"Miracles abound in this enchanting tale of friendship, loyalty, luck and the beauty of burnt toast. Bobbie Pyron's Paradise Beach comes to life with such humor and tenderness that readers will feel homesick the moment they close the covers of "Lucky Strike."

"If you're holding Lucky Strike, consider yourself lucky. Open it and read immediately. If you aren't holding it, run now and do so. Open it and read immediately. You will consider yourself lucky. Trust me." -- Barbara O'Connor, author of "How To Steal A Dog"
