A U.S. Marine's brush with death leads him to the love of his life in this New York Times bestseller of destiny, luck, and the redemptive power of romance.

After U.S. Marine Logan Thibault finds a photograph of a smiling young woman buried in the dirt during his tour of duty in Iraq, he experiences a sudden streak of luck -- winning poker games and even surviving deadly combat. Only his best friend, Victor, seems to have an explanation for his good fortune: the photograph -- his lucky charm.

Back home in Colorado, Thibault can't seem to get the woman in the photograph out of his mind and he sets out on a journey across the country to find her. But Thibault is caught off guard by the strong attraction he feels for the woman he encounters in North Carolina - Elizabeth, a divorced mother -- and he keeps the story of the photo, and his luck, a secret. As he and Elizabeth embark upon a passionate love affair, his secret soon threatens to tear them apart -- destroying not only their love, but also their lives.

Filled with tender romance and terrific suspense, THE LUCKY ONE is an unforgettable story about the surprising paths our lives often take and the power of fate to guide us to true and everlasting love.

Resenhas (5)

4 (Muito bom)

Bom para se ler em uma viagem

Mesmo este sendo meu primeiro contato com Nicholas Sparks e não tendo muito com o que comparar, devo admitir que o hype dele é merecidíssimo!!!

O livro tem uma história muito amorzinho, que se segue até o final de uma maneira fluida, uma escrita que eu achei maravilhosa!

Só não dei 5 estrelas por que não gostei da maneira com que a personagem principal feminina foi desenvolvida (é praticamente como se ela não tivesse personalidade) mesmo com seu grande papel na história.

Ainda assim, é um ótimo livro para passar o tempo.
