In the late 1930s, wealthy seventeen year-old Allie Hamilton is spending summer vacation in Seabrook. Local worker Noah Calhoun meets Allie at a carnival and they soon fall in love with each other. One day, Noah brings Allie to an ancient house that he dreams of buying and restoring and they attempt to make love but get interrupted by their friend.

Noah writes 365 letters (A Year) to Allie, but her mother Anne Hamilton does not deliver them to her daughter. Three years later, the United States joins the World War II and Noah and his best friend Fin enlist in the army, and Allie works as an army nurse. She meets injured soldier Lon Hammond in the hospital. After the war, they meet each other again going on dates and then, Lon, who is wealthy and handsome, proposes. Meanwhile Noah buys and restores the old house and many people want to buy it. When Allie accidentally sees the photo of Noah and his house in a newspaper, she feels divided between her first love and her commitment with Lon. Meanwhile Duke stops reading to the old lady since his children are visiting him in the nursing home. 当你找不着北时。如果爱情不能圆满，只能说明爱的不够。。如果 我爱你。为爱而奋斗。your mother is my home。真爱可造出奇迹。爱情是文字最美的结局。这就是我要的爱情。。恋恋笔记本。很俗套的故事。 一个浸润着鲜红与纯白的爱情故事，写在一本洒满昏黄的笔记本上，被一位老先生(詹姆斯·加纳 饰)，一遍一遍的讲述。老太太(吉娜·罗兰兹 饰)总是静静的听着，好奇的追问结果。在一家疗养院，这样不变的场景每天都会上演。 笔记本上，秀美的字迹，记载着发生在那个夏天的爱情。艾莉(瑞秋·麦克亚当斯 饰)是富有人家的千金，她随家人来到小镇避暑。在一个充满梦幻的游乐场，邂逅了诺亚(瑞恩·高斯林 饰)。诺亚没有钱，却活的很快乐。艾莉在他那学会了自由，得到了欢笑，两人很快热恋起来。然而在艾莉父母的阻挠下，相爱的两个人，就被分开在夏天结束的那一刻。随着诺亚的365封信被偷偷藏起，艾莉在7年后终于放弃了等待。就在她要步入教堂的前一天，突然在报纸上看到了诺亚曾许诺给自己建造的白色房子。一切记忆，全部苏醒…… 也许，应该苏醒的，不是故事中的，而是听故事的人。
