Seventeen year old Veronica "Ronnie" Miller's life was turned upside-down when her parents divorced and her father moved from
New York City to Wilmington, North Carolina. Three years later, she remains angry and
alienated from her parents, especially her father...until her mother decides it would be in everyone's best interest if she
spent the summer in Wilmington with him. Ronnie's father, a former concert pianist and teacher, is living a quiet life in
the beach town, immersed in creating a work of art that will become the centerpiece of a local church.
The tale
that unfolds is an unforgettable story of love on many levels - first love, love between parents and children - that demonstrates,
as only a Nicholas Sparks novel can, the many ways that love can break our hearts...and heal them.
