Keeping You (The Ink Well Chronicles Book 3) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 22 ratings

One simple question changed both our lives.

Can I keep you?

We were only nine then, and all that mattered to us was seeing each other again.

But that all changed as we grew up.

Years of pretending like we didn’t know each other. That nothing we felt when we were younger had ever happened.

As if that question was never asked.

Who knew that it would take so long for us to figure it all out? To stop pretending and finally realize that we had been there for each other all along.

It might have taken us 21 years, but it’s finally here.

And this is our story.

    I have the other ink well books and totally loved them, but i have to say i think this was my favorite of them all. Erica and Chase loving each other since they were kids was so sweet (even though i wanted to slap them both when they refused to let each other know that they remembered ) but once all the secrets came out it was a beautiful love story. Highly recommend reading this book as well as the other ink well books.

    This book has a great cast of characters and is sweet to read. It is also one of the most frustrating books to read. It starts strong but I feel the missed opportunities to speak up and the complete no interest in others was taken to far.

    I adored Bates Pas de Deux and was very keen to read this, but it falls short of my expectations.

    What is not to love in this story? You cannot help but feel the angst from so many missed opportunities. At the Age of 7 and 9 two souls found each other but it would be almost 2 decades of missed chances for Chase and Erica. This story tugs on your heartstrings and you cannot help but cheer along with their friends when FINALLY, they both take a chance and put their hearts on the line. Several scenes moved me to tears. I loved how the entire Ink Well founders truly became all the family they each needed. I may have started with book Three but I can guarantee I am going to enjoy reading the other books just as much.

    Good grief. The first part will drive you insane reading year after year after year of no one communicating. Once the years become more present, finally the read flows easier and another good book of this series.

    This story hit all my feels. Childhood friends Erica and Chase torn apart by Chase’s family moving. As he is leaving, he asks her “Can I keep you”

    Wow! I melted right there. Two young kids that are so close. But then they come in and out of each other’s lives several times and pretended not to recognize each other?! This is the only part I had a problem with.

    Over all I still enjoyed the book and I think you will also. It would be a 4.5 to me.

    Keeping You is a good reminder about an individual’s perspective being their reality. Chase and Erica continue to dance around each other’s existence, never admitting that they remember the other, but when they have their moment, it is so beautiful! This is a perfect love story! I love the way their story came together over a span of 21 years, and even when they were apart, they were together.
