The Lucky One is by Nicholas Sparks, an internationally bestselling American novelist and screenwriter. The story is about a US Marine, called Logan Thibault, who finds a photo of a smiling young woman during his third tour of duty in Iraq. As no one claims the photo, he keeps with him in his pocket. Soon he experiences a sudden streak of luck: winning poker games and surviving deadly combat that kills his buddies. This chain of events makes him believe that the smiling woman in the photo is his lucky charm.

Back home in Colorado from Iraq, Logan thinks that this woman in the photo might hold the key to his destiny, so he starts a journey across the country to find her. In North Carolina, he unexpectedly finds the woman whom he is waiting to meet-Beth, a divorced mother of a young son. Despite a growing attraction between them, Beth is struggling her own problems: her ex-husband won’t accept his relationship with her is over and he threatens anyone who gets too close to her.
