Publisher's summary
A powerful, poignant novel of love, redemption, and family secrets from the incomparable #1 New York Times bestselling author Fern Michaels....
On his thirty-fifth birthday, Jake St. Cloud inherits a fortune - and learns the whereabouts of his mysterious half-brother. On her deathbed, Selma St. Cloud revealed that Jake had a sibling, a product of his father's affair. At last, Jake is in a position to track down Alex Rosario and make amends for their father's past neglect.
When their initial meeting goes badly, a distraught Jake crashes his car and is sentenced to community work - with Alex as his parole officer. Jake must spend a year helping Angelica Dancer and her daughter, Fancy, at the Dancer Foundation for neglected children. Fancy, scarred by the accident that ended her ballet career, is even less happy with the arrangement than Jake. Yet as they're all thrown together, unexpected connections help Jake realize that his mother's greatest gift to him lies not in his inheritance, but in the future, and the family, he's slowly piecing together....

At 29, Alison Marshall is ready to find a place to call home. With no family and no ties, she’s drifted from one small Florida town to another since high school, working odd jobs, saving hard, and building a nest egg. Once she finds the right place to settle down, she’ll know. And when she reaches beautiful Palmetto Island, she thinks she may have found it. The small, close-knit island community seems to have everything Alison needs. On a hunch, she contacts the island’s only realtor, and learns that an old beach house is on the market.

A feel good book to lift your mood
I read or listen to romance novels in secret. It is a habit akin to polishing a carton of Ben and Jerry's ice cream without gaining weight.
I love "Fancy Dancer" for its many characters with flaws and strengths. A precocious child, dogs and truly generous women complete the cast.
There are many twists and turns: deceptions, lies, betrayal and tragedies are revealed. Yet the main protagonists learn to cope, overcome their pains, change their behavior and find happiness.
I found remarkable that the author minimizes the cliches, avoids nauseating descriptions of handsome men, boring soft semi-pornographic amorous moments. Even the vilains have regrets. This story progresses naturally and leaves you feeling good without regrets. A delicious treat for a rainy day.

Sweet story, but much of it not believable.
Too many things were entirely not plausible. Left me shaking my head on/off throughout.
