One Night with You

Montgomery Ink Legacy, Book 7

By: Carrie Ann Ryan

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, Emma Wilder

Never fall for your best friend.

That’s the rule. The code.

Claire Harlow always follows rules—except this one.

However, when an attack leaves both of their worlds shaken, she decides to walk away from what could have been and hide within her own shadows. Kingston Montgomery is the man who saves the day.

At least that’s what he’s always told himself—until one day he was too late.

Now he’s trying to find his purpose while also ignoring the heat between him and Claire.

When a chance blizzard changes their plans, one night turns to two…and then there’s no going back. Only the two must overcome what they thought their relationship should be and realize what it could become. Because if they don’t figure it out quickly, the spark that ignites them could burn them both.

One Night With You

Kingston and Claire were just prefect. Obviously we know Kingston from the other Montgomery books, and we meet Claire in His Second Chance since she is Phoebe’s best friend. Kingston and Claire are still dealing with the effects of events from the last few books as well as their feelings. I love all these books so much. The way Carrie Ann Ryan writes hooks me in and I don’t want to leave. I also love the way she ties the next book into the current one, because I always leaves me so excited.

Great story!

Kingston and Claire went through a horrific ordeal together. Several months later, Claire still has nightmares about the night she was stabbed. Being too much into her head, she begins to avoid Kingston. When she finds out he's home recovering from donating his marrow for a friend suffering from cancer, she goes to visit and apologizes for her behavior. Getting their friendship back on track, they begin to spend more time together and their attraction towards one another only gets stronger.

A planned vacation with friends turns into Claire and Kingston being stranded alone together in a cabin in the mountains. They give into the chemistry and attraction towards one another and spend a hot and sexy night together. This is the beginning of their HEA they never seen coming.

Great narration by Teddy Hamilton and Emma Wilder. Carrie Ann never disappoints.

One Night With You

Another good story in the Montgomery Ink Legacy series. I loved getting to see the way Kingston and Claire’s relationship takes shape. The two make a good couple and their chemistry really shines. Their story moves at a good pace and has a nice mix of sweet and sexy. Narrators Teddy Hamilton and Emma Wilder do a wonderful job of bringing out the emotions in these characters. I was quickly pulled in to the story and entertained all the way to the end.

My new favorite

I received this as an arc/alc from the author and I’m voluntarily leaving my honest review.

This was probably my favorite book by this author ever. I love the friends to lovers trope and when it’s combined with a forced proximity trope then it’s hard to go wrong. The story was really well written and it had some fantastic steamy bits but also some really heartbreaking moments. Kingston was just dreamy and I loved his chemistry with Claire. It was just such a wonderful story and I really didn’t want it to end.

Audiobook review: It was a fantastic audiobook, it was so well narrated and I got completely lost in the story and I was sad every time I had to take out my earphones because I didn’t want to let the story go. But I will say that it should have come with a warning not to listen to it on your way to work if you’re prone to getting teary eyed by a book.

Emma Wilder & Teddy Hamilton are pure perfection

Teddy Hamilton and Emma Wilder were absolutely amazing voicing Kingston and Claire. They were actually perfect.
A snowstorm left them stranded in a cabin and one thing leads to another and next thing you know they are navigating through what they are together. Both battling their own demons. Claire is still reeling from her attack and Kingston continues to struggle with his not being there or failing. Together they help each other. And during their “time” the rest of the Montgomery’s already see what’s happening 😉 Carrie Ann knows how to bring out all the feels with her writing. So sit back and enjoy with a side of your favorite cheese. 🤣

Emotional and romantic!

Oh how I’ve been waiting for this story since the last book! “One Night with You” is a romantic, emotional and sweet friends to lovers romance that was a fantastic addition to the series.

After an attack that left both of them shaken to their core, Claire Harlow and Kingston Montgomery have still remained friends but have been distant from each other. Both are still trying to process and move on from that night. But when a planned getaway with friends ends up in a snowstorm and with them alone together, the chemistry they have finally comes to the surface. Now that the line has been crossed, they have to figure out what their future could be.

When a Montogomery is involved, you’re always guaranteed a swoony and romantic time. In the previous book, you could already feel the chemistry that was between these two. It was just simmering under the surface and I couldn't wait for it to boil over. Claire has a thriving business, a big heart but under was a woman still trying to overcome the past. She was working hard to rein in the feelings she was going through and keeping Kingston at arm’s length wasn’t helping. I loved Kingston and everything he stood for. He had the urge to protect and being a part of the security side of the family was the best fit for him. And after what they went through together, wanting to protect and care for Claire became second nature for him. I loved their connection and they just fit so well together. The blizzard was exactly what they needed to bring them together finally. I loved all the scenes with the rest of the family and I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Teddy Hamilton and Emma Wilder were absolutely amazing as Kingston and Claire. Teddy’s performance was protective and passionate like Kingston. Emma’s narration was caring, vulnerable and she was the perfect choice to bring Claire to life.

Love Kingston

I love everything about the Montgomery family and this is Kingston and Claire's beautiful story. This is book #7 in the Montgomery Ink legacy so get ready to have your mind blown again with another incredible story.

I am always ready for a forced proximity story

A friends to lovers but a twist of have held back until thrown together in a way that reveals it all. The thing I loved about this story was how both Claire and Kingston were thrown off their normal in a way that made them see each other in a new way.
You know the forced proximity is going to get me every dang time!
Both narrators brought these characters, their emotions and their story to my ears in such a beautiful way.

The thirst for temptation begins.

With a flip of the page and a twist of the heart, the thirst for temptation begins. Kingston and Claire take emotions on a thrill of a ride. From intriguing to unpredictable, honest to endearing, passionate to irresistible, Ryan breaks through the barriers of the soul to get to the heart of the matter. Hamilton and Wilder are at their best. One Night with You begins with a spark of heat and ends with a burning inferno.

I loved Kingston and Claire!!

Kingston saved Claire and yet, she withdrew into herself. The trauma she had experienced affected her more than she liked to admit. And Kingston made her feel things. When they find themselves snowed in together, they take advantage of the chemistry between them. I was here for it! Kingston and Claire are made for each other and it’s not a hardship for them. Their chemistry is good and they balance each other out. I really enjoyed listening to this book. Teddy Hamilton and Emma Wilder do a great job of bringing these characters to life! It felt believable and I didn’t want their story to end!
