Synopsis

There are a few things Jeremy Marsh was sure he'd never do: he'd never leave New York City; never give his heart away again after barely surviving one failed marriage; and, most of all, never become a parent. Now, Jeremy is living in the tiny town of Boone Creek, North Carolina, married to Lexie Darnell, the love of his life, and anticipating the birth of their daughter. But just as his life seems to be settling into a blissful pattern, an unsettling and mysterious message re-opens old wounds and sets off a chain of events that will forever change the course of this young couple's marriage.

Dramatic, heartbreaking and surprising, this is a story about the love between a man and a woman and between a parent and a child. More than that, it is a story that beautifully portrays how the same emotion that can break your heart is also the one that will ultimately heal it.

While the novel picks up the tale of Lexie Darnell and Jeremy Marsh that started in True Believer and will delight fans of that novel, it stands on its own as one of Nicholas Sparks's most deeply moving love stories.

I love Nicholas Sparks but I already know what is going to happen in every story he writes! Everyone will die! It just gets so old! I didn't even read his newest one because I know the ending already. Can't he write at least two stories where someone can stay together! No more Sparks for me!

I didn't find this story to be particularly interesting. Overall, the pace was slow. I skipped through several sections that felt like it served no purpose other than dragging out the story. I never felt the emotion in this story that I have experienced by other works by this author.
