An affirming and suspenseful story about a young woman’s struggle to love again, Safe Haven is based on the novel from Nicholas Sparks, the best-selling author behind the hit films The Notebook and Dear John.
When a mysterious young woman arrives in a small North Carolina town, her reluctance to join the tight knit community raises questions about her past. Slowly, she begins putting down roots, and gains the courage to start a relationship with Alex, a widowed store owner with two young children. But dark secrets intrude on her new life with such terror that she is forced to rediscover the meaning of sacrifice and rely on the power of love in this deeply moving romantic thriller.
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.
Safe Haven stars Josh Duhamel and Julianne Hough as is in theaters February 8, 2013

First time trying punch tab:
I dislike having to step thru subscribing in order for a form (at the last step) to inform me what I knew, that I already subscribe or follow. Do you think that is why I get multiple copies even when I only have one identity, one email address that I use?
Not sure if I got credit for what I qualified for, not sure how many total entries there were with this method. Practice probably will make it more familiar but there was no big picture of what entries I had completed
Lagean (Gena) says
Definitely interests me! I love Nicholas Sparks.
