Your Every Wish

by Stacy Finz

In this heartwarming and whimsical novel, two very different half-sisters discover they have one thing in they’re both in hot water. To get out of it, they may have to learn that life’s hidden treasures aren’t always so hidden—and that dreams can come true even when wishes don’t . . .

Scrappy, worldly Kennedy Jenkins and soft-hearted Emma Keil barely know each other, but when life throws them each a curve ball, they’re suddenly living together—in a rundown trailer park they’ve inherited from their late father, in a nowhere California town aptly called Ghost. After all, their neighbor, Madam Misty, is a soothsayer-witch, and Halloween is just around the corner.

A casino host, Kennedy is hiding out from a high roller who wrongly thinks she stole tens of thousands of dollars from him. Emma, a flat-broke advice columnist who can’t take her own advice, has lost her apartment, and her on-again, off-again, commitment phobic boyfriend, Dex, is no help. Still, she’s charmed by Ghost, its quirky residents—and the enigmatic guy who lives in trailer 510—while Kennedy is sure their father hid a fortune somewhere. She’s determined to find it—even if it means turning to Madam Misty . . .

When Madam Misty grants them three wishes, they’re Kennedy wants money; Emma just wants Dex. But as the nights get chillier, and Halloween descends, a special kind of magic ensues—one that will reveal surprising truths about their father, themselves—and what they really want out of life . . .

[Laura · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars. This one started out very promising but by about 2/3 in, I was having a hard time liking one of the MCs, whose apparent lovesick behavior was really clouding her judgment in a way that, for me, stretched believability.

Then other matters came up toward the end that had nothing to do with relationships, but more to do with business and the law that I believe were just wrong. And the magical aspect of this became too unbelievable as well. Magic, when it’s done well, feels real and while this felt pretty believable in the early pages, it quickly seemed manipulated to suit the storyline and led to some eye roll moments.

Although I cared enough about many of these characters to finish the book, I wouldn’t recommend this book unless you’re in the mood for a light, slightly witchy / magical beach read, in which case it might be perfect.

Your mileage may vary.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book, provided by Kensington Publishing via Netgalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
A wonderful story about half sisters who didn’t have a relationship and when are forced to connect become really close, “Your Every Wish”, by Stacy Finz, combines the siblings’ bonding process with a mystery plot, some romance, secrets and lots of humor.
I loved the sisters, Emma and Kennedy. They’re so different yet share similarities. I loved watching resentment, wariness, jealousy, and wrong assumptions slowly crumble. They form strong bonds organically, and despite Kennedy’s strong (and sometimes funny) resistance.
I really liked each sister personality and enjoyed their love interests, although the romances are secondary (the story is more forcused on the sisters and on their father’s legacy).
I enjoyed the sense of commmunity and mutual help in the trailer parker, and its lively, quirky residents; Misty is a great character and assumes a motherly and protective role with the “girls”.
The sisters’ romantic partners are also interesting and have engaging backgrounds slowly revealed
The books is a very pleasant, enjoyable reading, and I often found myself laughing or smilling.

4.25 stars: Thoroughly enjoyed this story about two sisters getting to know each other (and themselves) after the death of their absent father. The treasure hunt added a page-turning aspect. Not sure why many readers have it on their romance shelf, because I would not categorize that way (though it does have a little romance in the subplot). I would say it’s more fiction with a feel-good, magical realism bent. Very nicely narrated on audio. I listened way late into the night/morning to finish it.

This is the story about two half-sisters who meet for the first time when their scumbag father dies and leaves them equal shares of a run-down trailer park. Two distinct personalities, each carrying a burden they don't realize they have, discover family comes in many forms.

What I liked about the book was the polished writing that made you want to keep reading when you should be doing other things, the character arcs of each sister, and the funky mystic who leads them to a treasure--or is it? The only thing taking a star away is one shaky premise: Kennedy is employed by a casino in Vegas and is accused of stealing money from a high roller, something she didn't do because it was her mother, also employed there, who committed the crime. I can believe a daughter who shields her mother, but I know a casino would instantly know which of their employees took the money (cameras everywhere) and would have taken care of it immediately.

But overlook that because this is a charming story with lots of feels that will keep you reading into the night.

YOUR EVERY WISH by Stacy Finz is a feel-good women's fiction about two half sisters brought together by their estranged father's death. Inheriting a rundown mobile home park, they embark on a treasure hunt for his buried riches. Along for the ride is the handsome neighbor, the resident psychic, and the disgruntled cowboy who claims a family legacy on the park's land.

