What You Wish For

Author: Katherine Center

Sam Casey loved her job as a school librarian, but everything changed when Duncan Carpenter became the new principal. Once her teenage crush, Duncan was now a different man—rigid and joyless. As the school atmosphere darkens, Sam realizes she must fight for the heart of her beloved workplace. Amidst personal struggles and unexpected alliances, she rediscovers her own capacity for joy and the power of choosing happiness. A heartwarming tale of resilience, second chances, and finding light in the darkest times.

Joy is an antidote to fear. To anger. To boredom. To sorrow.
