Beautiful story. Characters were written well and plot was entertaining! This was my first book by this author and I’m definitely excited to read more! 4 stars recommendation!

Tillie Cole knows how to write a beautiful story and this one did not disappoint!!!! Captivating from the start till finish!!! The character development and plot execution was done beautifully!!!!

This book was so beautifully written, I fell in love with Cromwell from the first page, Bonnie and Easton will forever be some of my favorite characters.. this book made me feel things I didn’t expect to feel, I cried the last half of this book!
Such a beautiful story, of love, of forgiveness of second chances, and such a reminder that life is way too short!

This was so heartbreakingly beautiful. Loved every page even when it had me in tears. Tillie Cole knows how to make you cry, but fall so in love with the characters she writes. Bonnie and Cromwell were everything. Their raw, real emotions captivates you into the story. Cromwells strength through so many tragic situations, and the way he perseveres with his gift is truly incredible. Bonnie is just absolute warmth in a character. Her resilience shines through in each chapter, and the way she touches Cromwell and inspires him is exactly what he needed to grow. Absolutely amazing.

6 Star read. Hands Down... WOW. This book left me reeling. A Wish for Us is devastatingly beautiful, a journey that’s gut-wrenching and unforgettable. It’s a story of broken hearts and the healing power of love and music—a true masterpiece for anyone who believes in redemption and second chances. Cromwell and Bonnie’s journey ripped my heart out, pieced it back together, then shattered it all over again.

Cromwell Dean is this mysterious, brooding EDM prodigy who seems as unreachable as he is talented. But Bonnie Farraday—a girl who lives and breathes music—is the first person to see past his walls, to see the aching colors he hides. Their connection is intense, almost like fate pulling them together even when Cromwell’s darkness threatens to swallow them both. Watching Bonnie become his light is both beautiful and painful, especially as they tackle life’s hardest obstacles: mental illness, addiction, and healing.

This book isn’t just about romance; it’s about raw emotion and the inner battles that music can both mask and soothe. The enemies-to-lovers angle is stunning here, but it’s the way Tillie Cole handles mental illness and addiction that makes it so gut-punching. The twists kept me up, and I couldn’t put this down even when I knew my heart was about to get broken again.

A Wish for Us is an emotional rollercoaster, but one I’d take again in a heartbeat. It’s absolutely worth the tears. Tillie Cole has woven a symphony of love, pain, and hope that’s a must-read for everyone. Just prepare for your heart to feel every single note.

Thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks/Bloom Books for the opportunity to receive the ARC.

I flew through this book, binge read this in less than a day. “A Thousand Boy Kisses” left me stranded on outlier island but I like to read more than one book by an author to form an opinion. This one was such a pleasant surprise to me.
I liked the Themen of this. Not the music, but the “Light in the darkness” part. That there is this one person, who truly sees you. I enjoyed this a lot. It was heartbreakingly beautiful. So amidst the darkness, there is hope, because foremost, this is a story of hope.

This is my 3rd book by tillie and I loved it, it's such a heartbreaking but healing book, it's worth the read

A gorgeous deluxe edition for a beautiful book! What a gift this would make for yourself and someone you care about. A collector's item for certain. The story is highly entertaining, and I have reread it and felt so many emotions, just like the first time through. Thanks to NetGalley for the copy for this review.
