Reeling with heartache and in search of a respite, she flees to the small coastal town of Rodanthe, North Carolina, to tend to a friend's inn for the weekend. But when a major storm starts moving in, it appears that Adrienne's perfect getaway will be ruined-until a guest naed Paul Flanner arrives.At 54, Paul has just sold his medical practice and come to Rodanthe to escape his own shattered past.

Never read "Romance" but . . this one was worth the read October 13, 2008 I NEVER read romance novels. This one caught my eye. Nights in Rodanthe is worth the read. It has a story within a story and keeps you turning the pages.
!00% Customer Satisfaction October 13, 2008 I found the ease of ordering this book to be a pleasant departure from some more antiquated systems. The product was received within a short period of time and its' condition was as described in the advertisement. I am a happy camper!
TOO PREDICTABLE October 13, 2008 First off let me start by saying I love Sparks and own all of his books. I just read this one, and it was awful. I knew what was going to happen after the 5th page. The book was too short, and there were not enough pages devoted to the weekend at the Inn. BORING!
Of all books of Sparks to make into a movie, I can't believe they chose this one. There are others that are much better, such as A Bend in the Road or At First Sight.
Nights in Rodanthe October 12, 2008 When I first starting reading this book, I felt that it was very slow and did not understand the plot. The story starts off, as a sad women named Adrienne is dealing with the fact that her daughter is trying to grieving the death of her husband. She tells her about her time in Rodanthe and the man that changed her life. I think the book had a good theme to it, I just wish that it had a little more romance to it. Not one of Sparks best.
Never Again! October 11, 2008 I have wasted my last dime on a Nicholas Sparks novel. After all the hype I finally purchased a copy in hopes that this time I wouldn't be disappointed. No such luck. The story is incredibly thin. The characters never capture the reader's heart or imagination. And, worst of all, why is Sparks seemingly incapable of writing a love story that lasts beyond a few days? I am sick and tired of woman (who life has treated a bit roughly) meets man (also battered by life); fall madly in love, but need to clean up one more thing before they can be together. Man dies during said clean-up and woman spends rest of life living on memories. Get a new formula or stop writing!
