Abstract: Owen is the organizer of the Montgomery clan, running the family's construction business with an iron fist-and an even less flexible spreadsheet. And though his brothers bust on his compulsive list-making, the Inn BoonsBoro is about to open right on schedule. The only thing Owen didn't plan for was Avery McTavish... Avery's popular pizza place is right across the street from the inn, giving her a first-hand look at its amazing renovation-and a newfound appreciation for Owen. Since he was her first boyfriend when they were kids, Owen has never been far from Avery's thoughts. But the attraction she's feeling for him now is far from innocent. As Avery and Owen cautiously take their relationship to another level, the opening of the inn gives the whole town of Boonsboro a reason to celebrate. But Owen's hard work has only begun. Getting Avery to let down her guard is going to take longer than he expected-and so will getting her to realize that her first boyfriend is going to be her last...

Abstract: È stata una delle più strazianti immagini del Ventesimo secolo: due ragazzini, due principi, che seguono il feretro della madre sotto gli occhi addolorati e inorriditi del mondo intero. Mentre si celebrava il funerale di Diana, principessa del Galles, miliardi di persone si chiedevano quali pensieri affollassero la mente dei principi, quali emozioni passassero per i loro cuori, e come si sarebbero dipanate le loro vite da quel momento in poi. Finalmente Harry racconta la sua storia. Con la sua cruda e implacabile onestà, "Spare. Il minore" è una pubblicazione epocale. Le sue pagine, dense di analisi e rivelazioni, sono frutto di un profondo esame di sé e della consapevolezza - conquistata a caro prezzo - che l'amore vince sempre sul lutto.
