A MAJOR MOTIONPICTURE FROM TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX. OPENS APRIL 10, 2015. STARRING SCOTT EASTWOOD, BRITT ROBERTSON, ALAN ALDA. WITH PHOTOS FROM THE MOVIE.

In the tradition of his beloved first novel, The Notebook, #1 New York Times bestselling author Nicholas Sparks returns with the remarkable story of two couples whose lives intersect in profound and surprising ways.

Ira Levinson is in trouble. Ninety-one years old and stranded and injured after a car crash, he struggles to retain consciousness until a blurry image materializes beside him: his beloved wife Ruth, who passed away nine years ago. Urging him to hang on, she forces him to remain alert by recounting the stories of their lifetime together.

A few miles away, at a local bull-riding event, a Wake Forest College senior's life is about to change. Recovering from a recent break-up, Sophia Danko meets a young cowboy named Luke, who bears little resemblance to the privileged frat boys she has encountered at school. Through Luke, Sophia is introduced to a world in which the stakes of survival and success, ruin and reward -- even life and death - loom large in everyday life. As she and Luke fall in love, Sophia finds herself imagining a future far removed from her plans -- a future that Luke has the power to rewrite . . . if the secret he's keeping doesn't destroy it first.

Ira and Ruth. Sophia and Luke. Two couples who have little in common, and who are separated by years and experience. Yet their lives will converge with unexpected poignancy, reminding us all that even the most difficult decisions can yield extraordinary journeys: beyond despair, beyond death, to the farthest reaches of the human heart.

    I admit it, I’ve watched more of his work than I’ve read. Seen NIGHTS IN RODANTHE, THE NOTEBOOK, SAFE HAVEN, THE LUCKY ONE, THE BEST OF ME…watched AND read A WALK TO remember. What can I say? Despite the fact that I know I’m going to leave crying, I still keep coming back. Thanks for the share and the giveaway!

The book was extraordinary and the movie made my heart happy and I always smile!! His writing is amazing and I always look forward to his new books and movies. I am picking up my library copy of The Longest Ride tomorrow and I believe that the Longest Ride is going to be awesome in every way!

    Yes, I have read Dear John, The Lucky One, The Best of Me and a few others. The Lucky One is probably my favorite – both book and movie!
