hopeless romantic - great story

Would you consider the audio edition of The Lucky One to be better than the print version?

I would love to be in the middle of a real story like this one - if only life was like this story!!!

Sparks PTSD?

Once again, the wind-up was too slow. But then, the hook happens and I am hooked. I was terrified about what the tragedy would be, and then worried all the to the end. Sometime one has to be very brave to read a Sparks book. I’m ready for another. Thanks from a little old lady.

Didn’t See That Ending Coming!

Nicholas Sparks still has the ability to keep the reader guessing just “how” it will all work out and didn’t disappoint in this book either.

Loved the Lucky One

If you could sum up The Lucky One in three words, what would they be?

Better than Movie!!

What did you like best about this story?

How a soldier followed his heart that lead him to the love of his life.

What does John Bedford Lloyd bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

My first audible, so it took a bit of adjusting. I'm not sure I like a man making his voice sound like a woman's, but he did a pretty good job.

Who was the most memorable character of The Lucky One and why?

Logan. He had such a strong, patient, presence that couldn't be ignored. I loved his relationship with his dog, Zeus, showing his soft side.
