Opis

As long as she can remember, Jazz has always been her daddy's little princess. As she grows up on a beautiful Caribbean island, she is happy in his company and he is happy in hers. But when he becomes the victim of a deadly accident, Jazz and her mother drift apart emotionally, eventually sending Jazz disappearing into the night without a trace. As she attempts to forge a new life for herself, Jazz struggles against loneliness and feelings of abandonment; still, with a combination of good luck, instinct, and talent, she manages to survive-until she is betrayed by a trusted companion. Ten years later, in a fit of anger and despair, she returns home to those she deserted and discovers that Jason, her childhood sweetheart, is about to be married. Jazz wants him back-not only because she loves him, but because he can provide her with something she has always wanted: a big family. Jazz is prepared to give up everything-including the comfortable life she has created for herself-for love, but she soon discovers that her journey to happiness is more complicated than she ever imagined.
