Classic quick forbidden love story. A bit surface for me. Overall easy read and enjoyable.

Read along with my own personal copy of the book, narrator was sometimes off

Classic love story. When you think something is just about to happen, it's not. They grew up in a time when love and just being together meant more than anything else to each other than sex. The end made me cry. Sorry everyone.

As always Nicholas Sparks roocks.

Loved it can't wait to read all the other books!!

Amazing. Couldn't strip listening, sad it's over.

Absolutely loved this story!! I think one of the best I have listened to. You get very wrapped up in the characters. A must to listen to!!

I've read several of his books and felt that this one was pretty good, as usual. The characters were decently developed (although just a bit more would have been nice) but I was disappointed by the ending. I felt that it was too rushed compared to the rest of the book and I would have liked more time to really feel what was happening in the end. Overall, the book was good but definitely written with a movie in mind. Going to see the movie next, hopefully they don't make too many changes.

Loved this book. I felt like I knew the characters and fell in love with them. I read it specifically because I wanted to see the movie afterwards. Both were good, but the book is almost always better.

A country romantic book. Lots of twists and makes you feel like you are watching every scene

This book is amazing! It is so sad and happy all at the same time and i love it! Incredable .... a must read..

Did not enjoy this at all. Didn't even finish it.

Awesome book and narrator! Clearly my favorite Sparks book yet. He never disappoints. Already downloading another.

As a big Sparks fan, this one was a little disappointing. Mother and daughter were almost copies of those in The Notebook. Piling child abuse, alcoholism, loss of a child, car accidents, war and ghosts on top of two love stories nearly drowned them out. It was clearly written for Hollywood.

In true Nicholas Sparks style, this is a beautiful story. I cried at the end. I hope they don't butcher this book into a movie.
