Then comes Liam.

A chance encounter changes the game, and both will have to risk everything they thought important to make this work. Because family secrets and unplanned heartache aren’t the only things trying to tear them apart. But if they’re lucky, the passion between them might just make this romance thing something they can believe in.

Liam & Arden are swoon worthy

This is the first book I have listened to by Carrie Ann Ryan and I have to say that I am impressed. I now need to go and listen to the rest of the books she has on Audible. I really enjoyed how she incorporated Arden's immune disorder into the book. Arden was sick, but was able to find someone who loved everything about her. As a person with an autoimmune disorder, I was happy to see how realisticly the disease was portrayed. A great read.

Paragons fall to earth

Good to know the Montgomery patriarchal paragons aren't immune to HUGE mistakes of ommision. That one really threw me for a loop, and I'm angry at the parents for 35 years of lies!!! Red, red, rage!!! I liked that Arden has a chronic illness and she's not perfect because it made the story more real. I liked that Liam saw past the disease to the person beneath and pursued a relationship with her. Great emotional story. The narrator did an excellent job. I voluntarily listened to a free audio of this story and am giving an honest review .

Loved it all!

I’ve been really enjoying listening to this series!! Great attention keeper. Can’t wait for the next one!

great start to a new series

This first book in this new spin off series was a good read that I enjoyed as all of the other Montgomery Ink books. Where this group does not have the ink side of the Montgomery's dominate the book they all hold the same values. This group is definitely a dynamically different group of siblings than the others and I enjoyed that aspect of them. I was a bit fearful at first with Liam being an author just as Griffin was in the original series but the two characters are nothing alike. I enjoyed that both Liam and Arden had careers that were similar but not the same and I also liked that both of their families were involved. The pair both had issues that they needed to work out - Liam with the family secret that he just learned about and Arden with her health issues. I liked how their story moved along and gave the feel that nothing was going to get in the pair's way. I enjoyed this book from the start and I also enjoyed the narration by Joe Arden in the audio book format as well. Mr. Arden continues to be a favorite narrator of mine and he did a great job bringing this story to life. I would recommend this book to others.

Enthralling

Wrapped in Ink is such a emotional read, its even better when you listen to it. I laughed and cried, my heart broke at times and it soared. I truly enjoyed this book, Carrie Ann Ryan has such a profound effect on you while you get lost in her amazing books. Wrapped in Ink is one of my new go to books. A definite one click.

Love so good

Yes

Liam Montgomery... the lone wolf

Liam’s world has turned upside down. He met Arden, who has a chronic disease but is full of life. While struggling with his ordeal he is getting closer to Arden. I thought her being sick will deter Liam from moving forward but he is all heart. He’s got everything, looks, smarts and a this big heart. He is a Montgomery all the way. This is not the usual romance, and I love the reality that goes with it. Loved the story and how it developed. The narration by Joe Arden is really good too.

amazing

great love story. the amazing love that conquers all no matter what is thrown their way.

Enjoyed

I added this one to my library today and then instantly began to listen. Nice way to spend my day enjoying the journey of Liam and Arden. Always nice to discover more Montgomery's. This was a sweet story and a nice change of pace from what I usually read or listen to. Like how the story came alive from the first page until the end. Joe is a favorite narrator and working with Carrie is always amazing.

Arden and Liam

I have listened to random books in the Montgomery Ink world, none actually in order. I first knew of Arden in her brother Cross's story, Forever Only Once. It was nice to hear how she and Liam met and fell in love. This is a heartbreaking story based on the situation with Arden's health. It was also a beautiful story about family taking care of each other and this man choosing to stick around when leaving would be easier.

Narration by Joe Arden was great and I felt like he brought a lot of life and emotion into the story and was not just reading it me. I cannot tell if it was the narration or the actual story that made this one of my favorites by Carrie Ann Ryan. Either way, I just know this one will be hard to top.
