Reeling with heartache and in search of a respite, she flees to the small coastal town of Rodanthe, North Carolina to tend to a friend's inn for the weekend. But when a major storm starts moving in, it appears that Adrienne's perfect getaway will be ruined -- until a guest named Paul Flanner arrives. At fifty-four, Paul has just sold his medical practice and come to Rodanthe to escape his own shattered past. Now, with the storm closing in, two wounded people will turn to each other for comfort -- and in one weekend set in motion feelings that will resonate throughout the rest of their lives.

MY REVIEW
As with most of the novels written by Nicholas Sparks, this was such a beautiful story of love, romance and tragedy.
This story is basically about Adrienne and Paul who meet one weekend. We follow them as we discover more and more of their backstory and following their relationship as they grow closer and closer together.
What I liked the most was that this was not one of those love stories that were based on 20-year old somethings. Adrienne and Paul are in their 40s. They have already lived a life and certainly both have some kind of baggage before they met. Not only are they getting to know each other and getting closer, but they have to learn about each other's pasts as well.
A beautiful story that I just could not put down and would certainly highly recommend!
