True Believer

By: Nicholas Sparks

Narrated by: David Aaron Baker

Equal parts love and ghost story, an unforgettable romance about a science journalist and a North Carolina librarian who dare to believe in the impossible, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Notebook.

As a science journalist with a regular column in Scientific American, Jeremy Marsh specializes in debunking the supernatural—until he falls in love with the granddaughter of the town psychic.

When Jeremy receives a letter from Boone Creek, North Carolina, about ghostly lights appearing in a cemetery, he can't resist driving down to investigate. Here, in this tightly knit community, Lexie Darnell runs the town's library. Disappointed by past relationships, she is sure of one thing: her future is in Boone Creek, close to all the people she loves.

From the moment Jeremy sets eyes on Lexie, he is intrigued. And Lexie, while hesitating to trust this outsider, finds herself thinking of him more than she cares to admit. Now, if they are to be together, Jeremy must do something he's never done before-take a giant leap of faith.

A love story about taking chances and following your heart, True Believer will make you believe in the miracle of love.

Critic reviews

"Gloriously sweet."—PublishersWeekly

"Poignant, intimate, and hopeful, this is a novel to read, treasure, and share. Highly recommended."—LibraryJournal

Absolutely beautiful

This is absolutely beautiful and I'm not just saying this because I am a huge Nicholas Sparks fan but this book has it's own magical feel to it. Makes you believe that you can find magic in everything. Just perfect.

Music

The music at the end, or beginning of chapters were very distracting, unnecessary and too loud.

Not one of my favorites

I haven't read a Nicholas Sparks book in several years, and I picked the wrong one to start back on. I didn't connect with any of these characters. It was missing the emotional ride that you expect with his books.

Lexie Darnell returned home to Boone Creek, North Carolina after a failed relationship and vows she will stay there with her psychic grandmother.

Jeremy Marsh is a New York City journalist that specializes in debunking the supernatural. He comes to Boone Creek to uncover the truth about ghost sightings and falls for the librarian, Lexie.

Hard to hang in

I don’t know why but I had a tough time sticking with this story. I usually love Nicks work. The music was interesting but too much!! Some points it went on for too long.
