If you want a book that will make you laugh out loud in almost every chapter then pick this book up!! I absolutely loved our FMC and MMC because they both are entangled in this alternate reality and they both don't know what to do! I really enjoyed this book and want to read more from this author!

***I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review***

I’m completely in love with this entire series, and Sarah Ready’s writing has captured my heart with every book. *Wished*was the perfect way to bring it all to a close—so soft, sweet, and full of happiness. It felt like the perfect conclusion to a journey I’ve cherished from the very beginning. The characters, their love stories, and the hope woven throughout made this an unforgettable read. And then the author has this very special gift of breaking my heart into a thousand small pieces before reaching the long-awaited happy ending.

If I had to rank the books, my favorite remains book 1, followed closely by book 3, then book 4, and finally book 2. Each one had something special, but *Wished* truly tied everything together beautifully. I loved every moment of this series, and this final book left me with a warm, satisfied feeling. Absolutely loved it!

Also, kudos for the narrator who did a wonderful job with both Anna's and Max's voices!

This Book was interesting, in the beginning, I didn't quite understand it. But when getting into Chapter 2 I started to understand the Wished part! And then I began to Like it. The way the Love grew and Made them unite was just wonderful!

Thank You Netgalley, Sarah Ready, and Swift & Lewis Publishing for this early ARC for my honest review.

A solid romance but it just felt like it was missing something for me to find it memorable. I think I am just not as into love at first sight stories as they are not realistic to me. In this case the MMC was kind of rude and especially to the FMC and she just was obsessed from the start and I just couldn't wrap my head around why. Overall the setting and the writing is swoon worthy and atmospheric but it did not do enough to truly invest me in this story.

With every Sarah Ready book I read, I fall more in love with her mind and the worlds she has created through her writing. Every book in her Ghosted series feels better than the last!

I am a huge fan of Magical Realism in Romance and didn’t think she could top the magic in book #3 Fated. This may actually still be true, but I fell most in love with the characters in Wished. Anna Benoit has the most authentic voice and personality and I fell in love with her passionate honesty from the start. It’s hard not to! She a perfect blend of sweetness and sharp wit. I found myself invested and rooting for her from the start. It took a bit longer for me to warm up to Max, but that’s kind of the point. She saw something in him the rest of us couldn’t. It was her fate to break his impenetrable shell and make him break his rules for love.

I’m still swooning over Wished and can’t wait to see what Sarah Ready gifts us next!

I’m a big fan of this series where genuine characters grapple with elements of magical realism, and this final instalment takes a romantic and heart wrenching look at what happens when wishes do come true. And also, being careful what you wish for. When Anna wishes, in a moment of mad whimsy, to be married to the man she’s loved for years and who barely knows she exists, her life changes almost immediately and it’s the starting point for a whirlwind journey that’s both literal and emotional. I loved the way the relationship developed between Anna and Max while they try to reverse the wish, as his determination to stay aloof and passionless is slowly eroded by her wholehearted desire for happiness in everyone around her. The plot flowed effortlessly and was beautifully augmented by the descriptions of Geneva, Paris and St Tropez; it completely drew me in and I finished it in a day.

I loved Fated and I loved Wished.

Always so beautiful, immersive and unique storylines.

Beautiful writing I was confused where the storyline was going for a bit of the last third of the book but it all made sense in the end.

I really enjoyed this!

Oh, how I wish this isn't the end of the Ghosted series! Each book in this series has been such a joyous and fun magical story. And Wished falls right in line. I loved Anna and Max's story and found this may have just been my favorite. Shhh! Don't tell the others!

The charming blend of romance and magical realism in Sarah Ready's "Wished" presents a fascinating premise that was a good read for me. The protagonist of the story is Anna Benoit, a housekeeper who longs to wed Max Barone, the enigmatic owner of the chateau where she works. Anna is thrown into a crazy world where she and Max are unexpectedly married when her wish is mysteriously granted. The novel stands out to me for its original idea and well-rounded cast of characters, particularly Max's nuanced personality and Anna's maturation. The storyline twists are predictable to some extent, the tale moves slowly at points, and Anna and Max's chemistry isn't strong enough to make their romance stand out. "Wished" is a sweet book with a touching message overall, however it falls short of some of Sarah Ready's other works. It's fun for magical realism and light romance fans, but it might not stick in their memory.

I really enjoyed this book, it was exactly the fun and lighthearted romance I needed. I loved Anna’s character and I related to her in way too much ways. Falling in love with someone without uttering a word to them? Yup! Sounds like me. It’s a fairytale that a lot of us can only -wish- to have.

This was a refreshing, romantic and magical read! It was so cute and just what I needed!

The storyline was so cute and full of a spark of magic. I loved Anna and her story. She was so expectant of good things after being dealt not good things! I loved how these characters just fit exactly perfect!

