If you haven't lived under a rock, then I'm sure you've seen the promos for an upcoming movie called Safe Haven. It is scheduled to be released in theaters 2/14/13. The movie is based upon a book by Nicholas Sparks.
I'm giving away a copy of the book.
Blurb for Safe Haven:
When a mysterious young woman named Katie appears in the small North Carolina
town of Southport, her sudden arrival raises questions about her past. Beautiful
yet self-effacing, Katie seems determined to avoid forming personal ties until a
series of events draws her into two reluctant relationships: one with Alex, a
widowed store owner with a kind heart and two young children; and another with
her plainspoken single neighbor, Jo. Despite her reservations, Katie slowly
begins to let down her guard, putting down roots in the close-knit community and
becoming increasingly attached to Alex and his family.
But even as Katie begins to fall in love, she struggles with the dark secret that still haunts and terrifies her . . . a past that set her on a fearful, shattering journey across the country, to the sheltered oasis of Southport. With Jo's empathic and stubborn support, Katie eventually realizes that she must choose between a life of transient safety and one of riskier rewards . . . and that in the darkest hour, love is the only true safe haven.

There are a lot of books I think would be great movies such as Cry No More by Linda Howard.
Victoria Thompson writes a series of books she calls Gaslight Mysteries. So far there are 15 books in the series and anyone would make a terrific film. The setting is NYC in the early 20th century. The characters are a mid-wife, Sarah Brandt, from a well-to-do family and Detective Sergeant Frank Malloy of the NYPD. Each book deals with a different crime, usually a murder.
I think it would be great if Nalini Singh's Psy-Changeling series were made into a series.
I would be curious to see The Witness by Nora Roberts on film, and the Edilean books by Jude Deveraux. The town seems so interesting.
BDB series by JR Ward
Love Nicholas' books and movies.
