The Perfect Hope

This is the third book in Nora Roberts' Inn Boonsboro trilogy. I read it in roughly 2 days, maybe 3. It's not a challenging read, but it's an enjoyable one.

Hope is the innkeeper at the Inn Boonsboro. Her friends Clair and Avery got their Montgomery brothers in book one and two, so Hope gets hers in book three. Not a surprise - I believe in my post about book two I said I knew what book three would be about. I was right. But that didn't take away from my enjoyment.

I think what I like most about Nora is her characters. Yes, they're all beautiful and handsome and well-built, but if you look past that you see that they are real people. They have flaws. They argue. They swear, even use the f-bomb. The children - there are 3 little boys in this trilogy - are wild and cute and funny and normal.

Is Nora a great writer, a Hemingway? No, but she is a writer who writes people that the average person can relate to, and like. And I like that.

I also really want to spend a weekend at Inn Boonsboro... I may just have to check out the website.
