The Next Always
by T Akery December 5th, 2011 | New Releases
The Next Always is the first book in the newest trilogy by Nora Roberts. This book series is called the Inn BoonsBoro Trilogy.
It is about Clare, a bookseller, who is rediscovering her life after her husband's death. She isn't alone. She also has three sons to take care of.
It is also about Beckett Montgomery. He is the architect of an inn that is undergoing vast renovations. Along with his brothers and mother who inhabit the inn, there is a ghost. He also has a crush on Clare.
As expected, this is another love story by Nora Roberts.
