The Rescue - Nicholas Sparks

As I am an avid fan of Nicholas Sparks - this just one of the books in my collection. The story goes around a volunteer firefighter Taylor who known as the "risk taker" he will do anything for anyone - but there is one thing he cant do - and that is to fall in love. There is one rescue what will test this promise he has made with himself which involved a mother of a disabled child - will this rescue him from the lack of love? Its amazing how Sparks describes the characters and their emotions. Nicholas Sparks has an amazing talent of drawing the reader into the story, and just sweeping you away; it just makes you want to read ...  Read the complete review

This is the second time I’ve found a special favourite book by novelist Nicholas Sparks a well-loved author of romantic fiction and a consistent best seller in the New York Times. So why does his books appeal so much in a genre that is normally considered a women’s territory? Unlike many American authors he writes with simplicity about the feelings of both genders indeed he sometimes appears to have a rare insight into the human psyche that surpasses many a novel written in any language and in any particular place. Although most of his books are set in the region of North Carolina it’s easy for the reader to see the setting in terms of their own country. The usual ...  Read the complete review

Yes it is another Nicholas Sparks book review, I am just about to sell some of my Nicholas Sparks books on as I really don't have any more room in my room for books, and as I've read them all a billion times they're pretty much in my mind now. Nicholas Sparks is a well known American author who writes romantic fiction, he is constantly the best seller in the New York Times list, and the one thing that I like is he uses the names of his huge family in his books, and uses a lot of himself to write. I believe all of his books are set in his home town of North Carolina. The Rescue I have to say was probably one of the weakest books that I have read by ...  Read the complete review

The Rescue is a very good book, I feel it's safe to say that it is one of my favourite Nicholas Sparks books and as Nicholas Sparks is one of my favourite authors it makes it one of the best books that I have ever read. As with all his books this story is set in North Carolina. It starts off with a raging storm, one that could be considered record breaking. Denise and her son Kyle are driving along when their car skids off the road. When Denise comes round the fire department are there but her son isn't. This sends her into a major panic as not only is her son missing, but he is only 4 years old and he has severe learning difficulties. Taylor, a volunteer fireman, goes ...  Read the complete review

The first time I ever read a book by Nicholas Sparks I was addicted. The book I read was "The Rescue". This book was done superbly and intangled you into the story almost immediately. I know for myself this was another one of his books I just couldn't put down. The two main characters,Taylor McAden and Denise Holton, get your emotions wound up right away. And that's just at the beginning of the book. Denise is a single mom left on her own with a handicapped child. She fights tooth and nail for her child, Kyle. The book shows the work and devotion that she has for Kyle. She stands right by Kyles side giving him every assistance so that he can try to ...  Read the complete review