We return to the town of Ghost and psychic Misty for this story. The storyline leans heavily on the relationships of the Kennedy and Emma... with each other, Kennedy and her mom, and Emma & her 'boyfriend'. Romance is lightly sprinkled into the story but does not play a large part in the plot.

[Bobbi · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this wonderful story about two half sisters finding each other. I do wish part of the ending was a bit different, but I know it was the ending it was supposed to have.

[Paul · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved this book. Your Every Wish is the kind of cozy, comforting read that sneaks up on you with its heart—and a little bit of magic too.

The story follows Kennedy and Emma, two women who basically have nothing in common—except for one surprising thing that suddenly ties their lives together. Watching them go from total strangers to something like real sisters was honestly one of the best parts of the book. They’re so different (and sometimes hilariously awkward with each other), but that slow-building bond felt super real.

And then there’s the town of Ghost. What a weird, wonderful little place. It’s quirky in all the best ways, with that small-town charm and just a hint of magic around the edges. You know the kind of place where people know your name, your business, and somehow your destiny?

More than anything, this book is about figuring out what really matters… It’s a reminder that life doesn’t have to look perfect…. It’s about finding your people, getting a second chance when you least expect it, and learning how to make something good out of what you didn’t see coming

If you’re into heartfelt stories with just a sprinkle of whimsy, Your Every Wish is a great pick. It’s sweet, funny, and just a little bit magical.

I read an ARC copy of this book thanks to NetGalley and Kensington Publishing. This book was so cute, I really liked the different perspectives and the two main characters Kennedy and Emma. The story was heart warming and a great tale of finding what you need, even if you didn’t expect it.

As a girl who is obsessed with all things witchy I really enjoyed the little hint of magic. It was comforting and a good cozy read.

I would love to read more from this author.

Your Every Wish, by Stacy Finz, is the story of what happens after Kennedy Jenkins and her half sister Emma Keil meet for the first time in the lawyer’s office for the reading of their father, Willy Keil’s, will. As a notorious gambler Willy had been reputed to have millions stashed away. But even a gambler of his caliber can make bad bets and lose the fortunes they’ve gained. Instead of millions, Willy has left the girls a trailer park in need of a lot of repairs outside of Ghost, CA, and a few thousand dollars.

For Kennedy this comes as quite a blow. Due to her mother Madge’s creative bookkeeping, one of the high rollers Kennedy works with at a Las Vegas casino has come up $30,000 short and Madge and boyfriend Max are on an expensive vacation south of the border. With the client and police closing in, Kennedy is in great need. While Emma needs shelter as her apartment building is being torn down to make way for more expensive units, her need isn’t as great. And if Dex, her iffy boyfriend of almost a decade, would take Emma in she wouldn’t even need that.

The trailer park is home to a host of quirky characters, mostly older with the exception of Liam Duffy who isn’t much older than the sisters. Befriended by Madam Misty, the girls quickly meld into the community. Liam also befriends them by fixing their broken window. But then Liam seems to make repairs at no charge to most of the residents.

There are many interwoven threads in this book including the search for Willy’s fortune, the solution to Kennedy’s dilemma, what Emma will do about Dex, and how the gruff millionaire next door will play into the story. However, at its heart it is the lovely story of half sisters who seemingly share nothing more than a deadbeat dad. That may be the way the story begins, but certainly not at the conclusion. I did enjoy this well written and original story and do recommend it.

Reviewed at Happily Ever After Romance

Your Every Wish is a delightfully sort of magical tale of two half-sisters (who knew of each other but hadn’t met yet), Kennedy and Emma, who face life far differently, are currently living together in their deceased father’s rundown trailer park. One is hiding out from a man who believes she stole from him, the other simply wants her totally commitment-averse sort of boyfriend to choose her. So far, not much is working for either of them, until a decision is made to turn to magic to solve their problems. It couldn’t hurt, right? Right!

I adored Your Every Wish by Stacy Finz from the start. I could see each sister clearly and enjoyed watching these strangers acknowledge their connection, slowly put aside several preconceived ideas about each other, and start acting like true sisters.

While Kennedy and Emma do have romantic encounters, the romantic side felt a bit light to me. I would see their story as more Women’s Fiction with a touch of magic, as I was far more invested in the sisters getting their relationship straightened out than I ever was about the men in their lives.

Absolutely loved the quirky, maybe magical town of Ghost. The town almost became a character of its own.

