Spotlight: The Wish Maker by Melissa McClone
/At Christmastime, sometimes even impossible wishes come true…
One word changed Wes Lockhart’s life forever. Cancer. Fighting for his life completely flipped his priorities, making him realize he wanted—no, needed—to use his billions to help others find the kind of second chance he’d been given. The first person he intended to help? The beautiful, caring, and dedicated oncologist who got him through his treatments and ushered him into remission. And what better time than the holidays to become her not-so-secret Santa?
Dr. Paige Regis has spent her entire career helping others, often at the expense of her personal life. She’d love to start a family of her own—but with her current patients and her plans to open a brand-new cancer center, it seems like an impossible dream. It’s not until she reconnects with the charming Wes that she realizes he might just be the man to make all her Christmas wishes come true.
Can Wes and Paige open their hearts to the magic of the season—and each other—to get a shot at their very own Christmas miracle? Or will past hurts and doubts end their happily ever after before it even begins?
Excerpt
Wes sat across from her at a small round table tucked in a back corner. He sipped his Americano.
“I would have taken you for the caramel macchiato type.” He eyed her mug, which was topped with whipped cream, chocolate sprinkles, and a candy cane. “Not peppermint hot chocolate.”
“It’s a Christmas drink. Not as traditional as eggnog, but a close second.”
She took a sip. When she lowered her mug from her mouth, a dollop of whipped cream stuck to her upper lip.
Wes shouldn’t be staring or wishing he could help her with it. He tried to look away, but he couldn’t. Fighting the urge to wipe it off, he handed her a napkin. “You have whipped cream on your mouth.”
“That always happens with these drinks.” She patted her face with the napkin. “But it’s worth it.”
Glad she thought so. Wes never imagined himself envying a napkin.
