Adrienne Willis is 45 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 respite, she's gone to the coastal village of Rodanthe in North Carolina 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 54, 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 town in hopes of closing a painful chapter in his past. Adrienne and Paul come together as the storm brews 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.BR/BR/BR/ COMING SOON AS A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE starring Richard Gere and Diane Lane.

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. br /
Truly Heartwarming November 8, 2008
Kay Schan
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!
 excellent book November 6, 2008
F. J. Gray (Smithville, TX usa)
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.
 Predictable but enjoyable November 4, 2008
Amanda Miller (Indiana, USA)
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.
Predictable November 3, 2008
K. S. Fries
As always, Nicholas Sparks provides a pleasant, predictable diversion in this book. What you think should happen does;somehow the characters are not so engaging that one really cares about their plight, so it's easy to maintain a distance. The sadness that does occur is softly wrapped up in sparkling, gossamer romantic visions, blunting any emotional ties to the characters. Easy week-end read
