Rodney is a character featured in True Believer as a longtime friend of Lexie that has been after her for years until Jeremy came along. Doris suggests that Jeremy try to write about the journal for a new column. Doris is the town psychic and has the specialty of predicting the sex of a newborn baby, and records it all in her book. Doris tries to help Jeremy with this problem by giving him her book. This adds to the stress of buying a new house for his new family and having a child on the way. When Jeremy and Lexie return to Boone Creek, Jeremy finds himself unable to find the inspiration to write any new columns for his magazine. The only people that know of the pregnancy are Jeremy's long time best friend Alvin, and Lexie's grandmother, Doris. Lexie is making Jeremy keep the baby a secret from his family and friends and the residents of Boone Creek until after the wedding, because she doesn't want people to get the wrong impression of why he and Lexie have decided to get married after only a few weeks of knowing each other.

In New York City Lexie and Jeremy are preparing to move Jeremy to their future home, Boone Creek. It was then that Sparks got the idea to write At First Sight as its predecessor.Īt First Sight begins after Jeremy's proposal.

Sparks’s editor thought this was too long for an epilogue and damaged the effect of True Believer. At First Sight was originally the result of a 45-page epilogue in True Believer. Set in North Carolina, At First Sight is the sequel to Sparks's previous book, True Believer, written in the same year. At First Sight is a 2005 romance novel by Nicholas Sparks.
