The Best of Me, by Nicholas Sparks

The Best of Me, by Nicholas Sparks, centers on Dawson Cole and Amanda Collier's amazing love story. They fall in love at seventeen years old and we watch not only them grow up, but how as their relationship grow so do the obstacles. Twenty years after they went separate ways fate brings them back together. We get to see them fight for real love, and how Dawson gives up everything for the love of his life, Amanda.

We all know Nicholas Sparks' novels are amazing, so it is obvious The Best of Me is not an exception. It is a beautiful love story and is not like any other love stories it is not predictable. The ending of the novel does have mixed reviews, but whether or not you like the ending the book is brilliant. You also have to keep in mind that his books are not fairy tales, they're reality. The Best of Me shows us a second chance in love and it is a novel you will remember forever.
