PLEASE READ THE MCKENNA'S HAVEN SERIES IN ORDER!!!!  And don't read the description or reviews for this book until you've finished reading McKenna's Prayer, -the first book. The premise of this book itself is a spoiler. That being said, I SO loved Jace's Healing!!! I really like Jace, despite his stupidity and overall dumb man-ness. He blew it early on, and ended up paying the price for his repeatedly poor choices. But gosh, it's hard to watch him suffer through the consequences he brought upon himself. Personally, I think McKenna's Prayer and Jace's Healing should be required reading for adolescent-aged boys as a what-not-to-do lesson for young men. Lisa Crane really captured that feeling of broken-heartedness as we walked in Jace's shoes for a few miles. She also captured the light at the end of the tunnel; although it took a lot of pain and time to finally get there. I fell in love with Daisy, a fun, funny, klutz you couldn't help but want to hang out with. I saw many of my friends in the varying aspects of her. The consequences of Jace's past come back to haunt her as well, and it was riveting to watch the story unfold. Unfortunately, I can also claim to have seen some of Denise's personality traits in people as well. Denise is not only unlikable, but eerily sick and twisted. She is the embodiment of people who don't have the proper tools to deal with disappointment, and the type of action she chooses to take becomes more and more the norm in a society where it's all about me. Men take note; women really aren't be used, -even when they give you permission.
