Seventeen year old Veronica "Ronnie" Miller's life was turned upside-down when her parents divorced and her father moved from New York City to Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina. Three years later, she remains angry and alientated from her parents, especially her father...until her mother decides it would be in everyone's best interest if she spent the summer in Wilmington with him. Ronnie's father, a former concert pianist and teacher, is living a quiet life in the beach town, immersed in creating a work of art that will become the centerpiece of a local church.
If the story sounds familiar, it may be because you have seen the trailer for the movie (by the same name) adaptation of the book starring Greg Kinnear and Miley Cyrus which hits theatres on March 31st.
Why not read the book before seeing the movie? There is a reading group guide available that poses some great questions for discussions with friends or your book club.
To enter for a chance to win a copy of the book, please leave a comment below and include your email. The books will be sent directly to you from Hachette; US and Canadian residents only, no PO Boxes. The contest will close on March 14th
Good Luck!
Oooh, the movie trailers for this are interesting (despite the fact that I'm not the biggest Miley Cyrus fan...), and I love Nicholas Sparks so definitely enter me! My email is boredd09ATgmailDOTcom. Looking forward to your review!

The movie trailer looks lovely, especially the scene where she's outlined in shells. I'd love to take a look at the book now. :)

I've never read a Nicholas Sparks book yet. I enjoyed the movie for Dear John much more than I expected to however and am curious to read that book now so maybe I'd like this one too.
