Adam is the last of the trio of brothers to get their HEA. Adam and Holly have a history and were a couple as teenagers. Adam does something stupid and enlists in the military. He dumps Holly and cuts all ties with her. "For her own good." Yes, that wonderful phrase. Fast forward more than a decade and he is back in his small ID town running a search and rescue group providing training to dogs (and people) and occasionally doing a rescue. Holly is an executive for her father's business. She moved back to ID because dear old daddy asked her to. She asked for help finding her father when he misses a meeting (he is known to go off on his own for days, but it's unusual when he doesn't answer his phone/misses a meeting).
I was looking forward to Adam's story, but I found I didn't really like Adam all that much. Or Holly. Or her dad (his girlfriend is younger/same age as Holly- yuck! And he is a serial dater- of younger women). Adam is too much "it's for your own good!" It irritated me that Holly's dad suffered a major life event and DIDN'T TELL HOLLY. HE TOLD ADAM! I wanted Holly to be all like fuck y'all I'm DONE! She threw herself at Adam too much for my taste too. I didn't like or get the romance in this one. I am interested in Griff and Kate's story.
