Too Lovely to Miss!

Gina has lost a mom, and a dad. Mom lives with her new husband, and though Gina lives with her dad, he's not really there either. Jamie's mother is gone as well, and his Father seems to have abondoned them to the elements. Both begin to search for their lost fathers, and though both live in drastically different worlds, find those worlds colliding in a most fantastic tale. A tale that includes a gold ring, a magic tree, and a shape-changing bear. As beautiful as branches twining together, this is a story wonderfully told.
