Restless Ink is LIVE

Restless Ink (Montgomery Ink: Colorado Springs Book 2) is now available in eBook, Paperback, and audio! I’m so excited about Dimitri and Thea’s romance. Happy Reading and yay for more INK!
The Montgomery Ink series continues with the so-called sensible sister and the one man she never should have fallen for.
For Thea Montgomery, baking isn’t only therapeutic, it’s also her dream job. She’s worked countless hours keeping her bakery afloat, and now that it’s where she wants it to be, she’s ready to expand and take the next step. When it comes to work and her family, she’s on top of her game. Her personal life, however, is a different story.
When Dimitri Carr isn’t teaching and hiding his ink under long sleeves to keep the bosses happy, he’s trying to be the best brother and friend he can be. After his divorce, he’d thought he would lose Thea from his life forever because she’s his ex-wife’s best friend. But now that he’s free, and the two of them realize they want to keep their friendship. Then he finally sees what he’s been missing all this time.
But there are more problems than the fact that Dimitri is Thea’s best friend’s ex. And when accidental touches and flirtations aren’t enough for either of them, and they’re finally ready to take the next step, they’ll find out exactly what that cost is for crossing that line. And will need to find the strength to face it.

Surprise Book Announcement: Ashes to Ink!

Ashes to Ink (A Montgomery Ink: Colorado Springs Romance) releases Jan 22nd. If you read the Gallagher Brothers series, you might have remembered a woman named Abby. I never meant to write her story. If you know my own personal story, you know why. But readers asked and I knew I had to try. So I moved Abby down to Colorado Springs and had her open a tea shop named Teas’d. I can’t wait for you to read her book.
Back in Denver, Abby lost everything she ever loved, except for her daughter, the one memory she has left of the man she loved and lost. Now, she’s moved next to the Montgomerys in Colorado Springs, leaving her past behind to start her new life.
One step at a time.
Ryan is the newest tattoo artist at Montgomery Ink Too and knows the others are curious about his secrets. But he’s not ready to tell them. Not yet. That is…until he meets Abby.
Abby and Ryan thought they had their own paths, ones that had nothing to do with one another. Then…they took a chance.
On each other.
One night at a time.

Series Announcement! Montgomery Ink: Boulder is on the Way!

When the Montgomery Ink: Colorado Springs series ends in February, I’m not saying goodbye to the Montgomerys forever! I cannot wait for you to meet the Boulder cousins. They’ve got secrets, they’ve got romance, and they’ve got a few surprises!
Wrapped in Ink (Montgomery Ink: Boulder Book 1) releases Sept 10th, 2019 and I cannot wait for you to meet the Boulder Montgomerys!
The Montgomerys are heading north to Boulder, Colorado. These Montgomerys hold their secrets close and their family closer…at least that’s what they’ve told themselves over the years. When their world shifts on its axis, however, each sibling will have to fight for a way to find their equilibrium, as well as who they thought they were before everything changed. Breaking down their own barriers won’t be easy, but they’re Montgomerys and never back down from a challenge—even when the challenges happen to be the ones they never saw coming.
Each book can be read as a stand alone.
The Montgomery Ink: Boulder series is set in the same world as the Montgomery Ink, Montgomery Ink: Colorado Springs, Fractured Connections, Gallagher Brothers, and Whiskey and Lies series.

Sparks fly between a former cop-turned-bartender and his new innkeeper in the first installment of a Montgomery Ink spin-off series from NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan.
Dare Collins is a man who knows his whiskey and women—or at least that’s what he tells himself. When his family decides to hire on a new innkeeper for the inn above his bar and restaurant, he’s more than reluctant. Especially when he meets the new hire. But he’ll soon find that he has no choice but to work with this city girl and accept her new ideas and the burning attraction between them.
Kenzie Owens left her old life and an abusive relationship behind her—or so she thought. She figures she’ll be safe in Whiskey, Pennsylvania but after one look at her new boss, Dare Collins, she might still be in danger, or at least her heart. And when her past catches up with her despite her attempts to avoid it, it’s more than her heart on the line. This time, it might mean her life.
