been fascinated by what she can learn from the things guests leave behind. Her love of imagining the lives of lost objects leads her all over the country returning the misplaced items she finds at the inn.

Along the way, she discovers a love of genealogy to match her whimsical imagination and the adoration of the camper she drives all over the country. After returning the last of her lost items, she picks up a couple of women she met years ago on one of her quests.

Sally Redwood was a genealogy center coordinator before she needed a hip replacement, and since she has no family where she lives, Loretta picks her up and takes her back to Linden Falls to help her heal.

And Lois Bryant has just lost her husband and needs a fresh start. She tells her children she's going to Vermont, and while they're not happy, Lois's spirits are refreshed and her mind is eased the moment Loretta pulls up with that silver camper in tow.

Back in Linden Falls, all three women tie a wish to the tree, each hoping and searching for different things. Loretta isn't sure why she's bothering with the string and paper, because the one wish that did come true turned out to be a disaster.

When her amazing next-door neighbor of over twenty years moves and Loretta gets a new...grouchier neighbor, she marches down to the tree to remove her wish only to find it gone.

Of course.

Sally's wish is answered just as terribly, and when Lois's actually brings her estranged sister to town, Loretta vows she'll stop wishing altogether...

Join Jessie Newton, USA Today bestselling author of the Five Island Cove series, as she brings the latest book in The Wishing Tree series alive, featuring her typical heartwarming stories of enduring friendships, long-lost secrets, and created sisterhood.
