What a heart-warming story of love that endures all. It is so poetic and the type of love every woman dreams of. It is tender as this couples relationship matures with time and they share their life with children and each other. The passion is stilled by the deeper love and devotion that meshes these characters. The sadness is only comes as the reader witnesses the ravages of time, age and illness as it takes it tolls on the female character, but we are reminded love still lives in this couples heart as they face one challenge after another in order to remain together. It makes me cry thinking of this story. It is as beautiful as it poignant. Nicholas Sparks has a real gift for writing a story so real and believable you might know someone just like Noah and Allie. I fear the movie doesn't do the story justice. It is a must read for those who believe love still conquers all.
