The definition of it’s always been you!! My lord, my heart. Holden Lexington? I love him. This man has been gone for his girl, and oh does he show it. We’ve had glimpses of Holden & Millie in the previous books, and I’d been dying to know their story, and OOF. It hurt. My heart shattered for these two. I mean Holden’s story?! I cannot stand his monster of a sperm donor (who literally deserves zero acknowledgement). Holden’s had the weight of the world on his shoulders, which led to him breaking both his and Milie’s hearts years ago. When he has to get married, Millie’s the only one he’d even consider marrying. When he finally lets her in and shares what he’s been trying to protect her from?! MY HEART. Like I don’t know how else to put it other than Kristen ripped my heart to shreds and put it all back together in this book. I adore Millie and the way she steps up for Holden, the way she’s his safe space. I love the way Holden shows up for her. The way he’s always shown up for her (whether she knew it or not). I just loved it all. This one has alllll the feels, and every second was perfect. I’ve loved the entire Wilds of Montana series, but there’s just something extra special in this one and it has my heart.
