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….

Nora Roberts Romance

A good book

Since I haven't listened to or read the first book, it took me a bit to get into the story. It started slow for me. But it picked up and I truly enjoyed the storyline and HEA. I'll consider listening to book 1 and 3 in the future. I picked this one up during Audible's 3 books for 2 credits specials.

MacLeod Andrews did a good job. There were times it felt like a 10 yr old was responding/talking vs grown men or women. That maybe the difficulty of emotional exchanges in multiple voices. Overall I enjoyed his voice. It's soothing.

Love her stories! The narrator is quite strong overall a great summer read all books from this trilogy 3!!!

Nora Roberts nailed this series kept me riveted through the whole trilogy! It is a great way to weather the Corona virus quarantine!!!

Perfect

the narrator is absolutely wonderful. His voice and this story is like visiting with friends you love while having coffee and cake! This is a trilogy and each story is exceptional. I have listened to them so many times as it feels like "home".

Bravo!

I have only listened to the books in this series a million times! I love them! Nora please give us another installment!

Poorly told

Loved the story but the narrators timing is way off and he doesn’t have enough feeling in it. Also felt it would be better with a female

Love story and narration

I know everyone is different and a lot of people don’t like the narration but I love it. This is my favorite series.

Last Boyfriend

This had humor love ❤️ and excitement. Thank you Nora Roberts for all your wonderful books.

Owen and Avery a great pair

As complete opposites, the relationship between Avery and Owen provides an interesting plot line as we learn more about Avery's past and why she's so driven. The narrator improved slightly, losing the grating child voices and picking up the pace, so overall it was a very nice "read".

Mr. Andrews brings this trilogy to life. I love Nora’s stories and he does a GREAT job performing them! Thank you!!!
