A Whole Heap of Wishes (The Wishing Tree Series Book 11)

Upbeat and easy going, is it any wonder that Vera at the beauty parlour in Linden Falls is so popular with her customers? Not only does her friendly conversation brighten the day of those she pampers but she is well known for being the model of discretion, never repeating the confidences shared within the sanctity of the salon walls.

However, Vera's life is about to get shaken up when she learns that her son will soon be visiting to introduce his fianc嶪 . This might not sound like big news but none of Vera's friends have ever met him, let alone his father.
It's not that she's ashamed of them, just the opposite in fact. But with the legacy of her deprived childhood haunting her thoughts, she can't shake the stink of the poverty that defined her. Now her boy has recently been appointed a professor, and Vera, who daily battles with low self-esteem and feeling like she's not quite good enough, has nowhere to hide. Their impending arrival reminds her of the crippling lack confidence that drove the decisions of her younger self and the feelings of inadequacy that pulled her family apart.

Vera's problem is, how is she going to get through the next few days? What will her friends say and what will it be like to come face to face with her son's father, the man who has held her heart since she first saw him nearly three decades ago?
Is it possible that she can finally face the past that has held her back for so long, and if so, does that mean after all this time, there is still a chance for her and the father of her son? Dive into "A Whole Heap of Wishes" to find out...

Join Amanda Prowse, the bestselling World Book Night author as she brings Vera's story alive in the latest book in the Wishing Tree series.
