Be Careful What You Wish For begins with Harry Clifton and his wife Emma anxiously awaiting news about their son Sebastian, who has been in a serious car accident. The outcome is uncertain: is Sebastian alive, or has his best friend Bruno died? When Ross Buchanan resigns as chairman of Barrington Shipping, Emma aims to take his place. However, Don Pedro Martinez plans to install Major Alex Fisher, a puppet intent on undermining the Barrington family as they prepare to launch their new luxury liner, the MV Buckingham. Meanwhile, their adopted daughter Jessica wins a scholarship to the Slade Academy of Art and falls in love with Clive Bingham, who proposes marriage. The families celebrate until Priscilla Bingham, Jessica's future mother-in-law, receives a visit from Lady Virginia Fenwick, whose meddling threatens the engagement. Unexpectedly, Cedric Hardcastle, a newcomer from Yorkshire, joins the Barrington board, creating upheaval. His first major decision involves supporting either Emma Clifton or Major Alex Fisher for the chairmanship, setting off a chain of events that will alter the lives of the Clifton and Barrington families. This gripping narrative unfolds as the families navigate the complexities of love, ambition, and betrayal in the 1960s.
