About this listen
Sometimes, one last wish is all that we get....
It should have been me.
I was supposed to be the one who died in the car accident that day.
Not my best friend who had a family to leave behind.
But like most things, life is unpredictable and filled with unexpected changes.
Like stepping in to help her family pick up the pieces after their world shattered around them.
Or the epic cross country road trip that we took to honor the bucket list she made when she was a little girl.
I never expected to become a part of their family along the way.
I tried to keep the lines clear and avoided getting too close.
After all, it wasn’t just my heart that I feared breaking.
I wasn’t looking for love, but that didn’t mean that it didn’t find me.

Story
Being a single mom was hard, but celebrating our first Christmas without my girl’s father, in the Christmas-obsessed town of Sugarplum Falls, was even harder. I knew they needed me to be there with them, but I was sinking quickly, barely keeping my head above water. That was, until a handsome man came into the salon I worked at, needing my help.

Story
All I needed was a date. One measly date to go with me to my company’s Christmas party to show my ex—and current boss—that I was over him and had moved on. It wasn’t like they had to love me—heck, they didn’t even have to like me. They just had to show up. When I got stood up on ANOTHER blind date, I was starting to panic until a gorgeous stranger swooped in and pretended to be my boyfriend. Luckily for me, my ex and his new girlfriend just happened to be there to see it.

Future You here, coming to offer a little advice: Hang on for dear life. This summer is going to be a wild one. I know what you’re thinking: Life’s going so well! I don’t have a care in the world! Wrong. That culinary career you love so much? It’s about to go up in smoke, and your boyfriend? Yeah...he’s a goner too. If only love were as simple as, say, actually adding yourself to the lease agreement so you don’t suddenly find yourself loveless, jobless, and homeless!

The day I left Wilder Valley, I swore I’d never return. My dreams were too big for this small town, and I was determined to make it in LA, even if that meant leaving behind the man I loved. Now I’m back, brokenhearted and publicly humiliated after a colossal breakup live-streamed to the masses. I have no career or money to show for my 23 years away. If I could hide out anywhere else on the planet, I would. Instead, I resort to taking the only job in town. A nanny gig for my high school sweetheart.

As Dad, there’s no room for error, not when it comes to raising my girls. I’m no longer the same man, just a shell of a person I once was, going through the motions every day.

Great story with lots of different emotions
This story really hit home as I lost my best friend of 18+ years in a MVA. It was a great book, emotional. But definitely worth the listen.

Emotional
One Last Wish kept me emotionally engaged from beginning to end. It was so genuine and heartfelt and I was aching for more of Emma and John’s story as the story concluded. So many tears were shed as I listened to Emma convince herself she didn’t deserve anyone’s love because of all the past tragedies she experienced. Such a beautiful and endearing story that we could all learn a little from.
Kim Rossi did a fabulous job with her tone, pace, and voicing multiple characters throughout the story.
Five stars to everyone involved!

A sweet love story
This book starts off with a tragic beginning. Emma has dealt with a lot of loss in her life, from losing her parents at a very young age, and now her best friend Charlotte. Even worse, both events were car accidents that Emma was also a passenger in, and now she's left with survivor's guilt all over again.
Charlotte left behind a husband, John, and daughter, Lily. She also left behind a bucket list. Emma, John, and Lily decide to fulfill Charlotte's bucket list over Lily's summer break from school. This includes a cross-country road trip to visit Charlotte's parents. Emma finds herself fitting in too well to John and Lily's life and is fighting with her feelings over it. When she realizes she is uncomfortable with this, she finds herself wondering if that's a good or bad thing.
This book is a sweet and clean romance (no spice). Instead we get to see the beautiful connection Emma strengthens with her goddaughter. I don't cry easily, but this book had me reaching for the tissues, especially at the end!
Kim Rossi brings this book to life. There are a lot of characters in this book for one person to narrate, and she did a great job at differentiating between all the voices.
THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU IF: You are looking for a sweet romance without the spice, that will leave you reaching for the tissues, in a good way.

Emotionally beautiful
Have the tissues ready. Samantha did such an amazing job with this one. Creating such realistic characters and the story that pulls you in. This was emotionally intense full of tears, laughs and such life changing events that kept me on the end of my seat. Narrated by Kim Rossi who did a great job bringing this story to life.

Wow, not what I expected!
Wow, not what I expected!
Survivor’s guilt can be so heartbreaking and Samantha Baca shows us exactly this in One Last Wish.
This was a very emotional story that gives us emotions from one end of the spectrum to the other. One minute love is blooming around everyone and then the horrific happens. Broken lives left in shambles. Is there hope after such a tragedy!
If reading this isn’t bad enough, I listened to the audio version and cried!!!! Samantha Baca, you broke me with this one!!!

All the feels!
This is a story full of angst about friendship, love, and healing told by a fantastic narrator. A must listen if you want all the feels, but make sure you have kleenex.

Emotional
I absolutely love everything Samantha has written. Not going to lie I was not expecting this book. I didn’t know what to expect but getting a gut punch in the feels wasn’t it. This was so different from her normal but just like everything else I have read; I couldn’t stop. I had to know what was happening and what was to come. I fell in love with every character and just observed every word. This story was so emotional and so powerful. The narrator did an amazing job. She was able to make slight adjustments to her voice to change them up for each character which made it easier to fall into the story. Seriously, such a good story!

What an emotional rollercoaster!
This book, y'all. Grab those tissues! You know when you first watched Finding Nemo and the shark attacks the mom and babies...well, this book starts out about the same way. GAH! Emma is the survivor of a horrible accident and finds herself helping her best friend's widower and daughter. She navigates her way through grief, adventure, her future, her past...so much in her life has ended in loss. Spice - none really, but you don't care because there is so much more going on. I fell in love with all the characters. The narration by Kim Rossi was good. The fact that she did ALL the voices...amazing.

an emotional rollercoaster brought to life
AUDIOBOOK REVIEW: When I saw Samantha had released this on audiobook, I had to listen to you. It's a book I've read three times and I wanted to hear the characters brought to life. The narrator did an incredible job bringing life to this story. It's an emotional rollercoaster and well worth the journey. I think the narrator did a great job bringing life into the story.
STORY REVIEW: When I first read this book, I went into it knowing that it was different than other books by this author, but not sure what to expect. It was the best rollercoaster ride. I laughed. I cried. I fell in love with the characters and loved watching their journey. As soon as I finished it, I knew I'd read it again and I have - 3 times.
