The Twenty-First Wish by Debbie Macomber
Anne Marie Roche and her adopted daughter, ten-year-old Ellen, have each written a list of twenty wishes--on which they included learning to knit. But Ellen has quietly added a twenty-first wish: that her mom will fall in love with Tim, Ellen's birth father, who's recently entered their lives....
Coming Unraveled by Susan Mallery
When Robyn Mulligan's dreams of becoming a Broadway star give way to longing for her childhood home, she returns to Texas, running her grandmother's knitting store. But the handsome, hot-tempered T. J. Passman isn't making it easy on her. If he can learn to trust Robyn, and overcome his tragic past, they just might discover a passion like no other.
Return to Summer Island by Christina Skye
After a devastating car accident, Caro McNeal is welcomed by a community of knitters on Oregon's sleepy Summer Island. She also finds meaning and purpose in the letters she exchanges with a marine serving in Afghanistan. But when life takes another unexpected turn, will Caro pick up the threads of hope, opening her heart to wherever it takes her?

In this uplifting anthology, Macomber (Between Friends), Mallery (Someone Like You), and Skye (Bound by Dreams) spin three yarns related to a passion for knitting and accompanied by appropriate knitting patterns. In "The Twenty-First Wish," 10-year-old knitter Ellen yearns for her birth father to marry her adoptive mother. For Robyn in "Coming Unraveled," knitting had been a way of life until she pursued her dream of starring on Broadway. After the dream fades, Robyn's return to her grandma's home and knitting store puts her on a new path toward the handsome and enigmatic T.J. In "Return to Summer Island," a car accident badly damages Caro's hand and arm. As she recovers, she finds solace in knitting and unexpected romance with a charismatic Marine about to deploy to Afghanistan. These simple and pleasant romances will warm readers' hearts. -

Three best-selling authors knit together a richly emotional, wonderfully nourishing collection of contemporary romances. In the charming Twenty-First Wish, Macomber brings back Anne Marie Roche, the heroine of Twenty Wishes (2008), for one more chance at love with the biological father of her adopted daughter. Susan Mallery strikes exactly the right balance between sweet and sexy in Coming Unraveled, in which everyone in Georgetown is delighted when Robyn Mulligan returns home to Texas to help her beloved grandmother run her knitting shop. Well, everyone except cranky T. J. Passman, whose injuries have forced him to take up knitting as therapy. In Christina Skyes elegantly written, exceptionally poignant Return to Summer Island, Caro McNeal only has one day with First Lieutenant Gage Grayson before he returns to duty in Afghanistan, but that one day is enough to convince her to wait as long as it takes for Gage to come back home. Each splendidly entertaining romance comes with its own knitting project, making the book a perfect crossover read for the nonfiction yarn-craft crowd.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2011, American Library Association.)
