وصف الناشر
Opposites attract in this moving #1 New York Times bestseller of love lost and found between a medical student and the man who captures her heart.
Travis Parker has everything a man could want: a good job, loyal friends, even a waterfront home in small-town North Carolina. In full pursuit of the good life—boating, swimming, and regular barbecues with his good-natured buddies—he holds the vague conviction that a serious relationship with a woman would only cramp his style. That is, until Gabby Holland moves in next door.
Despite his attempts to be neighborly, the appealing redhead seems to have a chip on her shoulder about him . . . and the presence of her longtime boyfriend doesn’t help. Despite himself, Travis can’t stop trying to ingratiate himself with his new neighbor, and his persistent efforts lead them both to the doorstep of a journey that neither could have foreseen.
Spanning the eventful years of young love, marriage, and family, The Choice ultimately confronts us with the most heart-wrenching question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In his 13th book, bestselling Sparks (At First Sight, etc.) limns the far-reaching implications of several seemingly ordinary choices made by Beaufort, N.C. veterinarian Travis Parker and his next-door neighbor Gabrielle Holland, a physician's assistant and recent arrival. After an inauspicious first meeting where Gabby accuses Travis's boxer of impregnating her purebred collie, the two fall hard for each other. Already dating someone else seriously, Gabby is faced with a dilemma: whether to stick with longtime boyfriend Kevin, or get involved with Travis. The first part of the tale paints a vivid picture of her decision-making process and its effects on Travis and Gabby's lives. That sets up Part II, which takes place 11 years later when Travis faces a life and death decision following a car accident. A tender and moving love story and a quick read, Sparks's latest does not disappoint.

I bought this book along with "The Last Song," during the summer. Not really sure what to expect I was completely amazed. This book is in no way, shape, or form predictable. I completely fell in love with it's outcome. It's a great story that makes you really think about love and it's importance in life.
The Choice
Unlike most of Sparks books, The Choice, moves quickly and wastes far less time getting to the story. The character development builds as the story progresses and holds your attention from the very beginning.
Your natural assumption as to what "the choice" is, is easy to figure out...and the master fools you once again, as the choice is far from what you might expect.... A far greater choice is made in typical Sparks fashion, throwing the reader into the trap that will trick even the saviest of Sparks fans.
One of his best!
The Choice
I enjoyed this book as I do all of his novels but have to admit it was very heart wrenching. I would’ve done the same thing as he did so you’ll just have to read the book to see what he chose to do. Enjoy!
