Safe Haven on Blu-ray and DVD - The Romance of Nicholas Sparks PLUS Suspense!

Save Haven is now available on Blu-ray and DVD.  If you're a person, like me, who never had an interest in seeing a Nicholas Sparks film.....this one may change your mind.

Josh Duhamel and Julianne Hough star in this spellbinding romantic drama based on the novel by best-selling author Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook). When a mysterious, beautiful woman named Katie (Hough), moves to Southport, North Carolina, she sparks the interest of the locals, especially Alex (Duhamel), a handsome widower. Although she is attracted to Alex, Katie is reluctant to trust him – that is, until a new friend (Cobie Smulders) convinces her to give Alex a chance. But before long, a dark secret from Katie’s past threatens her happiness in this thrilling romance directed by Lasse Hallström (Dear John).

Safe Haven does have the romance popular with Nicholas Sparks fan, but the added element of suspense makes this one a good watch for everyone.  Even my action-movie-oriented husband liked this one.  Not to mention that both Josh and Julianne do a great job bringing the Sparks characters to life.  David Lyons deserves a special shout out for making the suspense as riveting as it is.
