Editorial Reviews

A photograph found by chance; a chain of events that lead inexorably to the woman it portrays: The Lucky One traces a path so ephemeral and artful that we would know that Nicholas Sparks had written even if his name did not appear on the title page. This story about a man whose scrape with death leads to his one true love will keep you up at night and then make you sleep more soundly. Inimitable storytelling. Now in mass market paperback and NOOK Book. (P.S. The paperback edition cited in the movie tie-in version. We also stock the regular edition: 9780446618328, $7.99.)

— Tim Flannigan

"A tale of redemption . . . holds readers in suspense until the final chapter . . . it will test readers' beliefs in the power of destiny and fate, and how they relate to choices one makes in life."
