Skipped over 100 pages and went to the last few chapters. The book was unnecessarily long.

It took me a little while to fully immerse myself in the story, but once I got into it, I was hooked until the end. I've been an avid Nicholas Sparks reader since middle school, and I know that a lot of his books have some sort of suspense in them, but I feel like this particular one has enough suspense and thrill to outweigh the romance, and I kind of loved that switch-up.

Not a very Nicholas Sparks-esque book. I had the bad guy(s) figured out but I still really enjoyed it.

Das war sehr überraschend für ein Sparks Roman, man könnte es ja fast einen Thriller nennen. Aber eben auch nur fast. Der Bad Boy und das Good Girl, schwierige Vergangenheit auf beiden Seiten und ein unheimlicher Verfolger. Ich fand es besser als einige andere Sparks Bücher, die ich gelesen habe. Empfehlenswert für alle die eine Liebesgeschichte mit ein bisschen Spannung mögen.

We listened to this book on a trip. The beginning dragged and dragged. It was torture. It finally got into a story, but even I figured it out--and I am not known to do this.

I have read many of Nicholas Sparks’ gems and first fell in love with and got hooked on his books after reading “The Notebook”. Since then I have read most of his books, enjoying some more than others and coming across some more gems. Sadly, this book missed the mark for me. I found it to be long and drawn out and just lacked the usual “lustre” and deeply moving, emotional connection that I’ve come to expect when reading a Sparks book.
