I just adore this book! I have worn out one copy already, and am working on the second. Charity and Luke are characters that I can really care about, and I get caught up in the struggles they face to be together against all odds. There is a minor secondary story, of Molly and Raoul, that I wish would be explored in depth in a follow-up novel.

I thought that this book was excellent. My mother had bought it (she is into romance novels) and when I had finished a book of my own, she suggested I read it. I was not really enthused to be reading a romance novel but decided to give it a try and I must say I NEVER PUT THE BOOK DOWN, I carried it with me religiously so that I could sneak a read every time I got a chance!

The characters were very likeable and were easy to relate to. Right from the beginning to becoming intrigued with the story and it's characters and right at the second meeting of Charity and Luke - you're hooked! I must say that I don't blame Charity for falling in love with Luke, I think I fell in love with him myself!:)

This is a great read and I recommend it to everyone!....

One Wish is a great book! I couldn't put it down. I totally fell in love with all the characters, excpecally LUKE! If I had one wish it would be a part two to this book.

For those who love romanice novels One Wish is a must read! Absolutly the most touching romanice novel I have personally ever read. I fell in love with all the characters and the story that my one wish was that where was a part two to this book. I did not want to put this book down for a second! This book is totally 5 stars all the way!

It's a shame that the back cover tells so much.There's no surprise. Most book covers are the same though.I enjoyed it.I didn't like the descriptions of lovemaking. I like to leave a few things to the imagination. I will be giving the book away to a charity or to the library. I don't want my teenage daughter to read it.

"She was the only child of a rich and powerful rancher."

"He was the son of a drunken ne'er-do-well."

Your almost modern Romeo and Juliet, huh?

I must admit, I consumed this book within about 1 day. It kept me very enthralled, I found myself turning one page after another after another...

This book is a very good, "nonsense" book. Very good for vacations or just a book you might want to read in the bath tub or while relaxing. It's not like reading "Wuthering Heights" or decoding Shakespeare. It's a total relaxation book...

Well, to tell you guys the truth, I didn't really expect the book to turn out the way it turned out. Oh, the story is okay, actually, not bad. A good read. But somehow it is not keeping to the title 'One wish'. The wish was reiterated at the end, like some sort of an afterthought - it was as if Miss Miller suddenly remembered the title and decided to hastily conclude the story with it.

And I don't like it when the Shardlow left and divorced his wife simply because of his notorious family name, only to come back to her a year later. If I were the woman, I'd slap and berate him first before accepting him with open arms. I mean, how DARED he put the woman in such a miserable, melancholic situation and asked her to marry another man just because he didn't think she would carry his name proudly?????

All in all, it's a pretty okay story, actually, but rather meandering. I found myself skipping some pages.

I enjoy Linda Lael Miller, but this one wasn't one of my favorites. I've read many of her books that are in series format, and prefer it to this. The story was nice, and the ending had a bit of a twist. It pretty much is as the synopsis describes.

this was a wonderful tale of a young woman who grew up on a farm and was a very pretty. Then one day, a young man, whom she knew because he had saved her life when she was a child and she had promised him one wish, showed up in the little town where she was living. They soon fall in love, much to her father's disappointment that she didn't marry and old friend of her's.

One Wish was a great read. The author did a wonderful job introducing the characters. It's one of those books I wouldn't mind reading again, I enjoyed it that much.
