3 Wishes

3 Wishes is a very quick read by author Peggy Jaeger. It is love story between Chloe San Valentino, a chocolatier, and Matt D'Amore, an emergency room doctor. They meet for the first time in Chloe's candy store, where Matt is buying chocolates and caramels for the women in his family. Both Chloe and Matt have one green eye and one blue eye, and it is at that moment when they both look into each other's eyes, that they fall in love.

Chloe and her Italian family are loud, somewhat boisterous and loving. They stick together like glue through think and thin, which makes for some very funny moments. Overall, this is a cute read with a few twists and turns that keep it interesting.

Short and sweet. Literally.

3 Wishes By Peggy Jaeger I received this book via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
I found 3 wishes to be a quick, light-hearted read that kept me engaged, smiling, and feeling part of a larger family. I recommend reading this book, it will brighten your day.
Author Peggy Jaeger provides a well written story of Matt and Chloe. When Chloe was 8 she started a tradition of making 3 wishes for her birthday. Every year since her 15th the wishes have been made and written down but they were always the same. Days before her 30th birthday she thinks her wishes have finally come true. But is fate playing a cruel joke or did all of those wishes possess real magic? Chloe the owner of a candy shop and the story takes place around Valentine’s Day which is also her birthday. Matt comes in to purchase a gift and Chloe is instantly attracted to him but a casual comment is misunderstood. Life happens and Matt and Chloe’s lives intersect again. Will Chloe get her shot at true love?

Short and sweet. A wonderful, lighthearted afternoon read.

Chloe runs her own candy shop and Valentine’s Day is her busiest time of the year. Chloe is also soon to be turning thirty, her birthday falls on Valentine’s Day so she’s used to working right through and not taking time for herself. Her huge Italian family is always asking when she’ll settle down and get married.

When a handsome man walks into her store right before the holiday she’s immediately taken by him because he shares a rather odd trait with Chloe, they both have each eye a different color. Thinking he’s buying candies for a wife or girlfriend Chloe shrugs off the encounter until the two run into each other again.

This installment of the Candy Hearts Romance series should come with a warning label that it just may wreck any New Year’s dieting resolutions you may have made. My mouth was just watering not only when Chloe is describing the things she sold in her store but then with the big Italian family of course they had tons of mouth watering food in their get together!

If the food isn’t reason enough to fall in love with this great little story you also have a cute budding romance between the characters. Chloe had wished for her perfect man as a child and here he walks right into her life. Great story and would definitely recommend this one.

Fun Book!
This is a great book; this book is part of the A Candy Hearts Romance series by Peggy Jaeger. Chloe San Valentino is a chocolatier and Valentines Days is her favorite day of the year and also her birthday. Chloe has 3 wishes for her birthday and so far they haven’t come true. When a handsome man walks into her candy shop who happens to have one blue eye and one green eye, she starts to think her wishes may come true after all. If you are looking for a great romance, then you need to read this book. I am looking forward to reading the next book by this author.
A Review copy was provided to me in exchange for a fair and honest review. The free book held no determination on my personal review.

So I had to double check the cover of this one when I noticed the two different colored eyes. When I read the blurb, I realized that this was deliberate, as it's a main part of the character and is on her "wish" list for the perfect man. The list and how it is described in the first chapter brought to mind the scene from Practical Magic, where young Sally is casting her true love spell. Which seems a bit odd since Chloe and her big Italian family are actually devout Catholics, but it worked with the wishes theme.

Chloe was an interesting character, with her February 14th birthday, chocolate shop and crazy big family. As with any big boisterous family, there is plenty of drama and this story was no different. This story basically tells the meeting and initial relationship of Chloe and Matteo, so it is a clean romance. A lovely epilogue nicely wraps up everything and gives us an update on what happened in the interim. I liked the way Chloe handled things during their courtship. She stood up for herself and stayed true to herself. I enjoyed this book and gave it 3 stars.

Thanks to Netgalley and Wild Rose Press for the opportunity to read and review the book.

Just as sweet as the chocolates that Chloe makes, I love this little story of love at first sight. You are there for the meet-cute and then the bumpy road as they move to a happy ending. I was rooting for Chloe and her fantasy man every step of the way. The misunderstanding between them could have been easily resolved with just a simple question or two but it would have meant that we didn’t get the fun of the story – one that had me smiling from start to finish.

cute story but I wish it had been longer.

I adored this short novella. It was fun, entertaining and hugely gripping! I simply couldn't put it down until I had finished. I love the fantasy element to it and the cover is hugely fun. I'm now looking out for them on Amazon to pop onto my Kindle for a short fun read.
