This week I'm sharing...
Here's a synopsis...
In his 14th book, bestselling author Nicholas Sparks tells the unforgettable story of a man whose brushes with death lead him to the love of his life.
After U.S. Marine Logan Thibault finds a photograph of a smiling young woman buried in the dirt during his tour of duty in Iraq, he experiences a sudden streak of luck — winning poker games and even surviving deadly combat. Only his best friend, Victor, seems to have an explanation for his good fortune: the photograph — his lucky charm.
Back home in Colorado, Thibault can't seem to get the woman in the photograph out of his mind and he sets out on a journey across the country to find her. But Thibault is caught off guard by the strong attraction he feels for the woman he encounters in North Carolina - Elizabeth, a divorced mother — and he keeps the story of the photo, and his luck, a secret. As he and Elizabeth embark upon a passionate love affair, his secret soon threatens to tear them apart — destroying not only their love, but also their lives.
Filled with tender romance and terrific suspense, THE LUCKY ONE is an unforgettable story about the surprising paths our lives often take and the power of fate to guide us to true and everlasting love.

So you may have heard about this book because the movie version of it just came out, staring Zac Efron. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I am planning on going to see it this weekend now that I have finished the book. This book was awesome. Seriously. I can't even explain why I loved it so much, so you'll just have to trust me. Read it. You won't be disappointed. It tells one heck of a beautiful love story in a way that only Nicholas Sparks can do it.




I read this a few weeks ago and loved it too! I haven't watched the movie and most likely I will not until it is On Demand on my tv. ;0
ReplyDeletei read the book long ago when it came out and i thought the movie was great! spot on and great casting (even tho i was not so sure about the casting beforehand lol)
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness-everyone seems to be reading this at the moment. I don't think i need to read it now.(i probably would cry anyway!)
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I'd read a Nicholas Sparks book. Yes, they can be a little predictable, but I haven't read one that I haven't enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteUgh, I loved this one SO much! I can't wait to see the movie.
