At First Sight, by Nicholas Sparks

At First Sight by Nicholas Sparks is the continuation of the novel True Believer. Jeremy Marsh never imagined himself getting married again. Especially after a devastating failed marriage. As Jeremy Marsh starts his new life in a small town Boone Creek in North Carolina with his fiance, Lexie Darnell, the couple faces more and more challenges. Jeremy has never imagined being a father but in this new life he is about to start with Lexie, he is going to start a family right away. All seems well with the couple at first, but after a few bumps in the road, the daily grind starts to kick in and the couple faces more and more difficult problems. Being newlyweds doesn't mean that the honeymoon stage will last forever. The novel is told in Jeremy Marsh's perspective when he reminisces on the past he and his wife had spent together and explains the story to his own little girl. Although the girl is young, she tries to imagine and understand what her father and mother went through.

I give this book a 4 out of 5 because of Sparks' well writtne novel once again. This book explains the trials of new couples and that love can withstand anything. Love can give one memories that he or she will cherish forever. With every sadness comes a new happiness and new memories.
