A Walk to Remember

A high school rebel and a minister's daughter find strength in each
other in this star-crossed tale of young but everlasting love (Chicago
Sun-Times).


There was a time when the world was sweeter....when
the women in Beaufort, North Carolina, wore dresses, and the men donned
hats.... Every April, when the wind smells of both the sea and lilacs,
Landon Carter remembers 1958, his last year at Beaufort High. Landon had
dated a girl or two, and even once sworn that he'd been in love.
Certainly the last person he thought he'd fall for was Jamie, the shy,
almost ethereal daughter of the town's Baptist minister....Jamie, who
was destined to show him the depths of the human heart-and the joy and
pain of living. The inspiration for this novel came from Nicholas
Sparks's sister: her life and her courage. From the internationally
bestselling author Nicholas Sparks, comes his most moving story yet....
