Synopsis

Lose yourself in this heart-wrenching young adult/adult novel that delves into early difficult family life from the perspective of a brother and younger twin sisters having to grow up before their time.

At the centre of the story is James, who craves the attention of his father but has to look to his granddad for affection and support.

He has to deal with his sisters making home life unbearable for him as their father favours them above him.

A chance meeting with Hailey while on holiday turns his young life upside down. Their friendship quickly develops into something deeper, but a potential life-threatening health condition stands in the way of their relationship going any further.

Facing this turmoil, they make a magic wish, which gives them some confidence that whatever is thrown their way, they will always be together.

The reader will easily feel some sympathy towards James with his feelings and emotions stretched to the limit, while also seeing his parent's marriage fall apart and experiencing personal tragedy.

The emotional twists and turns will keep you captivated until the end, perhaps touching on personal experience.
