Faye O'Neill has learned the hard way that marrying Prince Charming only happens in fairy tales, and now she's got her feet firmly planted on the ground. A fresh start in London has Faye creating a safe, secure life for herself and her two children, even if it's a life with no surprises...until she meets Jack Graham that is. Jack charms Faye's kids and seems determined to woo-and win-the ravishing yet reluctant single mom. Jack recognizes in Faye a heart that yearns for adventure and a chance to trust once more in fairy tales. He believes in a world where anything is possible, and where broken hearts can be healed with just one kiss. But can his tenderness restore Faye's faith in herself, and carry her away to a place where love is the sweetest magic of all?

Highly recommended! I loved Mary Alice Kruesi's Second Star to the Right. Her tale is exquisitely endearing, making wonderful use of the Peter Pan story (I, too had a crush on Peter as I was growing up) and interweaving it with the lives of Jack Graham, the hero, Faye O'Neill, the heroine and her children, and of course, Wendy. The book makes you want to believe in the magic of happy endings, and has you listening for bells and watching for shooting stars. The last chapter was a bit blurred, as I had to read it through tears. Congratulations, Mary Alice: another tour de force!

The premise - Peter Pan really lives, the plot and the theme have promise. What could be better than a modern, whimsical, fairy tale? However the author fails to totally deliver with real characters and plot. Not bad - but not a keepr.

Kruesi has written an incredible story about love, hope, faith and dreams that come true. I've never read Peter Pan, but I know enough about the story to appreciate the symbolism and the magic of that wonderful tale that Kruesi weaves so artfully into this book. SECOND STAR TO THE RIGHT did what every great book should do--it made me laugh and cry. It's a real treasure. A true keeper! I expect to see much more from this extremely talented author.
