Product Description The Montgomery brothers and their eccentric mother are breathing new life into the town of Boonsboro, Maryland, by restoring its historic hotel. And theyre finding their own lives revamped by love. This is Ryders story... Ryder is the hardest Montgomery brother to figure out with a tough-as-nails outside and possibly nothing too soft underneath. Hes surly and unsociable, but when he straps on a tool belt, no woman can resist his sexy swagger. Except apparently Hope Beaumont, the innkeeper of his own Inn BoonsBoro. And though the Inn is running smoothly, thanks to Hopes experience and unerring instincts, her big-city past is about to make an unwelcome and embarrassing appearance. Seeing Hope vulnerable stirs up Ryders emotions and makes him realize that while Hope may not be perfect, she just might be perfect for him...
