Publisher's summary

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 give him grief for his compulsive list making, the Inn BoonsBoro is about to open right on schedule. The only thing Owen didn’t plan for was Avery MacTavish....

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….

Critic reviews

“No one writes relationships as well as Ms. Roberts, with the subtleties and quirkiness of the give-and-take of friendship and romance.” ( Fresh Fiction)

surprisingly Romantic

I had tears for the ghosts interaction with each person! marvelous narrator! Looking forward to the next!

Last Boyfriend

I love the second book in this series ~ Avery’s story was great more twist and turns… but I love the family’s part on this story… Another great trilogy Nora!

Each of the Characters Make the Story

Nora has the most wonderful way of slowly, just in time, developing the characters; to let their strengths and weaknesses come alive where the others can help them grow. They all grow together. “Life is relationship, all else is byline.”

Wonderful continuation

Loved Book 1 and this book 2. . Im excited to listen to Book 3 now!

Loved it!

I have read this more than once and enjoyed it each time. The audio made me like it even more. The characters just bloomed into life.

Book 2 is even better than Book 1

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did not expect to laugh so much. I had laugh out loud moments.

Any additional comments?

I listened to the first book in the Trilogy and loved it but this one is even better, which really shocked me. Usually the first in a series is always the best. Can't wait to listen to the last book.

Loved the narrator!

This was a sweet uncomplicated love story. The characters were genuine and didn't need drama.

Have you listened to any of MacLeod Andrews’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

wonderful

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes but I couldn't

Averys book

So in book one, the next always, we met Clare and Avery. In the first book, Clare got her happily every after ending and now its time for Avery's, Still some continuing character development with the main characters, getting to know Lizzy the ghost a little more and really digging deep into Avery and Owen's character and possible love connection. Like book one, Mr. Andrews continues to narrate and its almost like its not another book, but another part 3 to the first book. Enjoy!
