There is no other place quite as special as Seattle's Blossom Street. From the quaint stores to the remarkable people who own them, there is something truly magical about this lovely small town.

Anne Marie Roche is the owner of Blossom Street Books, the current hideout for a group of widows who have banded together to celebrate their least favorite holiday... Valentine's Day. Unexpectedly, Anne Marie now has her own membership in the club due to the sudden passing of her husband, and at the age of thirty-eight, her future looks rather bleak.

As if she has been granted a second chance at life, Anne Marie comes up with an idea for each of her friends to create a list of twenty wishes that they would like to experience in order to get their lives back on track. What starts out as a whimsical endeavor turns into an uplifting journey that proves to be exactly what the ladies need to overcome their sadness and move towards a better place in life. From newfound friendships to sparks of love, each widow is able to achieve a much-needed milestone in her life as new discoveries are made and secret desires are happily fulfilled.

Along the way, Anne Marie joins a lunch buddy program at a local school and befriends a girl who is in desperate need of the kind of care only she can provide. What starts out as a simple act of kindness turns into a life-altering decision that Anne Marie could never have imagined. With exciting opportunities on the horizon, the empty life that Anne Marie had envisioned has taken on new meaning and her future suddenly has promise and hope.

TWENTY WISHES is the much anticipated latest release in the beloved Blossom Street Book series by the accomplished writer, Debbie Macomber. With each installment, Macomber invites the reader back into her charming small-town filled with lovable characters, amenable themes, and most importantly, an enjoyable story that warms the heart as well as the soul.
