Book Description by Author Website
Compelling stand-alone novel with a southern, beach setting sure to appeal to fiction readers.In The Wishing Tree, Ivy Marshall, a savvy, determined woman, finds out her husband has cheated on her on the same day her sister’s perfect boyfriend proposes on national television.

However, her husband has started tweeting his apology to her and doesn’t want to give up on their marriage. As she helps prepare the wishing tree for her sister’s wedding, she must examine her own wishes for the future and decide what love should be.
My View
This seemingly real like situation book was incredible. When you read it, be prepared to be moved!! This book wasn't just about how Ivy Marshall coped with her husband Elliott's extramarital affair. This book was about forgiveness. It was about family as well as how Ivy found herself and how she needed others to forgive her. I was deeply touched with this book and found a little of myself in Ivy Marshall. Marybeth Whalen is an exceptional writer and I would recommend her books to anyone.
