Publisher's summary

After thirty years of marriage, Wilson Lewis, son-in-law of Allie and Noah Calhoun (of The Notebook), is forced to admit that the romance has gone out of his marriage. Desperate to win back his wife, Jane's, heart, he must figure out how to make her fall in love with him... again.

Despite the shining example of Allie and Noah's marriage, Wilson is himself a man unable to easily express his emotions. A successful estate attorney, he has provided well for his family, but now, with his daughter's upcoming wedding, he is forced to face the fact that he and Jane have grown apart and he wonders if she even loves him anymore. Wilson is sure of one thing - his love for his wife has only deepened and intensified over the years. Now, with the memories of his in-laws' magnificent fifty-year love affair as his guide, Wilson struggles to find his way back into the heart of the woman he adores.

Annoying elevator music

I really hate the music in the background. This is the second Nicholas sparks book I read like this (see me) and frankly it is annoying!! Story was good though.

Great Love story!

I have read most of Nicholas Sparks books and everytime I tell myself that his character is so affectionate and more than average sensitive man. Everyone who is in a relationship can relate to Wilson and Jane's character. Relationship is a hard work. You have to keep it alive and interesting to keep it going. The book is easy listening and heart warming......

solid sequel

Although this sequel is nowhere near as good as the Note book, it is still captivating.

Love at its best

A love story told as only Nicholas Sparks could. As the plans for Anna's wedding progressed and Wilson was able to accomplish miracles with the preparations in the limited window of a week, I was thinking to myself how absurd the plot...this should be a fairy tale.... and then it WAS a fairy tale....a beautiful ending. A beautiful story of love. Tom Wopat's clear, sexy, voice was perfect for the too-good to be true Wilson. I loved it! Easily an equal to The Notebook.
