But underneath his seemingly perfect world, cracks are beginning to appear ... and no one is more surprised than Russ when the life he took for granted is turned upside down. Finding himself single-handedly caring for his young daughter, while trying to launch his own business, the only thing Russ knows is that he must shelter his little girl from the consequences of these changes. As Russ embarks on this daunting and unexpected new chapter of his life, a chance encounter will challenge him to find a happiness beyond anything he could ever have imagined.

Despite watching many movies based on his books, this is the first Nicholas Sparks novel I've read.
A lovely gentle read, I knew what was coming (being an author makes it hard not to figure out a plot in advance!) yet enjoyed watching it unfold.
Great characterisation and I particularly liked the whole book being first person male POV.
The Last book I read by Nicolas Sparks was Rescue Me and that one I liked, I dont count the notebook because I read that at least once a year. Russ Vivian and London will make you fall in love with Nicholas Sparks all over again. I found Russ Green a very good character although there is lots less on his looks and lots more on his personality I dont see why many of the reviewers complained. I found the story touching in parts I wanted to shake some sense into Vivian I found her selfish and self absorbed. The supporting cast of characters was AWESOME minus the fact that by the end of the book I wanted to forget the name Walter. All and all I loved this book my bestfriend said that it made me bipolar because my reactions are so all over the place but to me that just means I enjoyed the book
DNF page 79. Wrong book at the wrong time for sure, though I don't know if there will ever be a right time with this one. I got this from my Bookcase Club romance box - and I know there's some debate whether Sparks actually qualifies as a romance writer - but so far this is not so much a romance as a painful story of two people who are painfully bad at being married and who are on their way to a painful divorce. And look, I just wanted some happy - I'm not currently in my own home, my son is in the NICU (he's doing fine, was just premature, though his long stay is taking its toll on me), and I want to get through the day with as little emotional distress as possible. Maybe when I don't have to drive 20 minutes, get my temperature taken, go to the 14th floor and make a phone call in order to see my baby, I'll be interested in fictional characters doing things other than falling in love.
