This is book 3 in this series. The series follows three brothers and their friends as they find the loves of their lives. There are several points of view scattered throughout the book. I feel that it is best to read these books in order. However, the author does a great job of recapping the stories already told. This book is about the baby brother, Travis. Travis and Tessa have been friends forever. He has always had a crush on her, but he left for the military before he could do anything about it. Travis didn't take his dad's death very well and was always getting into trouble. The military was the best choice for him. He comes home after serving 6 years. He craves adventure to outrun the demons that he has in his mind from witnessing such devastating happenings while in Iraq. Tessa is a physical therapist. She is the only girl sandwiched between her two brother and the Thompson boys. I had a harder time relating to Tessa than the other female characters. I felt like she was too hard on Travis and lead him on with her boyfriend. There were many moments where I just teared up because I felt so badly for Travis and all that he has gone through. His family is trying to get him to open up, but he is just not having any part of it. I did come to like Tessa as the book progressed. This book has no sex and no cursing. It is full of morals and values. No cliffhanger.
Travis and Tess have been friends forever. Travis is now home from after being in the service and being in two tours of Iraq. Tess is a physical therapist and has decided to move closer to home. Travis is working the Triple T with is brothers, but in the mean time he also rides bulls, dirt bikes, just about anything to get his adrenaline pumping. Tess has loved secretly Travis for years, and Travis has loved Tess also. Travis thinks he's not good enough for her.Tess moves to Dalles and starts dating a guy, then Travis gets hurt. While helping Travis with his rehab, the other guy steps out of the picture because he can see Travis' feelings even if Travis can't admit them. Will these two ever get together? Will the youngest brother ever get his HEA?
This is the third book in this series. Travis and Tess have known each other since they were young. Travis grows up and joins the military. Tess goes into physical therapy. When Travis returns home from war, he is running from what happened in the war and becoming an adrenaline junkie. A few injuries and a lot of heartache later, he is windsurfing and rescues a boy. With that rescue, Travis got hurt. While on bed rest, Tess and Travis realize they have loved each other for a long time and Travis realizes he needs to open up about his troubles. With the help of Tess, his 2 brothers, friends, and family, Travis heals physically and emotionally.This is such a great book and I have loved all the characters!
So. Much. Kissing. My goodness. With that left our, this would have been a novella. However, that being said, I loved reading about the Thompson family again and I enjoyed reading Tess and Travis' story. Now, on to book 4!
The young couple in this book face some dark times and overcome some huge obstacles to learn to accept the love and connection that's always been there! Great perspective and nice little happy ever after
I have been reading the Grass Valley series, and this was my favorite book so far. As the widow of a totally-disabled VietNam vet, I saw Post Traumatic Stress Disorder up close and personal. Shanna handled this topic well, showing the torment Travis endured and the helplessness his loved ones felt. I highly recommend this book.
I love Shanna's books and this series definitely has my attention. You cannot help but fall in love with the Thompson brothers and their families. Can't put these books down once you start them and the romance is smokin' hot!
#3 in the series, it's the love story of the third brother, Travis. It's another WONDERFUL love story with ALL the romance needed for a GREAT story. I love Shanna's writing style, "clean" yet romantic!! Looking forward to #4 😊
