The Last Boyfriend / Nora Roberts / 336 pages

Another satisfying Nora Roberts romance.  I started with the second in the series (Boonsboro series).  Owen Montgomery and Avery get together in this book.  They had a "thing" in kindergarten and apparently carried the torch for each other over the next 25 years. 
     Other characters are revisited and continued, but this book is about Avery and Owen.  Nora Roberts' books are predictable, but satisfying.  Relationships heat up near the middle, or in this case, the first hot scene is disc 5.  She seems to spend an increasing amount of time describing the careers and technical details of the characters professions.  (I hope she never does one about a mortician.  TMI!) 
     Yes, the book was good enough that I am already listening to book 1 about Beckett and Claire.  Now I'll know the back story of how they got together and I'll find out more about the ghost.  Might as well read these now as book 3 is on order and there is a reserve list.
