Romance, Magical Realism

Always be careful what you wish for.

Maya Bloom has a secret.
For as long as she can remember, all her wishes have come true. One quick plea to the universe, and whatever she wants is hers. The they always backfire.
Which is why Maya is done wishing. Well, until her wedding day when she’s in desperate need of the truth.
And when it feels like her whole life is imploding, she makes the split-second decision to run to Vermont and be with her best friend, Ellie.

Liam Harley has a problem.
He’s been living his best single dad life in small town Vermont, but he can’t seem to forget the past. Not his last job as a Michelin star chef, not his night owl lifestyle, and especially not that night two years ago when he met Maya Bloom.
When Maya shows up in his new haven of Sugar Valley, he wonders if he’ll get a second chance with the woman who’s been haunting his dreams.
Unfortunately for him, she has no idea who he is.

One More Wish is a small-town romance about the power of found families, the magic of finding your soulmate, and believing in the impossible.

As we come across books that are described as having Jewish main characters, we add them to this database. The creators of the Jewish Genre Reading Challenge have not read all (or even most) of the books in this database. We have gathered information from many sources and not all may be accurate. Inclusion of a book in our database does not imply endorsement or approval. There is always the possibility that antisemitism may be present in a book, either written into a character's experience or through malicious or ignorant caricature or stereotypical portrayal of Jewish characters and culture. Please take care of yourselves as you read.

Please let us know if you encounter a book in this database that does not have a Jewish main character, if you have corrections or additions for a book's genre categories, or if you have any other concerns about the inclusion of a particular book in this database.
