Safe Haven (2013)

Some might say Nicholas Sparks is running out of ideas. That's because he is. If you've read or seen any Sparks novel-turned-movie, then you've basically see this film as well.

Your typical Nicholas Sparks plot line, but with a CSI-esque thriller twist. Katie (Julianne Hough) is running away from her haunting past and finds refuge in the small tourist stopover town of Southport. Her sudden arrival catches the attention of the residents of the small town and raises suspicions about her true motives. Although she is closed off, she ultimately begins relationships with two other people: Alex (Josh Duhamel), the widowed owner of the local store, and her neighbour Jo (Colbie Smulders), who acts like a sister as well as a friend. Katie slowly, but surely, begins to fall in love with Alex and bonds with his two children. But her past still haunts her and prevents her from letting her guard down completely.
