After U.S. Marine Logan Thibault
finds a photograph of a smiling young woman buried in the dirt during
his tour of duty in Iraq, he experiences a sudden streak of luck —
winning poker games and even surviving deadly combat. Only his best
friend, Victor, seems to have an explanation for his good fortune: the
photograph — his lucky charm.
Back home in Colorado, Thibault
can't seem to get the woman in the photograph out of his mind and he
sets out on a journey across the country to find her. But Thibault is
caught off guard by the strong attraction he feels for the woman he
encounters in North Carolina - Elizabeth, a divorced mother — and he
keeps the story of the photo, and his luck, a secret. As he and
Elizabeth embark upon a passionate love affair, his secret soon
threatens to tear them apart — destroying not only their love, but also
their lives.
Filled with tender romance and
terrific suspense, THE LUCKY ONE is an unforgettable story about the
surprising paths our lives often take and the power of fate to guide us
to true and everlasting love.
How did I not know about this book before now??!! The Lucky One has been one of my favorite Nicholas Sparks books! I saw that the movie was coming out, so of course I had to read the book first. :)
As always, the characters are vivid, the storyline unique, and it's a love story you can't help but to fall in love with. I can't wait to see the movie, just to re-live the story again. Recommended!
