The Next Always Nora Roberts

Publisher Marketing:#1 "New York Times" bestselling author Nora Roberts introduces you to the Montgomery brothers Beckett, Ryder, and Owen as they bring an intimate bed-and-breakfast to life in their hometown. The historic hotel in Boonsboro has endured war and peace, the changing of hands, and even rumored hauntings. Now it s getting a major face-lift from the Montgomery brothers and their eccentric mother. As the architect in the family, Beckett s social life consists mostly of talking shop over pizza and beer. But there s another project he s got his eye on: the girl he s been waiting to kiss since he was sixteen. After losing her husband and returning to her hometown, Clare Brewster soon settles into her life as the mother of three young sons while running the town s bookstore. Though busy and with little time for romance, Clare is drawn across the street by Beckett s transformation of the old inn, wanting to take a closer look at both the building and the man behind it. With the grand opening inching closer, Beckett is happy to give Clare a private tour one room at a time, in between blueprint meetings and kindergarten pickups. It s no first date, but these stolen moments are the beginning of something that could arouse the secret yearning that resides in Clare s independent heart and open the door to the extraordinary adventure of what comes next " Review Citations: Publishers Weekly 09/19/2011 (EAN 9780425243213, Paperback) Library Journal 10/15/2011 pg. 70 (EAN 9780425243213, Paperback) Romantic Times 11/01/2011 pg. 82 (EAN 9780425243213, Paperback) Booklist 10/15/2011 pg. 25 (EAN 9780425243213, Paperback) - *Starred Review Kirkus Reviews 10/15/2011 (EAN 9780425243213, Paperback) Contributor Bio:  Roberts, Nora Nora Roberts is a bestselling author of more than 209 romance novels.
