Críticas:

"Even though there are some snowy Colorado mountain scenes, this fun novel has 'beach read' written all over it. . . . With equal parts drama and comedy, Beth Vogt's debut romance is as heart-tugging as it is funny and it keeps the reader guessing as to what Allison's Happy Ever After will look like up until the very last scene." -USA Today -- USA Today "What a delightful story! From the first line to the last page Beth captivated me with her voice and this charming, funny yet poignant story about letting go of your life and finding the love that's been waiting all along. A fabulous first novel . . . I can't wait for the next by this talented new author!" -Susan May Warren, Rita Award-winning, bestselling author of The Shadow of your Smile -- Susan May Warren, Rita Award-winning, bestselling author of The Shadow of your Smile "One kiss can change everything! Wish You Were Here takes the reader on an emotional journey with Allison Denman as she struggles to find her place in this world. Allison comes to grips with the truth that playing it safe is not the same as living to the fullest-a good lesson for all of us. Beautifully written, Wish You Were Here is a lovely debut novel by Beth K. Vogt that illustrates the plans we make may not be God's choice for us. A fun and satisfying read!" -Megan DiMaria, author of Searching for Spice -- Megan DiMaria, author of Searching for Spice "Beth Vogt hits a home run with her debut novel, Wish You Were Here.

Reseña del editor:

Kissing the wrong guy days before her wedding leads Allison to become a runaway bride. But can it also lead to happily ever after? Kissing the wrong guy days before her scheduled wedding leads Allison to become a runaway bride. But can it also lead to happily ever after? Allison Denman is supposed to get married in five days, but everything is all wrong. The huge wedding. The frothy dress. And the groom. Still, kissing the groom's brother, Daniel, in an unguarded moment is decidedly not the right thing to do. How could she have made such a mistake? It seems Allison's life is nothing but mistakes at this point. Daniel's adventures-chronicled through a collection of postcards-have always appealed to Allison's well-hidden desire for something more. But how can betraying her fiance's trust lead to a true happily ever after? Can Allison find her way out of this mess? Recognizing she doesn't have all the answers won't be easy because she's used to being in control. To find her way again, she will have to believe that God has a plan for her-one outside her carefully defined comfort zone-and find the strength to let Him lead.
