    <![CDATA[#1 New York Times bestseller Nicholas Sparks turns his unrivaled talents to a new tale about love found and lost, and the choices we hope we'll never have to make. Travis Parker has everything a man could want: a good job, loyal friends, even a waterfront home in small-town North Carolina. In full pursuit of the good life - boating, swimming , and regular barbecues with his good-natured buddies -- he holds the vague conviction that a serious relationship with a woman would only cramp his style. That is, until Gabby Holland moves in next door. Spanning the eventful years of young love, marriage and family, THE CHOICE ultimately confronts us with the most heartwrenching question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?<br/><br/><br/>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[For all you Nicholas Sparks fans out there, rest assured, he's done it again.  He's written another ridiculously perfect, impossible not to cry over, romance.  I'm usually not a fan of this type of work, but as I've said before, there's something about a Nicholas Sparks book I can't resist.
