Ok, cheesy and squishy, fast and corny, fun and romantic. In typical Nicholas Sparks fashion, we have a 17 year old girl who doesn't get along with dad because he left them 3 years earlier. Ronnie (short for Veronica) is spending the summer with her dad along with her little brother. She is resentful and rebellious. She meets a boy (of course) and falls in love. It's very sweet, but the boy comes from a well-to-do family and his mother does not care for Ronnie.
Throughout the summer she begins to let her guard down and comes around finally towards her dad. Ronnie finds out her dad is terminally ill. She decides to stay. And that's all I'll say about the plot...
I enjoy Sparks' books. They are about real people, with real problems. And though it can be squishy, cheesy, corny etc. they make you feel good.
