1. In "The Choice", where was Gabby Holland's hometown?

Answer: Savannah

Gabby was from Savannah. Her mother was a true southern belle. She had hopes of red-headed Gabby being a true Southern lady, just like Gabby's three blonde sisters. But in her eyes, Gabby chose her career as a main priority.
2. What was Gabby's occupation in "The Choice"?

Answer: Physician's Assistant

Gabby was a Physician's Assistant (PA). She completed her undergraduate degree at UNC then went to Eastern Virginia to complete her PA training. The story began with her working for a pediatric group.
3. Where did Gabby meet Kevin in "The Choice"?

Answer: UNC

Gabby began dating Kevin in their senior year at UNC. She went on to Eastern Virginia in Norfolk to complete PA school. She and Kevin continued their relationship when he graduated, by commuting between Virginia and Beaufort on the weekends.
4. In "The Choice", what was the name of Gabby's dog?

Answer: Molly

Molly was a pure-bred collie. Gabby was irritated at her neighbor before she officially even met him because she assumed his dog caused Molly to be pregnant. She met her neighbor, Travis, by storming through his hedges, ranting and raving about all of life's woes, particularly Molly's predicament.
5. Who was the town's vet in Nicholas Sparks' "The Choice"?

Answer: Travis

Travis Parker was Gabby's neighbor and also the town veterinarian. After accusing his dog of fathering her dog's puppies, she did not listen to any explanation he may have. She took Molly in for a check-up upon Travis's suggestion. This is when she found out he was a vet and that his dog was neutered.
6. In "The Choice", of Travis's friends which couple had blonde hair?

Answer: Megan and Joe

Travis's sister Stephanie taught Gabby to use memory techniques to remember the three couples at their first get-together. For Megan and Joe, Gabby was to picture in her mind a blonde GI Joe fighting a megalodon.
7. What were the Parker's children's names in "The Choice" by Nicholas Sparks?

Answer: Christine and Lisa

Christine was eight and wanted bows in her hair. She liked things neat and tidy. Lisa was six with red hair like her mommy.
8. In "The Choice", what show did Gabby and Travis see in Raleigh prior to the accident?

Answer: David Copperfield

Travis and Gabby were involved in a car accident on the way back from a David Copperfield show in Raleigh. It was a rainy night and although close to home, Travis was hit going through an intersection. Both were taken to the hospital but Gabby lapsed into a coma. The story painted a vivid picture of how guilt-ridden Travis was and, further, of the weight of his decisions.
9. What was the name of the nurse who always talked to Gabby as if she were coherent and able to carry on a conversation, in Nicholas Sparks' "The Choice"?

Answer: Gretchen

Gretchen was very kind to Travis and a model nurse when interacting with comatose patients. Knowing Gabby prior to the accident, she told him she had always envied his and Gabby's relationship.
10. In "The Choice", after Travis chose to keep Gabby alive and move her into a nursing home, what was her fate at the end of the story?

Answer: She awoke and went home

Prior to the accident, Gabby told Travis about a couple she met during her PA work. Their names were Kenneth and Eleanor Baker. Eleanor was vibrantly healthy until she contracted viral meningitis and went into a coma. Even though the couple had children, Kenneth simply quit living and became resentful of Eleanor's long-term sickness. If that same situation was ever upon Gabby and Travis, she made him promise to not let her live in that state.

But Travis never gave up on life and chose to keep her alive.
