About this listen
In the enduringly popular style of his previous works, including The Notebook and See Me, Nicholas Sparks introduces us to the soon-to-be-entwined lives of four unsuspecting characters, and ensnares us with his gift for creating truly emotive stories.
Audie Award Finalist, Romance, 2013
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 and is 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. The new love story from the multi-million-copy bestselling author of The Notebook, The Lucky One and The Best of Me. Nicholas Sparks is one of the world's most beloved authors.

Sooo lovely book!
What made the experience of listening to The Longest Ride the most enjoyable?
Story, narrating, atmosphere, passion, love... All of it mixed together made this audiobook special. Great idea to give it to two narrators...although four would be even better.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Longest Ride?
The book is memorable all through. It is difficult not to pass any spoilers.
Which character – as performed by January LaVoy and Ron McLarty – was your favourite?
I just loved the old man.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Quite a few.
Any additional comments?
Recommended for anybody, who likes nicely flowing, non-violent memoir-like stories and who does not mind a bit of romance intertwined. Although the final twist was a bit predictable, it is actually what the reader/listener wishes for an end. I am happy I convinced myself to purchase this audiobook.

One of the best audiobooks ever!
Everything about this book was absolutely awesome! The narration was superb, the storyline amazing, the characters and storytelling fantastic. I have read each and every one of Nicholas Sparks books and am amazed at the extremes in quality and brilliance they offer up. At the amazing end is most definitely “the longest ride”.

An Easy Listen
A nice easy listen. I'd seen the film so I knew what happened, but I still enjoyed listening to the audio book.
