When U.S. Marine Logan Thibault is on his third Iraq duty, he finds the picture of a smiling girl in the dirt. On the back is a simple message "Keep Safe! E.". Thibault decides to pick it up and try to give it back to it's owner. He puts the picture on a board at the entrance of the computer center, where he's sure the owner will see it and claim it. After a about a week, Thibault notices that the picture is still there. On a whim, he decides to pick up the picture and keep it. It's not until a few things happen and his life is spared, that his friend, Victor, points out that Thibault's luck has improved since he has gotten the picture. Thibault decides to keep the picture for good luck.
After Thibault returns home, he decides to go and search for the girl in the picture. There are very few clues in the picture, but he eventually finds her. Not telling her about the picture, he applies for a job with Elizabeth, who is not only a teacher, but she also helps her grandmother with their dog kennel. Thibault also learns that not only has she been married before, but she also has a son. Will Thibault be able to tell Elizabeth about the picture or will he even be able to deal with all that Elizabeth has on her plate?
The Lucky One is a breezy book, to say the least. I've read a few of Nicholas Sparks' novels before, because my sister is a huge fan. To me, his books are too predictable, and that makes them boring to me. This one had such potential going in to it, but I could guess just about everything that happened. Now, I'm not saying this is a bad book, because it's not and it did have me drawn it, I just like books that have twists that you can't predict. Although, if you're a Nicholas Sparks fan, than I'm sure you'll love this one.
