Adrienne Willis is forty-five and has been divorced for three years, abandoned by her husband for a younger woman. The trials of raising her teenage children and caring for her sick father have worn her down, but at the request of a friend and in hopes of a respite, she’s gone to the coastal village of Rodanthe in North Carolina’s outer banks to tend the local inn for the weekend.
With a major storm brewing, the time away doesn’t look promising…until a guest named Paul Flanner arrives.

At fifty-four, Paul is a successful surgeon but in the previous six months his life has unraveled into something he doesn’t recognize. Estranged from his son and recently divorced, he’s sold his practice and his home and has journeyed to this isolated coastal town in hopes of closing a painful chapter in his past, completely unaware that his life is about to change forever.

Adrienne and Paul come together as the storm gathers strength over Rodanthe, but what begins between them over the weekend will resonate throughout the rest of their lives, intertwining past and future, love and loss.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Cheesy and highly predictable
Comment: I have to say the beginning of this book gave me a big warning that the writing was going to be very elementary and to top it all of a sappy love story. I like love stories which is why I picked this book up, but the writing was horrible! I can't believe this is a best selling author. I remember a few year back I read the notebook and a walk to remember and I at least liked those. I was disappointed and I wish he would have done a better job selling the reader this story.

Summary: An outstanding audio acquisition
Comment: Nicholas Sparks' NIGHTS IN RODANTHE receives JoBeth Williams' fine narrative style as it provides a novel of heartache and new love. After her husband abandons her for a younger woman, Adrienne flees to the small coastal town of Rodanthe in North Carolina to tend a friend's inn there to find a major storm and a mid-aged man change her life. Their weekend together will make a big difference in this warm romance of love between very different people. An outstanding audio acquisition.

Summary: Truly Heartwarming
Comment: I am not a person who tends to enjoy a "sappy love story" novel but I fell in love with this book after reading only about 3 pages! I couldn't put it down! It shows the true strength of love between 2 characters despite their distance apart and hardships faced in life. Truly is heartwarming... makes you laugh, cry, and just want to run to the one you love and give them a hug at the end!

Summary: excellent book
Comment: I found the book to be very well written. Had I not seen the movie first, I would definately have gone to see asap. The book had me in tears when they had their mother and daughter talk about lost love.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Predictable but enjoyable
Comment: Nicholas Sparks is a reliable writer, always delving up heart-warming and gut-wrenching moments. Nights in Rodanthe was predictable but nonetheless entertaining. Read this if you want a good romance.
