As deputy sheriff of New Bern, North Carolina, he not only grieves for her and worries about their young son Jonah but longs to bring the unknown driver to justice.

 Rating:  - ONE OF HIS BEST!!!!!!!!!First of all let me say that I won't tell you the story like so many do on here.....that ruins the whole book, so I don't read reviews. I will say that you will love this one. It contains so many elements such as suspense, romance, children, and family. I have read 12 of Nicholas Sparks books including this one which I couldn't put down, and read it in 3 hours. You will cry, get mad, and say YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! I highly recommend this book for your library. Rating: - A Bend In The RoadThis is a tear jerker. Miles Ryan, deputy sheriff of a small town, loses his wife by a hit and run driver. Miles is devastated and is left to raise his son - alone. Miles tries to find the killer, but is unsuccessful, leaving him saddened and disappointed in himself as a person and as deputy sheriff.

I am still a fan of Nicholis though... just not one of his best Rating: - Sparks with a twistUsually, Sparks writes of bad circumstance, an illness or something else that affects a relationship. In this novel, there is an accident that affects many lives, Miles, Jonah, Missy and Sarah. You feel the pain both Miles and Jonah feel and the emotional hardship since the accident. You see the development of the characters as the story progresses. Sarah is introduced as Jonah's teacher who offers to work with Jonah to improve his reading skills. A relationship begins to develop between ... Read More Rating: - Don't read the book jacketI really enjoyed this fast read. It was predictable only because I read the book jacket when it said (spoiler?) that the secret would be closer to each of them (Sarah and Miles) than they would realize. Sarah being new to the small town, how many people could she and Miles know in common, Sarah's parents and brother being at the top of this list. I enjoyed the book, though. I'm glad it ended how it did, especially the candles! Browse for similar items by category:
