Wow!! I truly loved THE WISHING HILL from the very first
page. Holly pulls
you right in and never lets you go! I was totally caught up
in all the
characters lives and found myself cheering for Juliet along
the way! She
learns some deep secrets about herself and her family.
Everything she
thought was her life was a total lie. From her idiot, soon
to be ex husband
to her own mother. She has been dealt a pretty harsh hand
and now must
find a way to deal with it and learn to move on. What will
she choose? Who
will she be with? You are going to have to read THE WISHING
HILL to find
out! I was flipping the pages like crazy, I couldn't stop! I
had to see how the
story was going to end. Many times I wanted to take Desiree
and shake her
to death! How can anyone be so mean spirited? I was yelling
at Juliet to
just run away from her!
Juliet moved to Mexico with her husband and her life was
perfect. They
tried to start a family but it never happened. Juliet
always thought it was
her as she was getting up there in age. Turns out it was
all Michael, her
soon to be ex husband. You wont believe what he pulled on
her. She
continues to stay in Mexico after her marriage falls apart,
trying to paint,
and her career flourishes. Then her Mom, Desiree gets sick
and she flies
home to take care of her.
While she is there she learns so many things that were kept
from her. Her
mother wasn't very much of a mother to her and her brother
Will. She also
learns the reason for that wasn't just because she was an
actress. She
was hiding a deep deep secret. Juliet,also learns that she
has an Aunt who
has been living very close to her and her mother. Seems
Like every time she turns around another secret is revealed
to her and how
she deals with all of this is beyond me. What would you do
if you suddenly
found out your life was nothing like you knew it to be?
THE WISHING HILL deals with family, love, secrets, choices,
forgiveness,
and learning about your past and moving on. Secrets can be a
very bad
thing and can lead to a life time of regrets. I loved this
book and can't wait
to read more by Holly!
Years ago, Juliet Clark gave up her life in California to
follow the man she loved to Mexico and pursue her dream of
being an artist. Now her marriage is over, and she’s alone,
selling watercolors to tourists on the Puerto Vallarta
boardwalk.
When her brother asks her to come home to wintery New
England and care for their ailing mother, a flamboyant
actress with a storied past, Juliet goes reluctantly. She
and her self-absorbed mother have always clashed. Plus,
nobody back home knows about her divorce—or the fact that
she’s pregnant and her ex-husband is not the father.
Juliet intends to get her mother back on her feet and
return to Mexico fast, but nothing goes as planned. Instead
she meets a man who makes her question every choice and
reawakens her spirit, even as she is being drawn into a
long-running feud between her mother and a reclusive
neighbor. Little does she know that these relationships hold
the key to shocking secrets about her family and herself
that have been hiding in plain sight.…
