Restless Ink (Montgomery Ink: Colorado Springs #2) by Carrie Ann Ryan




Blurb:
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.

My review:
Restless Ink is sweet, sexy and sometimes sad but ultimately a true pleasure to read. What happens when a married couple breaks up and you are friends with both partners? What happens if after a time you start looking at your friends ex as your possible future?  This book deals with just such a dilemma. The fact that Thea and Dimitri are perfect for each other only complicates things. I don’t think I’ve ever said “oh my” to myself while reading a book in so many different ways as I did while reading Thea and Dimitri’s story. Well done Carrie Ann Ryan.