Anna Benoit fell in love with Max at first sight. The problem is he has never noticed her and she has cleaned his residence for three years. Billionaire Max Barone lives a solitary existence where love doesn’t factor that is until one evening Anna makes a wish. This is a lovely story of magic and passion, honesty and real caring. A beautiful romance that leads us through Geneva, Paris and St Tropez. I truly enjoyed this story and read it in an afternoon, not realizing it is the 4th in a series. Although it can be read as a stand alone I can’t wait to read the rest-Ghosted,Switched and Fated. Thank you Netgalley and Swift & Lewis Publishing

I have been a fan of Sarah Ready's for awhile now. I have also really enjoyed this series. Wished is the 4th book in the (Ghosted) Series and I had such a great time with this one. I was so happy that we get to welcome back Max from the last book "Fated". I'm happy that we got to see what happened to Max. Anna is a sweetheart of a character. She cleans Max's house and is a hopeless romantic and is in love with him. One day she ends up making a wish and let me tell you it's a wild ride!! This book had me laughing and kept me entertained. Max and Anna were both great characters that were likable and well written. The side characters were also great. I loved Anna's boss. She was a spit fire of a woman! This book was narrated by Amanda Ronconi and Will Watt. They did such a great job telling this story and making you feel like you were there with thee characters. I can't wait to see what Sarah comes up with next. I would definitely recommend this book and anything she writes!



Thank you NetGalley and Swift & Lewis Publishing LLC | Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA), Members' Titles for allowing me to read this ARC for my honest opinion.

sarah ready you killed this book! i absolutely adored this book! the writing, the characters, the plot, all of it! the cover is also a banger

This was a very pleasant read! I enjoyed the plot and the characters. And the little amount of spice. I loved Doreen so much. All in all it was a cute story about making wishes, love and having the possibility to make your own choices and magical realism.
There seem to be some small plot holes though unfortunately as well as the story being a bit flat time to time but i was still able to enjoy the book regardless of these!
Ill definitely check out also the other books in this serie!

Thank you Netgalley for providing this Arc in exchange of an honest review.

I have enjoyed the books in the “Ghosted” series very much. When I saw this one, I couldn’t wait to read it!
The story was very cute. The who wishing part was interesting. I also loved that one of the main characters was Max, who was in the last book of the series. We got to find out more about him. Anna was a great character and the banter between her and Max was on point. The story had a bit of a plot twist at the end, and I loved it!

After falling in love with max as a side character in the previous instalment in the series, I knew his book was going to be amazing, and Sarah Ready always delivers. Anna made a perfectly reasonable and irrational wish when confronted by magic jewellery that can't possibly do what it says on the tin, and I loved every second of what followed. There are always unintended consequences in this series, and I could feel every echo of the choices made here. My one gripe would be that I wish we had gotten more of Max's POV! I was dying to know what was going on in his head at a few points. But reading about Anna gaining the confidence and trying to live her best life with or without Max? You can't put a price on that kind of gold.

It was an alright book, I enjoyed it but didn't love it. I did love the concept and the premise of the book but there was just something missing...maybe it's because I'm not the biggest fan of insta-love and it also felt a little rushed at times.
Anna was a sweet character, I did like her. Max on the other hand, was rude. Did not enjoy him.
I just couldn't feel the connection between these two characters unfortunately.
But, I do know a lot of other people enjoyed these characters and their connection. It just wasn't for me.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me an ARC!

I was so excited to read another Sarah Ready book in this series and it did not disappoint! Can you imagine wishing for your wildest desires and that wish coming true?! Now imagine that wish was being married to your hot, rich boss? In this super fun book, that’s exactly what happens.

Anna has been cleaning Max’s chateau for the last 3 years and over this time, she found herself falling for him even though she’s never really had a conversation with him. Before wishing she was married to him, she’s noticed what books he reads, what snacks he eats, heck she even knows he likes mint toothpaste. But as the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for!!

Even though this story is whimsical and not realistic, it was a lot of fun and had such feel-good vibes! While it is a fun story, it had some pretty spicy 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ scenes, so keep that in mind before reading. Overall, I gave it 4.5 stars and can’t wait for the next one in the series!

Thank you NetGalley for an ARC of this book.

Thanks you NetGalley for sending me this ARC!
This was my first experience with this author and the start of the series for me. The book works as a standalone, but there are mentions of characters for the previous books, which got me intrigued to check out the rest of the series!
The romance between Anna and Max is super fresh, light, and really enjoyable to read. However, I do wish we could have explored Max a bit more-most of the story is from Anna's POV. It would have been great to get deeper into his character and understand what made him open up to love and passion, especially since he was so against it at the start.
I'd definitely recommend adding this book to your TBR, be it in book or audiobook format. I switched back and forth between the two formats and loved the narration.
I can't wait to read more from the series!