I had fun with Your Every Wish by Stacy Finz, enjoyed the treasure hunt, and loved watching two women adjusting their lives to fit each other and perhaps, let the right love for them find their hearts. If you enjoy a well-written story with touches of romance, magic, and unexpected connections, then this one would be perfect for you.

*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley, and I sincerely thank the author or publishing house for their trust. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*

[Claire Mc Partlin · Rating 4 out of 5]

An enjoyable story about half-sisters who connected after their father's death.

Emma and Kennedy knew about each other but had never met. Their gambler father was missing from both their lives as they grew up and they both had preconceptions of each other. But then their father died and left them a trailer park jointly. They each though there was more money, as their father was a prolific gambler, who had won and lost millions and ended up in jail, but it seems this is the only thing he had left to give his daughters that the government hadn't seized.

Emma (an advice columnist) and Kennedy (a casino host) were such complete opposites that they took a while to get to know each other. Emma was very gentle and always found the good in people, whereas Kennedy was a lot harder and didn't trust many people.

The parts I didn't like were the fact the Emma was a complete pushover with her partner of many years, who didn't want her to move in with him and was always demeaning her. And Kennedy ended up hiding out at the trailer park from a high roller who she owed thousands to all because her Mum, who worked in the accounts department of the casino, had actually stolen the money the high roller said was missing and gone on holiday with her current partner, but Kennedy took the blame. I found both these parts of the story extremely irritating!

But the characters around the trailer park were very funny, along with a couple of romantic interests for both Emma and Kennedy, and the clairvoyant Madam Misty was very intriguing, especially as Kennedy felt there was some money hidden somewhere to help them all out of their predicaments.

An enjoyable story with a lovely ending.

[Susan McClintock · Rating 5 out of 5]

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Emma and Kennedy, half-sisters who had known each other but hadn’t met until their father’s passing, inherit a run-down trailer park near the fictional town of Ghost in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California from their father, Willy Keil. Willy, a gambler who eventually became a white-collar criminal, deserted both daughters and left them the only thing the feds weren’t confiscating.

At the beginning of the story, Emma is portrayed as somewhat passive, allowing her obnoxious boyfriend, Dex, to mistreat her. However, she’s losing her apartment in San Francisco, so the trailer park becomes a welcome respite. Kennedy, on the other hand, lives in Las Vegas and works as a concierge at Caesars for their high rollers. When her mother, a former showgirl and current accounting employee at Caesars, absconds with $30,000 belonging to one of her clients, Kennedy is desperate.

This heartwarming tale follows the journey of two sisters as they learn to know and appreciate each other, ultimately becoming friends. A mystery is woven into the story: did Willy hide some of his money, and if so, where? I particularly admire how each sister evolves throughout the narrative. Emma transforms from a timid and people-pleasing individual into someone willing to fight for her own happiness. Kennedy, initially bitter, cynical, and unhappy about life, gradually opens her heart to others.

I thoroughly enjoyed the diverse cast of characters and eagerly anticipate the author’s return to the captivating world of Ghost. I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley and Kensington Publishing for my honest review.

In the Halloween-obsessed town of Ghost California, two estranged sisters are brought together by their late and MIA father, in a heartwarming and fun novel by Stacy Finz. No-nonsense casino host Kennedy is living the good life in Vegas, raised by single mom showgirl Madge, Kennedy has been the responsible one from a young age. Advice columnist and optimist Emma, living in San Francisco on a shoe-string budget, has always wanted to be a journalist. Dating her stock trader commitment phobic boyfriend Dex for nine years (nine years!) she sees the good in everyone-even if Dex won't help her when she's about to be homeless. The women, at first glance, couldn't be more different-the only thing in common seemingly their father-Willy Keil. When his lawyer contacts them that they're the sole heirs to what's left of his estate, Kenney hopes it's the answer to the latest disaster caused by her mother-"borrowing" one of Kennedy's high-rollers casino winnings and leaving Kennedy on the hook for over $30,000-or face jail time. Emma, dealing with a troubling housing situation and her boyfriend's lack of care and concern, is hoping the reading of the will may solve a few problems. The sisters are stunned to find out that not only has Willy left them very little money (he was, at one time, the most successful gambler in history) he's left them owners and sole caretakers of a falling down trailer park in Ghost. Kennedy is convinced there's more here than meets the eye-Willy loved an adventure and she's convinced he's hidden money for them to find. Emma, less convinced, is interested in helping the residents of Cedar Pines and improving their homes. As Halloween approaches, the sisters find themselves becoming attached to Cedar Pines, the cast of unusual neighbors and entangled in the mystery of their father's estate. When psychic neighbor Misty offers them three wishes, their lives are about to change in ways they don't anticipate. With a little bit of magic, set amongst the backdrop of Halloween and Finz's charming town of Ghost, this is a delightful and fun read for the season.

Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Publishing for the ARC of this book.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book because the description details so many different things. The story is about Kennedy and Emma who have nothing in common except that they share the same biological father who wasn’t in either of their lives. Whether or not he was a decent guy is up for debate. They both had ideas in their head of what the other sister was like and it wasn’t very positive. They are brought together when their father dies and he leaves them a run down trailer park instead of the riches they were hoping for. Kennedy believes there is money hidden somewhere and they go on the hunt for it with the help of one of the trailer park residents who has some magical qualities.

The trailer park characters were all very quirky and I loved their interactions. The setting was well described and I could picture each of their homes.

The sisters are very different than each other but both have relatable qualities. I related more with Kennedy than I did with Emma. Kennedy is fairly closed off and tougher to crack. I enjoyed seeing the sisters bond throughout the story. The storyline with each of their love interests was a great addition. I loved Liam’s character from start to finish.

This cute, cozy read with a touch of magic is perfect for fall. ✨🍂

[Summer · Rating 4 out of 5]

I tend to enjoy a hint of magic in an otherwise straight up contemporary novel, so I didn’t mind the possibility of magic here, though I would have preferred more clarity where Misty’s concerned. She identifies as a witch, yet her work with the police is what mediums do, then all of a sudden she offers wishes like a genie. I didn’t dislike Misty’s part in the story, but it probably would have worked that much better for me if there were some parameters for her “powers.”

More and more I like romance as part of a story rather than being the entire story, so I was mostly good with the balance of that here, though I would have welcomed learning a bit more about the guys, especially Bent, who, while ultimately likeable, remained kind of unknown.

Money issues along with the quest to discover their inheritance provides a page-turning quality to this one, while sisters Emma and Kennedy meeting for the first time, living in the close quarters of a trailer, believably meshing with and supporting each other in spite of their noticeable differences, that provides the warmth you want in a cozy autumnal read.


I received this book through a giveaway.

[Rebmay · Rating 4 out of 5]

This funny, entertaining and heartwarming book touched my heart and made believe that there just might a bit of magic in this world. Two half sisters, Emma and Kennedy, who really don’t know each other, inherit a trailer park from their father. Both had hoped for something more from the man who sired them, but was never a father to either of them . The two women couldn’t be more different, yet as they work together to solve a mystery surrounding their inheritance and get to know each other, they realize that maybe they can be friends and sisters. To their surprise, they actually like each despite their very different outlooks on life and their past experiences. The trailer park residents are rather entertaining, quirky and intriguing as they welcome Emma and Kennedy into their midst. Emma and Kennedy’s story has a few twists, a bit of suspense and even a bit of romance. All in all, their story is one of learning from the past, letting it go, and making lasting and meaningful connections.

I will happily recommend this engaging book. It is a real gem.

[Katie · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really enjoy Stacy Finz’s warm and whimsical writing style, and the small town of Ghost continues to be a cosy and quirky setting that adds to the comforting feel of her stories.

This book has much the same tone as Nothing Less Than Magic. I enjoyed Nothing Less a touch more, and while this story was still engaging, I found the ending a little rushed and would have liked more development in the romantic relationships. That said, I thoroughly enjoyed the soothing blend of magical realism and family bonds in this story. The mystery provided a fun thread that kept a steady pace combined with a mild undercurrent of tension, while the emotional connection between the sisters and the park residents gave the story real heart.

Finz captured the sisters’ relationship with their larger-than-life father beautifully, showing the impact he had on their lives even from afar. Overall, I’d recommend this as a fun, quaint, and immersive read.

Thank you to the publisher for the advance copy of this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

Such a nice and lovely story. Very whimsical and engaging.

Emma and Kennedy are half-sisters expecting their life to change when they meet for the first time at the reading of their late father’s will. Both of them are going through some personal life challenges. They inherit a trailer park and as they settle in Cedar Pines, we get to know very well the residents that it’s feels like we’re just right there with them. With the help of their new neighbors and a little magic they begin to uncover the mystery of the hidden fortune they suspect their father may have left behind for them to find, only it might not be an easy task.

I loved the story and how it unfolded. The characters backgrounds and motivations are well developed and you grow to really care about them and the choices they make. And I loved Misty, Liam and Ben 💕

If you’re looking for a cozy read with magical touches, whimsical vibes, family bounds, heartfelt storyline and in fall season, this book is the perfect pick.

