Publisher's summary

He could give her anything her heart longed for—except one thing.

Alexander

I refused to be trapped in hell ever again.

But even devils have dreams.

If I had one wish this Christmas, it would be to give Krystina what she desperately wanted more than anything—a baby.

I would do anything for my wife, but that was before the world fell into chaos.

Too much had changed and fear of the madness surrounding us was all-consuming.

I had to protect the woman I loved above all else—even if it meant keeping her locked in a gilded cage.

Krystina

Alexander promised to love me forever, but just like all great loves, we had our challenges.

My husband was provocative and commanding, but we’d found our groove.

Our connection was fierce and the attraction unending.

There were no more secrets and no more lies.

At least, that was what I told myself.

But some secrets were meant to be kept hidden—even if only for a little while.

After all, the best gifts weren’t always found under the tree.

From international best-selling Author Dakota Willink comes the fourth book in The Stone Series, a Christmas novel that sets the stage for the final installment of Alexander and Krystina’s epic love story.

Wishing Stone is part of a connected series following the same characters. To avoid spoilers, listeners are encouraged to start with book one, Heart of Stone.

Alex and Krystina's Story Continues

This is the fourth book in the series telling Alex and Keystina's story so you need to have either read or listed to the previous books to fully enjoy their story.

This book picks up from the earlier book and takes place during the Covid pandemic, just after they've failed to have a baby. Covid is yet another excuse for Alex to flex his controlling tendencies. But as always he goes over the top, I appreciate that he wants to keep her safe but...... Alex insists that she agrees to work remotely from home and have almost no contact with anyone before he'll let them try again for a baby. Understandably Krystina feels caged but agrees because well that's just how Alex is!

Alex although way too overbearing in my opinion can be wonderful and there are parts of this story which show that but to find out what they are you will need to listen to this one for yourself because I'm not telling. Once again their love is tested, their love is strong, but is it strong enough?

The narration of this series is by Lacy Laurel and Jeffrey Kafer who are now for me Krystina and Alex they know these characters so well and bring them to life beautifully.

I would just add that having endured Covid, just like everyone else, I could have done without having it play a part in this book and for that reason, I have marked the story down by one star.

Great Addition to the Series!

Alexander and Krystina's story continues in this fourth installment in the Stone Trilogy Series. You have to listen to this series in order. This is a great addition to the series. The story is set during the pandemic. Alexander is dominant, controlling, and commanding. Krystina is smart, and determined. Their relationship is intense. Lacy Laurel and Jeffrey Kafer did an excellent job with the narration! Looking forward to listening to Breaking Stone, to know what happens next.

I love the series but the narrators are terrible. It made me wish I had read them instead of listening.

Alexander and Krystina

Book 4 continues the story of Alexander and Krystina. They have been married a couple of years and want to grow their family. Alexander has control issues. He needs to control everything. Due to the pandemic and his concerns for his family’s health, he basically mandated Krystina and his mother’s staff be homebound, and not go out. Krystina has had three miscarriages. She finds herself pregnant again but chooses not to share this info with Alexander, at least not right away. Their story is intense. Some may find Alexander’s behavior to be a trigger, being domineering.
I enjoyed this book. The story is well written, and flows naturally. The characters are well developed. You can clearly see each person as an individual with their own thoughts and needs. I used the audiobook version. The narration was good.

Protecting the one you love

This is the 4th book of The Stone Series. Very interesting book. I liked how it shows the carefulness of the virus going around. How one with immune issues have to be careful especially if they are trying to have a child. Interesting how a parent who doesn't remember anything. Great book to read didn't realize that it started out during Christmas time. Which is when I started this book.
