The Longest Ride


THE LONGEST RIDE
Nicholas Sparks

Published by Hachette New Zealand - $24.99 RRP

The bestselling love story behind the sure-fire Hollywood blockbuster, set to hit NZ cinemas in April 2015.

Two couples. Two love stories. One epic tale.

Ninety-one-year-old Ira Levinson is in trouble. Struggling to stay conscious after a car crash, with his mind fading, an image of his adored and long-dead wife Ruth appears. Urging him to hang on, she lovingly recounts the joys and sorrows of their life together - how they met, the dark days of WWII and its unrelenting effect on their families.

A few miles away, college student Sophia Danko's life is about to change. Recovering from a break-up, she meets the young, rugged Luke. Thrown into a world far removed from her privileged school life, Sophia sees a new and tantalising future for herself, but Luke is keeping a secret that could destroy it all. Ira and Ruth. Sophia and Luke. Two couples, separated by years and experience, whose lives are about to converge in the most unexpected and shocking of ways.
