"The Guardian"

Written By Nicholas Sparks

Julie Barenson's husband died leaving her the promise to watch over her and a dog named singer. Four years later, Julie finally starts to date again. She meets Richard, a handsome engineer who treats her like shes perfect. He even gives her a locket with her initials in it. But Julie soon realizes that her real love is her best friend Mike, also her husbands best friend. Singer loves Mike, But ever time Richard comes over Singer growls, hes ever bitten Richard once. Julie Breaks up with Richard and starts to see Mike. Everything seems to be fine, Mike and Julie are happy together. They don't fight much and Singer loves him. But then Richard starts to show up at every place they are, almost like hes planing it? Also someone keeps calling Julies house but never says anything. Who keeps calling? Is it just a coincidence that Richard seems to be everywhere they are? What will happen when Richard starts to see Julies friend Andrea? My favorite part of the book is when Mike and Julie get together because you now that he likes her from the start but your just waiting for her to realize she loves him.

My Rating: 8.5/10. I loved this book, it had a good story line and stayed with that storyline the whole time. It was also very interesting the whole way through. But i feel that sometimes they focused to much on events that werent really that important in some parts of the book.
