3.5 stars. The ending was good, and the story line along the way too. But kind of slow at times.

When you're reading Nicholas Sparks, you kind of know what to expect. I thought the romance was terribly written and felt incredibly forced. I thought about DNF'ing more than once in the first half of the book. When the book became more suspenseful, the writing improved a lot and I became a lot more invested in the characters. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to make up for the shallow beginning (even for Nicholas Sparks).

The only reason it isn’t five stars is I felt like the ending was rushed. There was a huge ending and then Sparks very quickly tied the bow. But otherwise it was a very thrilling book! I really enjoyed it!

ok this is the most thriller of any Nicholas Sparks book and it did have me on the edge of my seat wondering who was after her
the romance was cute but sometimes I felt like the protectiveness was too much?? (though it was good character building that we learned exactly why he was this way)
I will say I was more invested in solving the crime than the romance

The beginning was a bit hard to get into, but it picked up eventually.
