Inn BoonsBoro Trilogy

 

I always say I read Nora Roberts books when I have nothing better to read or when I want something light to read when I want a break from historicals or fantasy books I usually read. Not that I don't enjoy them, I usually do, but sometimes they grow tiresom because most of her trilogies are similar, like the characters and plot.

 

So few months back I started reading "The Next Always" the first book in the Boonsboro trilogy. I really liked the characters and the book. There was also a supernatural element in the story as some of her books do. This time is a moody but benign ghost living at the inn which the Montgomery brothers are renovating.

 

Beckett Montgomery and his brothers begin renovations on the historic hotel in Boonsboro, Maryland. A second chance for the inn leads to a second chance for love.

 

 

I finished reading "The Last Boyfriend" last week and it was also a light entertaining read. I finished the book in two days. I enjoyed this one more, because there was a conclusion to the first book and another beginning for the main character in this book and a teaser for the third book.

 

"Owen is the organizer of the Montgomery clan, running the family’s construction business with an iron fist—and an even less flexible spreadsheet. And though his brothers bust on his compulsive list-making, the Inn BoonsBoro is about to open right on schedule. The only thing Owen didn’t plan for was Avery McTavish...

Avery’s popular pizza place is right across the street from the inn, giving her a first-hand look at its amazing renovation—and a newfound appreciation for Owen. Since he was her first boyfriend when they were kids, Owen has never been far from Avery’s thoughts. But the attraction she’s feeling for him now is far from innocent.

As Avery and Owen cautiously take their relationship to another level, the opening of the inn gives the whole town of Boonsboro a reason to celebrate. But Owen’s hard work has only begun. Getting Avery to let down her guard is going to take longer than he expected—and so will getting her to realize that her first boyfriend is going to be her last…" - Penguin Group

 

Yes. I'm really looking forward to the last installment of this trilogy "The Perfect Hope".  Since I can't imagine how Hope and Ryder will come together since half the time they are politely cold and stay out of each other's way most of the time.

Ryder is the hardest Montgomery brother to figure out—with a tough-as-nails outside and possibly nothing too soft underneath. He’s surly and unsociable, but when he straps on a tool belt, no woman can resist his sexy swagger. Except apparently Hope Beaumont, the innkeeper of his own Inn BoonsBoro…

As the former manager of a D.C. hotel, Hope is used to excitement and glamour, but that doesn’t mean she can’t appreciate the joys of small-town living. She’s where she wants to be—except for in her love life. Her only interaction with the opposite sex has been sparring with the infuriating Ryder, who always seems to get under her skin. Still, no one can deny the electricity that crackles between them…a spark that ignited with a New Year’s Eve kiss.

While the Inn is running smoothly, thanks to Hope’s experience and unerring instincts, her big-city past is about to make an unwelcome—and embarrassing—appearance. Seeing Hope vulnerable stirs up Ryder’s emotions and makes him realize that while Hope may not be perfect, she just might be perfect for him…
