The Montgomery Ink: Colorado Springs series continues with a couple fighting to keep what they thought they had and gain what they didn’t know they needed.Roxie Montgomery met her soul mate when she least expected it. When he asked her to marry him, she thought her happily ever after was only just beginning. Then, she found that walking into the sunset was much harder than her favorite books made … books made it out to be. After a crushing loss, she feels as though she doesn’t know her husband anymore, or rather…she doesn’t know herself.
Carter Marshall has loved Roxie since the first time he saw her. But as the days pass between them, so does the distance. He doesn’t know how to show her that he’s all in, and honestly doesn’t know if she’s in at all. When an accident changes everything, they’ll have to decide if what they have can be salvaged, or if starting over is the answer. Or even possible.
Without fighting, without a true new beginning, sometimes, the remnants of what was lost can leave anyone jagged, shells of what they were before. It will take more than the idea of forever for Roxie and Carter to find themselves again, but as the Montgomerys know, nothing worth fighting for is easy.

Jagged Ink is the third book in the Montgomery Ink: Colorado Springs series. Roxie is the youngest of four, and has always been surrounded by lots of protective family ready to lend a hand. But Roxie is constantly wanting to prove her independence and her capability to herself and pushing it onto her husband Carter. Carter has been an orphan since his parents died when he was 18. He knows what it means to have nothing and have to survive. He also knows what it meant to have a family again and be included with the Montgomery’s once he married Roxie. and now its all being taken away again. Neither knows how to help the other, how to reach the pain each of them are holding to so tightly, and neither of them knows how to talk about the big things that rocked their still new marriage to the core until its must this side of too late. Then all the card are on the table, and no one is wanting to let go.
I really loved this conclusion to the CS Montgomery. i know they will still be in other books and we sill see their lives progressing but i loved Roxie and carter being the last couple. it shows how much they ha to go through together while the other couples where finding each other and nee love. what they were suffering – in silence- even though everyone knew they protected them more by not asking. cant wait for the next spin off series to begin!
I don’t believe I have ever felt such emotion from reading a book as I did this one. I cried, A LOT, I laughed, I wanted to jump in those pages and help these 2 figure it out. What happens when you both love each other so much but things happen and you both stop talking, whew…what a heart wringer.
I have anticipated this book since we met Roxie and Carter in Fallen Ink. We have hints that they were struggling, yet no further information. This book was a page turner and it was took me on an emotional rollercoaster. Both characters are hurting so much and can’t talk to anyone to help open the lid of their emotions to begin the healing. Once the lids were cracked then the healing began. This story reminds you that when you isolate yourself you take your biggest cheerleaders out of the picture. I loved the story and all at he emotions that went with it. I so enjoyed getting to know Landon a little better and the introduction to Liam. Well Done!!!
This book has so much emotion. The story touches on issues that many couples face and it is handled really well. The Montgomery’s are always a good read but you will need tissues for this one. There is lots of heartache, some fun, lots of love and steamy scenes and of course a HEA.
Ahhh, Carter and Roxie’s story. Bring your Kleenex and a bottle of wine! A beautifully written story that will absolutely give you all of the feels. I loved it.
Another great book by the master!
