Bittersweet Promises

With one look, Brooke knows that she can’t fight the desire that pulled them together before, despite the skeletons in both their closets.

Leif Montgomery fell hard for Brooke Alder in Paris when they were young, and he thought their fling was just an early taste of what life had in store for him.

But life had other plans, and he didn’t find that kind of love—or see Brooke’s face—for years.

Until he visits his cousin’s house and sees who’s moved in next door.

They’ve both changed: she’s a struggling single mom, he’s running from a past he’s trying to hide while opening up a new tattoo shop. Yet the moment he sees her again, he knows she’s the one for him.

**Bittersweet Promises is a next generation, single mom, right person/wrong time romance in the Montgomery Ink Legacy series featuring Leif and Brooke. Each book can be read as a complete standalone. An HEA is guaranteed!**

Leif Montgomery is Austin and Sierra’s son from Delicate Ink.
