This is a well written book with strong characters and an interesting story line. The author does a great job keeping me glued to the pages with this thrilling story line. Her scenes were described in vivid detail and the story flows fluidly with her descriptive writing. She does a fantastic job showing life in quarantine , the isolation and the anxiety of not knowing what’s happening on the outside. I loved this book and would highly recommend reading.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
So, I liked this story. The plot was very interesting and I absolutely loved the characters. Jake and Catherine were super likeable and I would have liked to see more of their spark flourish. Catherine’s 8 year old son, Mitchell was so cute and resilient. The addition of Lucky was perfect. It melted my heart.
It was a bit disappointing that there wasn’t more action when they left the house after six months of quarantine. I was on the edge of my seat expecting some major action and then meh!
Having said that, I did enjoy reading Wish Us Luck and perhaps that ending means there’s more to come. I’m game.

Captain Jake Deakon,Catherine Perse and her son, Mitchell’s story of a quarantined town and how they get left there. Once I started this book I was not putting it down. The way it ended makes me wonder if there might be another book to come. this is a short story but it seems like a bigger book with all that goes on in it.

Life can change in a blink of an eye as Michell and his mother found out. One day life is normal and then the next, they were notified by a soldier that they were under quarantine. This is a thriller, a page turner. I opened the book and did not put it down until I finished it. Doubts and determination, questions of what is happening in the rest of the world. Isolation. Wow.

Full of detail and frighteningly realistic. This believable take on a catastrophic event, is thoroughly entertaining. A slow moving romance makes more sense than the ‘three day love affair’ a lot of romance books describe. The depth of realism is possibly some of the best writing in this genre I’ve read in a long time.
An easy to read, page turning adventure that makes you wonder, ‘what would I do?’.

A story on survival that brings Jake, Catherine and Mitch close together. Like how they rallied together to get through this tragedy.
I really, really enjoyed this story. Loved the characters a lot. When she and her son get quarantined together with Jake they get to know each other pretty good.
This was an impressive story and a bit different. In a way it was scary with love woven into it and so well written. I like the diary entries and the way she wrote it was perfect. It was also a quick read about a woman and her son in quarantined until Jack came and then they all need to survive. This is a thought provoking book that I would recommend. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.
An intriguing different kind of scary romance story, it is suspenseful. Amazing strong characters. It is written well. I liked reading the book and a pleasure to review it.
She tucked her son up in bed and it was the last normal.thing that would happen. Flashing lights and a knock on the door changed everything. They were quarantined and then a soldier comes along. What has happened? Will it get better? Read to find out what is going on

I liked Jake and Mitch’s relationship.
This was an exemplary book. It was a clean book and oh, so good. I do not know when I have read such an impressive story. Well written does not do this book justice. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book in exchange for a free copy.
I am new to Jennifer Wedmore and this book was a good one to start with. A love story wrapped in a little scary suspenseful type book!
I love how it gets creepy but is filled with a huge what if scenario! Is the love found during this type of situation real or lasting?
Catherine and Jakes story is definitely a unique and great read!

Wish Us Luck is the perfect book for a Halloween read. This is a scary what if book. I was sucked in and as frightened as the characters. A well written tale that will keep you flipping pages.
