About this ebook

NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan begins her binge-worthy Montgomery Ink series with a bachelor ready to finally settle down and the one woman he shouldn’t have.

One look at the woman who comes in for new ink and Austin Montgomery knows she’s the one for him. The problem: she can’t stand him. Now he’ll have to be his most charming and brooding if he has any chance of changing her mind…and claiming her heart.

Sierra Elder has reasons for keeping away and secrets close to her heart. An accident took her first love and scarred more than her soul in the process. Now the inked man with a wicked grin is starting to melt the ice she’s built to keep her safe, but the danger isn’t only from what she feels.

Some secrets were never meant to be kept and when mistakes from both of their pasts come knocking, they’ll have to trust each other, even if it could hurt them both in the process.

Ratings and reviews

this book went from 100 to zero quick. for starters the author tried tackling too many things at once and failed miserably. I have no idea why she felt the need to include the cousin and his annoying immature wife. as for introducing the child and not actually showing the interactions or difficulties thereof between him and his child I found that stupid. there was just too many characters who did not add value to this story. It also got confusing because I couldn't decided whether the story was about Austin and Sierra or the cousin and his annoying wife or etc. I doubt I'll be reading this author again

Seems to be a part of a larger world involving the Montgomery family. Not terribly deep but not a bad read. There are series available that are better where I would rather spend money. Although it is a pleasant story, I will not be purchasing any more from the series.

A little jumpy, and there were some grammatical and machanical errors that made me have to reread parts. But other than that, I really like the Montgomery family.

About the author

 New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan never thought she’d be a writer. Not really. No, she loved math and science and even went on to graduate school in chemistry. Yes, she read as a kid and devoured teen fiction and Harry Potter, but it wasn’t until someone handed her a romance book in her late teens that she realized that there was something out there just for her. When another author suggested she use the voices in her head for good and not evil, The Redwood Pack and all her other stories were born.

Carrie Ann is a bestselling author of over twenty novels and novellas and has so much more on her mind (and on her spreadsheets *grins*) that she isn’t planning on giving up her dream anytime soon.
