My rating: 4 of 5 stars





There are days when I find myself so incredibly lucky that I discovered the indie community of authors because sometimes, that`s when you find the biggest pearl in the smallest of clams – yeah, yeah, I know, horrible, horrible analogy, but I think you get what I mean by now. That`s how I discovered Carrie Ann Ryan and her books.

I started with the Montgomery Ink series and worked my way through her library, hoping that I managed to read the big majority of them, and I also saw when she was added to the 1001 Dark Nights series lineup and was excited to see what else this author would deliver from there. And boy did she ever deliver, especially with the newest addition in the Montgomery series with Inked Nights.

While I really do love her full length novels, I especially enjoy how she takes her novella and makes them even hotter, and thus, unforgettable. So yeah, while the book is shorter, it doesn`t feel as such. The pace is a bit quicker, but in my mind, we get to the fun parts faster, which I really like. These characters have known each other for years, and I enjoyed the fact that they were seeing one another once a month before finally realizing just how much they`ve known each other and how.

I really enjoyed this story and can`t wait to find out which story we`re getting next since I know that no matter what we`re getting, it`s the story that will get me wanting so much more from this author in the future.

Read an excerpt from INKED NIGHTS

So I was at the bar, and a man in dark jeans, a blue Henley, and a sexy beard comes up to me, taking the last seat at the bar. He was broad-shouldered, sexy as hell, and had a deep voice that went straight to the right places.” Alice gave a smoky laugh, and Olivia realized exactly how detailed she’d been just then. Apparently, Derek brought that out in her even when he wasn’t near. “We didn’t speak for a few moments until he finally turned and smiled.” She paused, remembering even as her heart ached. She loved that smile. Loved him if she were being honest. And she could never see him again. “I don’t remember exactly what we said that first time. But we talked for over an hour and had more than a few drinks. He said he was visiting, though I didn’t ask from where.” She figured now that he’d most likely been at the hotel traveling for his job, but she really didn’t know. She hadn’t asked and was afraid she never would. Though now that she thought about it, there had been a tattoo convention near, so maybe he’d been staying for that and not just the shop? “Somehow, we ended up in his hotel room.” “Damn, girl.” “I know. It was so unlike me. It’s still so unlike me. And when we were through with each other, he said he wanted to see me again but couldn’t until he came back to town. So we promised to meet again the next month. Same time. Same place. We made our promises to ourselves, no names, just sex, just time. And we kept with it for four years without missing a month. I can’t believe we made it last as long as we did without finding out more about each other, but we did. And now…and now it’s crazy.” “You called him Derek. So you must know his name now.” “He asked me to call him by his name this last time.” She paused. “And that’s how I realized I knew him.” Alice paused. “You know him? Of course you do. You’ve been sleeping with him for four years. I’m not judging. You know I wouldn’t because what you’re doing is damn hot and I know you’re being careful because you wouldn’t be Olivia if you weren’t, so there must be something to it.” “I know him from when I was younger. Much younger. I didn’t realize it was him because of the beard and, honestly, I never thought I’d see the Derek I knew again. He doesn’t recognize me, though. I don’t know why he would. It’s been so long.” “And that means you can’t see him again? Because, from the way you’re sounding, I have a feeling you want to run away from him and what you could have.” Alice knew her far too well. “There are things…there are things I need to tell him before I tell anyone else. Reasons why I never should have been with him. Why I can’t be with him again. I’ll tell him. I have to. But I just don’t know how.” Then she told Alice about the fact that Derek knew her neighbor and how he’d come over and that everything seemed to be falling apart around her. She was her own undoing, and she had to figure out the next step.
