About this ebook

The Montgomery Ink saga from NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan continues with a friends to lovers romance that breaks all of their own rules.

Instead of walking away with a marriage proposal, Paige Montgomery ended up broken hearted and pregnant.

Now she has to figure out how to begin her life again alone.

She refuses to fall for another man, yet every time she sees Lee Grier, her traitorous heart aches for him. It doesn’t matter he’s her brother’s best friend and wants to be her rock in the storm. She knows she has to weather the oncoming pressures on her own.

When they can no longer fight the pull between them, they’ll have to remember that passion can only shelter them from reality for so long and letting themselves fall will be the hardest step yet.

While this is a standalone book with it's own HEA, it is part of the Montgomery world and is overrun with Montgomerys from all over Colorado, so if you haven't read any before, be prepared to be a little out of your depth. I loved that this story is completely believable in most ways. Relationships break down all the time with babies/children/pregnancies involved. People find themselves just evolving into a relationship from a completely different starting point with no clear idea of how they got there or what it means. This is exactly what happened with Lee and Paige. At the beginning they can tell themselves it just about support, but nobody really believes that. I really enjoy the realism in these books. There are no billionaires or heiresses, no multinational CEO's, just people living their lives as they can, which makes these stories incredibly relatable. I really enjoyed Lee and Paige's story, even though it didn't grab me as other Montgomery books have done. However, the twist and drama at the end felt out of place to me and it didn't feel like it added anything to the story.

Paige thought she had found her fairytale, but things come crashing down for her on the night she thinks her boyfriend is going to propose, but instead tells her is he moving away and hadn't factored her in his thoughts or plans. Soon after she learns that she is pregnant and has to figure out where to go from there. Lee has been an unofficial member of her family since he is her brother's best friend, and has always been there in the background. Things change for them when Paige finds herself wanting to exert more independence and has a hard time letting herself lean on her family, as she always has before, but does allow Lee in more as their friendship deepens. This is a "friends to lovers" romance and I loved how we followed along as their relationship deepened and changed. We get to spend time with some of the others from this series, but they are weaved in so naturally and you can still follow along even if you haven't already read their books(of which I've only read a few). Carrie Ann Ryan has a talent for telling stories in a way where you feel like these could be real characters, in real situations- it's always such a treat!

This is my favourite Montgomery Ink: Fort Collins SeriesThe Fort Collins Montgomerys book in the series. Paige and Lee had a bond that was in breakable. Their story is full love and heartbreaks. The light and in dark in their relationship was trying, but they grew stronger through it all. “I did my best not to only think of the darkness. And I remembered that within each dark moment, there was light. A light to remind us of what we were fighting for and what outshone that darkness.” The family unit of the Montgomery is still strong. About the book: The 4th stand alone romance in the Montgomery Ink: Fort Collins SeriesThe Fort Collins Montgomerys work hard and play harder. They know what they want and settling down isn’t it. They’re loud, a little broody, and will put their family above everything else, including their own needs. They’ve dealt with loss more than once, but when it hits again, this time cutting even deeper, these Montgomerys will have to face the fact that they’ll have to rely on others—and fall in love when they least expect it.Each book can be read as a standalone romance and is perfect for those wanting to laugh, cry, and swoon right along with the characters.
