I received a copy of this book from the author for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review, and all conclusions are my own responsibility.  What if every wish you have (even the petty ones in your head that go unspoken) is fulfilled: with the wanted object under your bed in the morning?Elizabeth is in the middle of her 18th birthday party when she meets her "wish giver", although she is unaware of his importance in her life.  Determined to become a New York Times bestselling author, she is obsessed with writing, her education and leaving Seattle for "somewhere else". Draven `courts' Elizabeth, as she slowly discovers he can hear her through a telepathic connection that they have. But, it is two years after revealing himself to her that he explains what he is, and why he is connected to her.A fun ride from Seattle to South Dakota with treks to Paris and Bourgogne, we follow Elizabeth through adventures that reinforce her connection to Draven, and the love that has survived over a half-century of changes, defeating death, fate and searching for their intertwined destiny.  Beautifully written with characters that reinforce their humanity, underlying the theme of soul mates, and the journeys that one takes to find, hold, and capture that love for eternity.  This was a sweet read with a happily ever after, while still maintaining the option for furthering the story.
