(((NOT FINAL)))

While hosting an end-of-life celebration for one of her gravely ill Wish Upon a Rosie clients, Rosie Grant steps out briefly to grab the ice-cream cake and walks in on her doctor fiancé—and her mother, the chief of surgery at the hospital where they all work—partaking in conduct unbecoming, in one of the on-call rooms. Betrayed by those she trusted most, Rosie quietly returns the engagement ring on the spot, left to reevaluate everything she thought she knew about love and loyalty.

As she nurses the emotional goose egg delivered by this latest hit, Rosie is determined to find solace in helping others through her side hustle, Wish Upon a Rosie, a wish-granting charity for terminally ill adults. Within days, Ben Strong shuffles onto the ICU floor where Rosie works as a unit clerk. Shattered by tragedy, Ben sits vigil at his pregnant sister’s bedside after she was left brain-dead in a horrific DUI accident that also claimed Ben’s parents and brother-in-law.

Haunted by the parallels to her own family’s dark past, Rosie feels a deep connection to Ben’s plight. As a delicate friendship blossoms between Rosie and Ben, she finds herself unable to come clean about the heartbreaking secret responsible for their meeting in the first place.

With family tensions at an all-time high, Rosie does her best to sprinkle magic unicorn dust on everyone and everything around her, until a pesky reporter publicly reveals the secrets she could not bring herself to share, risking everything she holds dear—including the chance at a new beginning with Ben.

A heart-rending and sometimes funny tale of self-discovery, broken and found family, and learning to forgive oneself and others, Wish Upon a Rosie will resonate with fans of Jojo Moyes, Jodi Picoult, and Liane Moriarty.
