This is a novel to buy Mum for Mother's Day! It's filled with the instant gratification of a Mills and Boon combined with the sigh-worthy love story of 'The Notebook'. If you made me do a blind read on this one, I would never believe it was written by a man....much less a thriller author!

Now, I can't tell you too much without giving it away so I'll let the novel's byline do the talking: What if you're imaginary friend was your one true love? Think about it. What a cool concept! I must admit that part of the novel's charm is trying to figure out exactly who or what Michael is and how on Earth he and Jane are going to get a happy ending.

It is sorrow and joy, childhood and adulthood, beginnings and endings, all in one compact, delightful little novel. Patterson has created another great little read that will leave you feeling, well, happy. If you've read 'The Notebook' or 'Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas', you'll know that when I say happy ending, I'm not guaranteeing it won't be sad.

Read this novel if: You've loved 'The Notebook' or any of Nicholas Sparks's novels. The similarities between these two are significant. If you DO read this book and enjoy it, MAKE SURE you read 'Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas', also by James Patterson. That book is easily worth 5 stars.
Don't read this novel if: Emotions make you feel uncomfortable! Lol, seriously, if you don't cry at movies or commercials, you may not enjoy this one. Definitely a book for the saps!
