There are a few things Jeremy Marsh was sure he'd never do:
he'd never leave New York City; never give his heart away again
after barely surviving one failed marriage; and, most of all, never
become a parent. Now, Jeremy is living in the tiny town of Boone
Creek, North Carolina, married to Lexie Darnell, the love of his
life, and anticipating the birth of their daughter. But just as his
life seems to be settling into a blissful pattern, an unsettling
and mysterious message re-opens old wounds and sets off a chain of
events that will forever change the course of this young couple's
marriage.
Dramatic, heartbreaking and surprising, this is a story about the
love between a man and a woman and between a parent and a child.
More than that, it is a story that beautifully portrays how the
same emotion that can break your heart is also the one that will
ultimately heal it.
While the novel picks up the tale of Lexie Darnell and Jeremy
Marsh that started in True Believer and will delight fans of that
novel, it stands on its own as one of Nicholas Sparks's most deeply
moving love stories.
