Be Careful What You Wish For begins with Harry Clifton and his wife Emma anxiously awaiting news about their son Sebastian after a tragic car accident. The uncertainty looms over whether Sebastian or his best friend has died. Following Ross Buchanan's forced resignation from the Barrington Shipping Company, Emma aims to take his place, but Don Pedro Martinez plans to install his puppet, Alex Fisher, to undermine the family firm as they prepare to launch a new luxury liner. Meanwhile, their daughter Jessica wins a scholarship to the Slade Academy of Art and falls in love with Clive Bingham, who proposes marriage. The families are thrilled until Jessica's future mother-in-law receives a visit from a friend who sows discord regarding the wedding. Additionally, Cedric Hardcastle, a newcomer from Yorkshire, joins the Barrington board, bringing upheaval that will impact both the Clifton and Barrington families. Hardcastle's first move is to decide whether to support Emma or Alex for the chairmanship, leading to unexpected twists that heighten the tension. This narrative showcases the author’s storytelling prowess as the families navigate love, revenge, ambition, and betrayal while stepping into the 1960s.
