Publisher's summary

The Montgomery Ink saga from New York Times best-selling author Carrie Ann Ryan continues with a steamy new series.

Years ago, Annabelle Montgomery married not for love but for a promise of hope. When she lost him weeks later, she told herself she never needed those sentiments again. Only when she discovers years later that her new neighbor is her late husband’s brother, Annabelle finds she can’t quite shake the emotions she’s long since buried.

Jacob Queen vowed he’d never set eyes on Annabelle again. When they’re forced into each other’s lives once more, they realize that no matter how far they run, no distance can keep them apart forever. More than ghosts lay between them, and when they finally give in to temptation, walking away whole may no longer be an option.

Welcome to Fort Collins, Montgomery Style!

I have loved getting to meet the Montgomery families, and the Fort Collins clan is a great addition. The first book from the new series is an enemy-to-lover tale and is Annabelle and Jacob's story. Jacob's family absolutely adores Annabelle but Jacob's dislike for Annabelle has kept him away from his parents until it's time to come home and take care of his family. They have a complicated history and to make matters, Jacob and Annabelle end up living next door to each other. The tension between these two is palpable and believable and when they get together they are fire. In the midst of this budding relationship, Annabelle works for the family business along with her brothers and sister. There is tension there as her father is having difficulty giving up control and feels he needs to keep up with the other thriving Montgomery businesses. I enjoyed seeing Jacob and Annabelle overcome the challenges they faced on all fronts.

As this is the start of a new series there are some interesting family members that I look forward to discovering more of their story. The audio included a clip titled Broken which is Eliza's story and I can't wait to hear her journey.

Narration by Emma Wilder and Aaron Shedlock was fantastic. Not new to me but this was my first time hearing them together. They definitely brought heat and a bit of spice to their narration.

loved it

Omg what a amazing read. I so didn't want it to end. I loved reading about Annabelle and Jacob and the way their story unfolded. Carrie Ann never disappoints a reader with her writing. The narrators are absolutely enjoyable to listen to. I love this new book and Fort Collins family.

Great story

I listened to this one on audio. I loved this story of the Montgomery's so much. This story of Annabelle and how she fell in love with the love of her life. It brought all the feels. The dual narration was great. So many feels and just a really enjoyable story.

Great story!!

This book was a highly emotional book for all of the characters on different levels. while having all of the feels that go along with this type of read. Annabelle and Jacob have rocky relationship to start due to their past history with each other and both find themselves shocked to be next door neighbors. Their paths continually cross since Annabelle has a relationship with Jacob's parents that has been kept up for many years since Annabelle married Jacob's deceased brother in a last wish type of action. Jacob has had built up misdirected resentment toward Annabelle for they way that she handled her grief for his brother as well as her desire to stay involved with his parents. Annabelle on the other hand does not know how to at first resolve the issues between herself on Jacob while trying to deal with internal family struggles between her parents and her coworker siblings in their family business.

Throughout this start to a new series, we are introduced to new characters and a peak into the dynamics between the characters. We also get to watch the growth of Annabelle and Jacob's characters as they grow from a friends with benefits type relationship after clearing the air between them. The pair together have amazing chemistry together that was palpable at times.

Overall, this was a good book that I enjoyed from the start. I also enjoyed the narration by Emma Wilder and Aaron Shedlock. The pair did a great job bringing this book to life. If you have been a fan of Montgomery's and their spin off series that you will not be disappointed in this book either.

Love the Montgomery’s

This is the first of the Fort Collins Montgomery’s we get to see Annabella and Jacob’s story.

Annabella works with her family that builds homes and she is the architect. Her family is very close and they work well together but find it a bit harder as of lately with their dad butting in on all of the upcoming projects.

That’s not the only issue she faces her new neighbor is Jacob Queen and he is not to fond of her for reasons she’s not exactly sure of but like anything else she’s determined to make the most of the situation. Unfortunately there is one little problem they both seem to find themselves attracted to each other no matter how much they deny it.

Overall, it’s a wonderful new story and you’ll get a HEA the author always gives us an amazing beautiful story. Looking forward to more Montgomery’s.

The narrators were a perfect choice for the story and brought it too life.

Enjoyable read!!

This is the first book in the Montgomery Ink: Fort Collins series. This also happens to be my first read by Carrie and I enjoyed it! Annabelle and Jacob’s story gave you all the feels. There’s definitely some history between them that caused tension, but in the end love conquers all. I love the Montgomery family dynamic. The narrators did a really good job. I’ll definitely be reading the rest of the series.
