All three of the novellas in this anthology were quite sweet and had something to recommend them. I liked the connection between Ada and John in the Grace Burrowes' story; I also liked the idea of confronting your past. The heroine's job in the Vanessa Riley story was excellent. Finally, the chapel in Kelly Bowen's story made me tear up a little.

A sweet set of stories where a fairy godmother of sorts does a bit of matchmaking and makes wishes come true. All three stories are well-done and just a little different well still sticking to the theme.
Ms. Burrowes' story is her usual fine storytelling; both the hero and heroine are wonderful and fun together. Ms. Riley's story had two intriguing characters but needed a bit of editing - still a fine story. And Ms. Bowen's tale of two people who work together to fix both their problems reminded me of O. Henry's story of The Gift of the Magi (not that it was the same).
All in all, a very enjoyable trio.

Good collection with a theme. Stories were a bit uneven ( liked some more than others) but all were pleasant. A few vocab things that always get under my skin, like using “mad” to mean angry when the English really only use it to mean crazy, but that’s a pretty minor point.
