By New York Times and USA Today Bestselling, RITA® Award winning author, Maggie Shayne“Maggie Shayne delivers romance with sweeping intensity and bewitching passion.” #1 NY Times bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz.*Originally titled Fairytale.A little boy’s haven… woods around their home. During one of his forest adventures, he crawled through tunnel and emerged into another world, a magical world, where a beautiful fairy child splashes in an enchanted pool.
It was just imagination…
Or so Adam tells himself as an adult. Until he finds a painting of that same crystal-strewn glade, that same glistening pool, the same mysterious girl splashing in its waters.
That painting becomes his most cherished possession.
Brigit thinks she knows who she is…
A fire razed the orphanage where she lived. But a homeless man saved her, and he saved the book that had been left on its doorstep with her.
She and Raze have been family to each other ever since.
Brigit can paint anything she sees precisely, and she uses her gift to get her and Raze off the streets when he gets too old and too sick to survive that way anymore.
The wrong people find out about her ability, though, and Raze is kidnapped. To get him back, Brigit must get close enough to Adam to copy his painting, switch them, and deliver the original to the kidnapper.
But it’s not just a painting…
It’s the key to Brigit’s secret past, her connection to the enchanted land Adam discovered as a boy, and a message from a twin sister she never knew she had pointing the way to her destiny.

Loved this book. The characters as usual with Maggie come to life and I loved the ups and downs of the book.
I liked the story but was confused on some of it and felt it could have been more. Either way a good read

A great book filled with twists and entertaining characters.
So good with trust and love.
Great book
Not a bad story, but once I was done, I was not inspired to read anymore in the series. It was a story I could easily walk away from.
Terrible. All the “heroine” did was cry. She cried on almost every page. Too much waterworks, no depth. Don’t waste your time.
Generic and predictable. Easy time killer.
Good book could not put it down
I loved this book , shows the trust we need to give one nother…
It was everything I look for in a book!!! The author hooked me IMMEDIATELY and from then on it was riveting, couldn’t wait to see what happened next and next and I was so tense and then relieved–I’ll just call it an emotional roller coaster that was a BLAST!!!!
Young readers would enjoy this book.
I didn’t like the author’s writing style, too flowery without sticking to the point. Not to mention the abundance of tragic backstory which meant none of the backstories were actually explored but only skimmed over. Disappointing because an art forger who is an actual fairy sounds like a good hook.
I did not like the book
Overall good characters and good story but a few places that dragged and struggled. An enjoyable read.
Love the books by Maggie Shayne!
Loved it
The paranormal adds a little something extra.
Not great–ok
