Product Description #1 New York Times bestseller Nicholas Sparks turns his unrivaled talents to a new tale about love found and lost, and the choices we hope we'll never have to make.
Travis Parker has everything a man could want: a good job, loyal friends, even a waterfront home in small-town North Carolina. In full pursuit of the good life - boating, swimming , and regular barbecues with his good-natured buddies -- he holds the vague conviction that a serious relationship with a woman would only cramp his style. That is, until Gabby Holland moves in next door. Spanning the eventful years of young love, marriage and family, THE CHOICE ultimately confronts us with the most heartwrenching question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?

Hard To Believe? 05 January, 2009 This book reminded me of the Terri Shavo (sp?) case and what would have happened if the other decision had been made... Though I like Sparks' mindless story, it was a bit hard for me to believe that Gabby and Travis were really in love from their first encounter. It seemed as though Sparks had to use a lot of wordy reinforcement for an unnatural love. However, it was a page-turner and a great break from reality...

Very Touching Story 17 November, 2008 The Choice is about two neighbors, a man named Travis and a woman named Gabby. Gabby finds out her purebread dog is pregnant and is furious. She has never spoke with her neighbor before, but she assumes his dog is the one who got hers pregnant. She storms over to his house and screams at him about it. Although this is their first encounter, Travis is infatuated by Gabby and decides to try as hard as he can to get to know her. They come to find out they are a perfect match for each other. The only problem is Gabby is already dating a man named Kevin, who until she met Travis was planning to marry.
I loved this book! I laughed out loud a couple of times and I cried a couple of times. I have read a few others by Nicholas Sparks and they all had basically the same theme. Man marrys woman. Woman dies. Man meets new woman, but cant get over 1st woman. This one is totally different. Travis is a single man, who has never really had any serious relationships. Everything about this book has something to do with making a choice. This book is a quick read...I read most of it while I was flying to and from my destination. Then once I got home, the first thing I did was sit down and finish the last 30 pages. I highly recommend it.

The Choice Is A Great Choice! 04 January, 2009 I would not be surprised if this book was turned into a movie. The twist and turns made it very hard to put the book down. If you like a good romance story this is a must read!
