Through thick and thin, heels and flats, our secrets stay within. We're not just friends, we're sisters, too. Bound by blood until the end. On the surface life seems pretty good for the three Haines sisters. So many wishes have already come true for Ava, Holly, and Tessa. However, things aren't always as they appear. Dreams were given up over the years, while others still remain unfulfilled and out of reach. And what about unexpected wishes? The ones nobody ever thought they'd have to hope for-the ones that will leave them shaken to the core, wondering what lies ahead. They've always been able to pull through thanks to the support they give each other, yet sometimes, even a sisterly bond isn't enough. Will Ava, Holly, and Tessa see their ultimate wishes finally come true? Due to language, this book is recommended to ages 17+

Can a broken heart be mended? Tessa Haines never imagined she'd be a single mom at the age of twenty-two. Jilted at the altar by her college boyfriend, she has no choice but to drop her dreams of a career in the theater for a more lucrative job in finance. Between working overtime for her unappreciative and over-demanding boss and taking care of her daughter, Tessa has no time for a social life. Nor is she anxious to have one. Men can't be trusted. Period. However, when Todd Mitchell, the handsome assistant of one of her wealthy clients comes to her office, she begins to have second thoughts. Is it safe to let Todd into her heart, or will her heart and wishes be broken once again?

Do you ever really forget your first kiss? Holly Haines first met Ben Oakes when she was just sixteen years old. For Holly, it was love at first kiss-at least in her sixteen-year-old mind. Sadly though, Ben didn't seem quite as interested. When a chance meeting reunites them ten years later, Holly discovers he had feelings for her all along. However, not everything is as simple as it seems when she realizes they can't be together. Is fate playing a cruel joke on them, or will Holly find a way to make all her wishes come true?

Will all her wishes come true? Ava Haines has big plans for her life. Her short-term goals include passing statistics (on the third try), graduating college on time, and securing a job in the art gallery on Main Street. Her long-term goal is to one day own an art gallery of her very own. Oh sure, she would some day like to fall in love and get married, but all of that is secondary to making sure her other goals are in line. Fellow student Max Wallis and esteemed photographer Thomas Malloy are just minor distractions she is more than capable of handling. She's entitled to a little fun once in a while, right? However, as reality takes a tumble, Ava begins to wonder if she really can manage it all. Warning: This book has brief references to an attempted sexual assault. Although there are no explicit details, readers sensitive to being triggered by such references should exercise caution.
