Here are the recent released books by Nicholas Sparks
Title: Safe Haven
Published Date: 2010
Description:
When a mysterious young woman named Katie appears in the small North Carolina town of Southport, her sudden arrival raises questions about her past. Beautiful yet self-effacing, Katie seems determined to avoid forming personal ties until a series of events draws her into two reluctant relationships: one with Alex, a widowed store owner with a kind heart and two young children; and another with her plainspoken single neighbor, Jo. Despite her reservations, Katie slowly begins to let down her guard, putting down roots in the close-knit community and becoming increasingly attached to Alex and his family.
But even as Katie begins to fall in love, she struggles with the dark secret that still haunts and terrifies her . . . a past that set her on a fearful, shattering journey across the country, to the sheltered oasis of Southport. With Jo’s empathic and stubborn support, Katie eventually realizes that she must choose between a life of transient safety and one of riskier rewards . . . and that in the darkest hour, love is the only true safe haven.
FAQS:
What was his inspiration for this book?
The inspiration for the story, like most of his novels, comes from the depths of a creative well, based on asking his self questions over and over. In other words, it wasn't any one thing that inspired him to write this novel. He tried to write something different each time he sit down to write; He try to surprise the readers.
It had been a long time since He had written anything to do with danger. I think the last one was The Guardian—and that was published eight or nine years ago—and that's been a fan favorite. So He thought, "OK, what's an element of danger I can put into a new story?" And from there, the thought process just kind of took over, and voila! The story Safe Haven came out.
Reviews:
Fans know what to expect from Nicholas Sparks: a compelling love story centered on two appealing individuals. In SAFE HAVEN, readers find that -- and much more…. Sparks expertly amps up the suspense -- turning what has been a pleasant romance into a riveting 'read all night' page-turner.

Hi Guys I want to share a little bit of my religious side:
I watched the episode in ABS-CBN last night about Pope John Paul II and how he touched people to be with God, I am a fan of Pope John Paul II and I do believe he symbolizes Holiness, that I can say he is Jesus Christ Personified, I was inspired to spread the good news to the people that it is never too late to be with God and to live life with the accordance of the Lord.
I have to be honest, in my past, I am not a believer of Christ, I am not a believer of The Holy Bible, I reject all religious teaching and I hate Priest Preaching, but I change because the road that I was following is dark and leads me to nothing but hatred, anger and petty bickering. My mother used to say " Son, We all get tired of doing the same things again, that is why we live because we need to learn from our past". She was right, I got tired of being evil and renewed my faith, I joined a group named Bukas Loob sa Diyos Covenant Community and there I felt the hard ice melt into water, I was cleansed, my stone heart broke and gave me new views in life, I was saved.
I met different people in the community, rich or poor they are treated equally. This is a community that gave meaning to my religious life, a community that gave me another walk with my father, from all the past and bitter experiences which turned into a relationship full of care, love and comfort and a community which defines who I am now.
I am a late bloomer when it comes to appreciating Pope John Paul II achievements, given I was not a believer before, now I am inspired by his service to God.
" Until God puts me to sleep, I will serve him "
Thank You Lord

I hate the feeling of being infatuated to someone, even if I knew that person is just playing games with me. I constantly fall for the same mistake, twice? thrice? gosh, I can't blame the God given heart I have.. It sucks to be felt used after a long time of being with that person, you can never say if they have a good intention towards you, or is it just for beneficiary purposes. I never expected for someone to be so charming, with oozing persona yet a tremendous exploiter... I thank God he brought me back to my senses and lost all this feelings towards this person, who is unworthy to be treated good.. I wish you a better life and more useful person to use to get your means.... ^_^ I wish you luck..
