Publisher's summary

The historic hotel in BoonsBoro, Maryland, has endured war and peace, changing hands, even rumored hauntings. Now it’s getting a major facelift from the Montgomery brothers and their eccentric mother. As the architect of 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 15....

For beeing abriged, it was great.

It had me listening to with non stop excitement. Normally I don't care for books that are abriged, but with this one I didn't even notice it. I hope they get unabriged soon.

Enjoyed her “feel good” novels!

Nora Roberts did it again. She never fails. It is so subtle, witty, funny & touching. I love when she writes about close-knot families & good friends from childhood. These topics are close to my heart. I’ve read her trilogies in the past & they are favorites of mine. Can’t wait to get hold of book 2 of Inn BoobsBoro Trilogy, where the 2 brothers & their love interests are introduced. More power to Nora Roberts.

The narration killed a really good book!

The story was wonderful. I went to the store and actually bought the book for a really good read. Only got a chapter into the audible version, and could NOT get passed the narration. Please no more MacLeod Andrews!

Need a new narrator

36 minutes in and I had to stop. I’m returning this book, the narrator is so bad. The inflections are all in the wrong place and he needs to swallow the spit in his mouth or something. I have no idea what was happening because I couldn’t follow along with distracting narration.
I love Nora Roberts and I always have an audiobook on…in the car, doing house work, before I go to bed. This is only the second book I have ever stopped listening to…because of bad narration. I can usually get past it. It sucks, because I was excited about this story line. I will have to read the paper copy of it instead.

Good story, bad narrator

I enjoyed the story, but this narrator has one decent female voice; all of the others sounded like old hags or drag queens.