Half sisters Kennedy and Emma come together after their father's death to deal with their inheritance: a run down tailor park.

I'm on middle ground with this one. There were some things that I loved and some that I wish I liked more. What I liked: Emma was the character that I liked the most. Her desire to build a relationship with Kennedy and keep some kind of legacy for her dad even though she didn't have a relationship with him was investing. She really has a heart of gold. I also really liked all of the side characters in the trailer park. They had me cracking up at times. The magical realism in this was also really well done.
What I wasn't a huge fan of: Kennedy annoyed me a lot of the times. I wanted to connect with her but it was really hard. She bulldozes over everyone. Also, this wasn't really a romance. It is a great story about the sisters and their (mis)adventures in trying to find their father's hidden money, but I wouldn't call this a romance even though there is some romance aspects to this. This would fall more under drama or woman's fiction.

All in all, this was a good dramedy about finding sisters as adults.

Thank you to the author and publisher for the gifted copy!

[Angela · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a lovely story of Emma and Kennedy – which honestly surprises me to say, as I did not much care for Kennedy for a while. Raised by a selfish, careless mother, she’s not really learned to be nice. Kennedy has a lot of resentment – over her half-sister Emma, their father’s behavior, her mother’s bad choices, and life in general, even though she thinks she’s been pretty content with her life.
When Kennedy is at her lowest point, however, it’s Emma who helps her, lifts her up, and convinces her to open her eyes to the chance she’s been given. They throw themselves into solving the mystery of their father’s missing money and along the way meet a crazy crew of trailer park tenants who just might become important to them. There’s some tampering from beyond the grave, and hints from a psychic, people who are not quite what they seem, and an unequivocally happy ending. Kennedy learns a lot about herself and what real happiness looks like, and Emma grows some too. An overall satisfying read that I’ll definitely want to revisit regularly.

[Debra Jo Reads · Rating 4 out of 5]

Such a wonderful surprise!! Familiar bonds, light romance, humor, strength, and a slight magical vibe all come together to make this book a terrific read.

When a notorious gambler dies, his 2 daughters (half sisters that have never met), come together at his Will reading. He was never in their lives but has bequeathed his assets to them. While they both have very different views, one full of sentiment and the other wanting money, they are both equally shocked to see what is left for them.

While on an extreme financial deadline, they must decide what to do with the assets they have. What they don't plan on finding, the biggest asset which is each other.

Both humorous and heartfelt, the journey through their experience was a pleasure. While tagged in the Fantasy genre, there is a small magical overtone to the story, I would call it more Magical Realism than Fantasy.

Highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a feel good read; especially readers of Sarah Addison Allen and Heather Webber.

Half Sisters Kennedy and Emma couldn't be more different. Their father dies, leaving them a rundown trailer part in a town called Ghost.

Kennedy is a casino Host, hiding from a high roller who thinks she stole thousands of dollars drom him. Emma is a broke writer who writes advice Columns. She has no where to live and her boyfriend is on and off again and not helpful. Madam Misty, a witch who lives in the area grants them 3 wishes.

The three come together in a tale of romance, fiction and magic. The story itself was fine but I just couldnt connect with the chatacters.

This was such an interesting read. I loved seeing that the sisters who didn't know each other turn into sisters. I can't imagine having a parent walk away and then gift you an inheritance. Then to find out that the inheritance is a trailer park, oh my gosh my mind would be so blown and just angry. The ending was great, and I would love to see more from the sisters. The whole time I was reading I was wondering what would happen with the different aspects throughout the book. The trailer park residences are very interesting, and they definitely make the book that much better. If you're looking for a good, interesting book that has some twists and mysteries this book is for you.

Kennedy and Emma learn their estranged father died and she hoping for a windfall from his estate.

What they find is the opposite of what thy expected. Forced to pool together to investigate their inheritance, they start to learn about themselves through each others eyes.

Emma, the advice columnist realizes she's been turning a blind eye to her life while Kennedy is trying to maintain appearances while her life is crumbling due to her mother's choices.

I enjoyed the adventure aspect with the mystery twists and finding what's right. Misty and the trailer park characters were a quirky addition.

What a great read. Emma and Kennedy are both amazing characters who at first seem so much at odds with each other. When the father neither of them have known dies leaving them a broken down trailer park, they are thrown together and must work with each other to solve a mystery and in the process come to care very much for each other. Will it all work out for them both? This is a must read with quirky characters and an amazing ending. I highly recommend this book. I did win an ARC autographed by Stacy Finz.
