You may not accept my point of view on this review for this book. I have to confess that I haven't read the whole series, but this book made me want to start from scratch.
In short, the main story line is about the relationship between Hope and Ryder. Ryder, the Boonsboro Inn's owner's son, is seen by Hope Montgomery Beaumont as shy, finds it difficult to talk to strangers, and reserved. Hope (working in the Inn as a Inn Keeper) falls in love with his looks. Ryder this Hope is arrogant but he loves her more than anything. Stories in this book goes through their relationship in Boonsboro Inn, Ryder and Hope discovering each other's personality and adjusting to each other, story of the "romeo and juliet" type relationship between the ghosts Billy (the ghost of the inn and Ryder's ancestor) and Eliza (the ghost of the Inn and Hope's ancestor), Jonathan's (Hope's Ex-Lover) comeback to the Boonsboro Inn to take Hope back, and relationship between Hope and her best friends Clare and Avery.
This book, although I haven't read the previous ones, showed the ups and downs in relationships even if there's a difference in personal status. It showed romance from many different point of views and how far people would go for their love. Ryder shows great quality of a relationship by being the protector and provider for his woman. This book also showed the importance of friends and family support and how its ups and downs.
