Synopsis

The successful but lonely daughter of a powerful New York theater icon falls for her imaginary friend in this touching love story.
Jane Margaux is a lonely little girl. Her mother, a powerful Broadway producer, makes time for her only once a week, for their Sunday trip to admire jewelry at Tiffany's. Jane has only one friend: a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael. He's perfect. But only she can see him.
Michael can't stay forever, though. On Jane's ninth birthday he leaves, promising her that she'll soon forget him. Years later, in her thirties, Jane is just as alone as she was as a child. And despite her own success as a playwright, she is even more trapped by her overbearing mother. Then she meets someone-a handsome, comforting, funny man. He's perfect. His name is Michael . . .

From AudioFile:

When she's a child, lonely Jane knows she'd be lost without her friend, a man named Michael, whom no one else can see. So she's devastated when he leaves on her ninth birthday, promising her she'll forget him. But she doesn't, ever. When Jane is in her thirtieslonely as everthey meet again. Ellen Archer gives a delicate shading to this story of unexpected love. She transitions from the childhood Jane to the adult Jane with a subtle change in tone while keeping Jane's essential speech patterns. Archer's portrayal of Jane's powerful mother is just as convincing as those of Jane and Michael. Throughout the book, Archer resists the story's pull toward sentimentality and keeps the performance both thoughtful and entertaining. R.L.L. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
