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 her, 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 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.

I will start off with saying, I love this author. I have read pretty much everything she has written. I adore the Montgomery's and this spin off of the family has been good reading so far. This story is about Roxie and Carter. We have met them in earlier books and get the sense that things are not ok with the marriage.
My issue with this book is that I could have done away with the first 40% of the book. It was told in alternating POV but every chapter was just all the same thoughts by each lead character. Neither would talk to their friends. Neither would talk to each other and they just seemed resigned to throw in the towel. Finally, when they decide to at least talk to each other instead of staying in their heads, the story starts to pick up.
I did like how everything played out. I liked that they needed to get to know each other again. I loved the message that relationships are work and we have to be open to change and being able to talk about it in order to continue forward. All good stuff.
If the first part of the book was condensed to a chapter, this would have been a great read. I liked it in the end but not my favorite from this author.
