Publisher's summary

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…

Perfect Ending!

I enjoyed all three stories in Nora's trilogy. This one was by far the best! The mystery of the lost/ghost lovers was solved in a very satisfying way. Hope and Ryder were a fun couple to watch in action. Although I would have liked a lil more story on the ex-boyfriend, that was not resolved to my satisfaction. These were fun, light listening to stories, something to occupy the mind, remove you from the daily stresses of life.

Loved It

I absolutely loved it--wish she had introduced a cousin or other relative to continue the series. I most definitely will listen again. Good story with a little suspense!!

I think the narrator has become one of the favorite readers of women's romance books. You could hear the difference in the voices of the characters.

Perfect! Loved It.

Ryder and Hope's story was the perfect ending to the trilogy. Figuring out how everything from the first book until now played a part in all their lives. Not sure exactly what to say. Ms. Roberts out did herself with Hope and Ryder as well as with the entire Montgomery family and the people of Boonsboro. Everyday hard working people trying to make it and along the way find long ago past family, friends and additional ties. Small town life at its best.

Realistic and Lovely Romance.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Getting to know each one of the characters through book 1 to the third and final book in the trilogy. The characters were very realistic from their temperaments and characteristics to the way that they interacted with each other as a big intermixed family. It had just enough drama mix in with the romance to be entertaining and funny. overall it's a really great read or less than if you're doing Audible. I was able to listen to all three books over a period of three weeks

Not as good as the first two

Where does The Perfect Hope rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I enjoy Nora Roberts but this is not her best. I didn't connect to Hope as much as the two other female characters in books 1 & 2.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Perfect Hope?

When Rylie drives down to the city and sorts out the ex'es family.

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

Not really!
