There are a few things Jeremy Marsh was sure he'd never do: he'd never leave New York City; never give his heart away again after barely surviving one failed marriage; and, most of all, never become a parent. Now, Jeremy is living in the tiny town of Boone Creek, North Carolina, married to Lexie Darnell, the love of his life, and anticipating the birth of their daughter. But just as his life seems to be settling into a blissful pattern, an unsettling and mysterious message re-opens old wounds and sets off a chain of events that will forever change the course of this young couple's marriage.

Dramatic, heartbreaking and surprising, this is a story about the love between a man and a woman and between a parent and a child. More than that, it is a story that beautifully portrays how the same emotion that can break your heart is also the one that will ultimately heal it.

While the novel picks up the tale of Lexie Darnell and Jeremy Marsh that started in True Believer and will delight fans of that novel, it stands on its own as one of Nicholas Sparks's most deeply moving love stories.

My favorite by Nicholas Sparks

I have read many of Nicholas Sparks' novels, but this one was by far my favorite. The story begins where "True Believer" left off, which is also a very good book. The story of Jeremy and Lexie is continued as they begin their lives together (I won't say too much for anyone wanting to read True Believer!) and the complications that arise while they receive bad news, deal with betrayal, guilt, suspicion, and the stresses marriage can create. I love the way Sparks writes and I feel this was perfectly done. I was left completely emotionally attached to the characters, feeling exactly as they felt as the novel moved along. In the end, I truly cried. I expected to be sad, but hadn't anticipated the ending at all. It was a beautifully touching book that I would recommend to anyone who likes Nicholas Sparks, is getting married, wants to have children/has children, or just enjoys an emotional story written beautifully.

Beautiful story

I'm so glad I read True Believer first, because I didn't know this was a sequel to it. I kind of agree with another reviewer that said the novels should have been one, but maybe Sparks wasn't planning a sequel when he wrote True Believer. I loved True Believer, hated for it to end, so I was excited when I realized At First Sight was a continuation. This book really made me think more about how important the little things are in life, and how wonderful it is to have someone truly love you.


Pretty great

Overall, I loved this book. It kept me turning the page. I really thought it was well written. I thought that Lexie's baby was by someone else and that she was just trying to keep Jeremy around by telling him he's the father. I don't feel like Alvin's character was played out all the way. Like I said, great book overall.

Okay but Not Near His Best

This book is a romance between Jeremy, a successful New York
magazine columnist, who falls in love with Lexie, a country girl, and moves to her neck of the woods away from the city. The author delves into the dynamics of friendship, commitment, marriage, pregnancy and fatherhood. It gave insights into the adjustments involved in entering and maintaining a serious relationship by centering on Jeremy's and Lexie's feelings as their relationship progressed. The ending surprised me so I'd say it is a good book and recommend it to anyone who likes romance.
