The Last Song - Paperback

by Nicholas Sparks (Author)

From the bestselling author of The Notebook comes a moving tale of redemption and first love when a rebellious teenager decides to spend the summer with her estranged father.

"Raw emotion, young love, family angst, and--ultimately--sweet resolution." ―BookPage

Seventeen-year-old Veronica "Ronnie" Miller's life was turned upside down when her parents divorced and her father moved from New York City to Wilmington, North Carolina. Three years later, she remains angry and alienated from her parents, especially her father ... until her mother decides it would be in everyone's best interest if she spent the summer in Wilmington with him.

Ronnie's father, a former concert pianist and teacher, is living a quiet life in the beach town, immersed in creating a work of art that will become the centerpiece of a local church.

What unfolds is an unforgettable story of love--first love, love between parents and children--that demonstrates, as only a Nicholas Sparks novel can, the many ways that love can break our hearts ... and heal them.
