Product Description

As a little girl, Jane has no one. Her mother Vivienne Margaux, the powerful head of a major New York theater company has no time for her. But she does have one friend--Michael--and no one can see him but her. But Michael can't stay with Jane forever, and on her eighth birthday, her imaginary friend must leave her.

When Jane is in her thirties, working for her mother's company, she is just as alone as she was as a child. Her boyfriend hardly knows she's there and is more interested in what Vivienne can do for his career. Her mother practically treats her as a slave in the office, despite the great success of Jane's first play, "Thank Heaven." Then she finds Michael--handsome, and just the same as she remembers him, only now he's not imaginary. For once in her life, Jane is happy--and has someone who loves her back. But not even Michael knows the reason behind why they've really been reunited.

Customer Reviews

Bring your inner child - and you will delight in this book
I am no light weight when it comes to intellectual activities and enjoyments. But I learned long ago that, just as you must stretch muscles you want to work well - once in a while you must completely open yourself to see the world as a child.

This takes some courage. We find a lot of security in our adult logic and structures. But delight and joy are not measured in the ways of adulthood. They are experiences not of the cognitive self but of the core self. This book speaks to a need our world has to relearn the values of compassion, the importance of a lack of pretension, and the essential need to learn to let go of the requirement to have all the answers (or find someone who does).

Loving another person does not always make sense. And that is OK. Stories do not always have all the loose ends tied up. And that is OK.
Letting go of perfection and reality now and then are good for you. Many people can only let go with the use of alcohol or drugs. But this book is a far better way to do it. If you let the story carry you along, you will end up as I did - filled with joy.

awful
I bought this book because I love James Patterson. I was so disappointed in this book, it was terrible. I couldn't get past the fourth chapter and Patterson's chapters are not big. It was stupid and I would not recommend it to anyone. If you want to read it, get it from the library, don't waste your money buying it.

Fantastic book!
I love this book! I think this is probably James Patterson's best book to date. I love the way he draws you in to the characters and makes you feel like a part of his book. Also the way he takes an abstract subject and makes you believe. What a fantastic author!
