It's tough to beat the New Testament. It's the true story of a man who willingly suffered torture and death on a cross so that all the sins of the world would be forgiven and the sinners might have a chance to go to Heaven. It's a great read. You can get the book at any bookstore or hear about it in any Christian church.

The Notebook but since you're over Nick Sparks, try the English Patient by Michael Ondaatje. Read the book - if you've already seen the movie, the book will be better!

Oh man! When I saw your question I immediately thought: DUH "The Notebook."
Try "Plato's Symposium" it's short, but it's worth the time. It is an amazing read (all of Plato's works seem to be). The Symposium involves 7 speeches made at a dinner party about love. Watch for Aristophanes' speech- it is by far the best. It is an amazing story about finding your other half.
The Symposium begins as follows:
"Aristodemus meeting Socrates in holiday attire, is invited by him to a
banquet at the house of Agathon, who had been sacrificing in thanksgiving
for his tragic victory on the day previous. But no sooner has he entered
the house than he finds that he is alone; Socrates has stayed behind in a
fit of abstraction, and does not appear until the banquet is half over. On
his appearing he and the host jest a little; the question is then asked by
Pausanias, one of the guests, 'What shall they do about drinking? as they
had been all well drunk on the day before, and drinking on two successive
days is such a bad thing.' This is confirmed by the authority of
Eryximachus the physician, who further proposes that instead of listening
to the flute-girl and her 'noise' they shall make speeches in honour of
love, one after another, going from left to right in the order in which
they are reclining at the table. All of them agree to this proposal, and
Phaedrus, who is the 'father' of the idea, which he has previously
communicated to Eryximachus, begins as follows:--"

Well if you want good recommendations you should go to amazon.com, the amazon users reviewers there are truthful about what romantic book is the best. I like reading light hearted contemparary romance, so my recommendations to you would be something by Rachel Gibson or 'Bet Me' by Jennifer Crusie.
