CM - Dear John - Nicholas Sparks

This book is a story about an angry rebel named John Tyree who enlisted in the army after high school because he didn't know what else to do. Then, during a furlough, he meets Savannah Lynn Curtis, the girl of his dreams. She is in North Carolina attending college and working for Habitat for Humanity and is completely unprepared for her feelings for John Tyree.

The attraction is mutual and quickly grows into the kind of love that makes Savannah vow to wait for John while he finishes his tour of duty, and John is ready to settle down with the woman that captured his heart. Neither one of them can foresee that 9/11 is about to change the world and that single day forces John to risk every dream he's ever had. Like so many soldiers, John is forced to choose between love and his devotion to the country. And like so many left behind, Savannah has to decide whether to wait for John or move on.

This one was a good read, but then again I am never disappointed when I finish a Sparks novel.
