    <![CDATA[<strong>From #1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author Nicholas Sparks comes a tender story of hope and joy, of sacrifice and forgiveness--a moving reminder that love is possible at any age, at any time, and often comes when we least expect it.</strong><br/>Reeling with heartache after her husband abandons her for a younger woman, Adrienne Willis flees to the small coastal town of Rodanthe, North Carolina, to tend a friend's inn. Here she hopes to find the tranquillity she so desperately needs to rethink her life. But almost as soon as she gets there, a major storm is forecast and a guest named Dr. Paul Flanner arrives. At fifty-four, Paul has just sold his medical practice and is trying to escape his own shattered past. Now, with a fierce nor'easter closing in, two wounded people will turn to each other for comfort--and in one weekend set in motion feelings that will resonate throughout the rest of their lives.]]>

It was an easy page turner that kept you interested and made you care about the characters.  If you are looking for a good book that's a light read, this is the book for you.]]></body>

    <![CDATA[<strong>From #1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author Nicholas Sparks comes a tender story of hope and joy, of sacrifice and forgiveness--a moving reminder that love is possible at any age, at any time, and often comes when we least expect it.</strong><br/>Reeling with heartache after her husband abandons her for a younger woman, Adrienne Willis flees to the small coastal town of Rodanthe, North Carolina, to tend a friend's inn. Here she hopes to find the tranquillity she so desperately needs to rethink her life. But almost as soon as she gets there, a major storm is forecast and a guest named Dr. Paul Flanner arrives. At fifty-four, Paul has just sold his medical practice and is trying to escape his own shattered past. Now, with a fierce nor'easter closing in, two wounded people will turn to each other for comfort--and in one weekend set in motion feelings that will resonate throughout the rest of their lives.]]>
