Book Description:
Divorcée Theresa Osborne, newspaper columnist and mother of a twelve-year-old son, picks up a bottle on the beach during a seaside vacation. Inside is a letter from a man called Garrett.
My dearest Catherine, I miss you my darling, as I always do, but today is particularly hard because the ocean has been singing to me, and the song is that of our life together...
For Garrett, his message is the only way he knows to express his undying love for a woman he has lost. For Theresa, wary of romance since her husband shattered her trust, the message raises questions that intrigue her. Who are Garrett and Catherine? What is their story? Challenged by the mystery and unaccountably drawn to find him, Theresa embarks on a search that takes her to a sunlit coastal town and an unexpected confrontation.
Brought together by chance, or something more powerful, Theresa and Garrett are people whose lives are about to touch for a purpose, in a tale that resonates with our deepest hopes for finding that special someone and everlasting love.

this book for me started out sort of slow, however after about 25 pages, I couldn't put it down...it is probably one of the best books I have ever read and I have told all of my friends about it.

This is one of my all time favorites of his. So very good and emotional. A must read.
So yeah, I knew there was a movie and I have never seen it. So, I read the book. It had me in tears at the very end. Had not expected that. Should have read a review or 2.
I'm realizing this kind of story, the chick lit so to speak, is wearing thin on me. If you like chick lit, you will LOVE this book. It's too predictable otherwise. A hint about what's coming in the next 10 pages... over and over again. I wonder how many are actually surprised by all of that?
Anyhow.... there, I did it!
Louisa R. (My favorite Sparks book and I've read several. Story actually based on his father after his mother was killed in a horseback riding accident. Great read!
Jennifer L. (Absolutely wonderful novel! Beautiful story about love and loss. Real tear jerker, as are all the other Nicholas Sparks books I've read, but worth it all the way!
What a sad, beautiful story. Kind of a "necessary" ending, but still, so heartbreaking...
I read this book probably 5 or 6 years ago and remember really liking it. It's a very nice romance story.
Nicholas Sparks novels always pull on my heart strings.... Another great story about love...
