This was a delightfully light-hearted story! At least, that is how I feel, having completed it about 5 minutes ago. There were periods of sadness and angst, but just enough to give the story a beautiful texture and exciting pacing.I loved the little girl in this story. Jaime/Jamaica is written beautifully, as is her dad. I enjoyed the fact that he was a part-time musician (love the guitar outside under the stars), and that he raised alpacas. Lacey was weak at first, but got stronger as the tale was told. I enjoy seeing growth in a character, and when an author can pull that transition off successfully, that scores points in my book, so to speak.It was a little weak in the area that most of the growth in each of the main characters happened when they were apart, and not when they were communicating together, but if you can overlook that, it is a delightful, quick read.
