About this eBook

Sometimes, the most profound victories involve risking the heart.

Lila Bellamy is a strong-willed single mother who aims to become a large animal veterinarian while juggling the demands of raising her teenage daughter. Despite her ambition and quiet determination, her aspirations are often thwarted by her boss, Doc Tillman, a seasoned yet stubborn veterinarian, who underestimates her skills and challenges her at every turn.

When health issues necessitate Doc Tillman’s temporary departure, a chance opens for Lila to step up and show her skills, hopefully winning her boss over. That is until the charismatic and frustratingly enigmatic Whit Calloway shows up at her clinic, hired by Doc Tillman to take over in his absence.

Sparks fly from the get-go between Lila and Whit, transforming their professional rivalry into a fiery connection that neither of them can ignore. As they navigate their competing ambitions and burgeoning feelings, they’ll learn that the heart, much like their furry patients, requires tender care and can heal in the most unexpected ways.

A comfortable soft read with the stunning Tetons as the backdrop. I loved the quartet of friends who look after each one another and support each other unquestionably. Lila had been the Rock of Gibraltar for most of her life but when her dreams are just within reach the rug is yanked out from underneath her. I liked Lila’s spunk and determination. The best scene was the picnic turned pigsty! I laughed heartily at the imagery because scenes like that are rare in books and there needs to more!

Kellie Coates Gilbert knows how to write a feel good book. I enjoyed reading her latest, Holding the Dream. This series focuses on a group of 4 friends who have been friends since high school with each book focusing on one of the friends. This book focused on Lila, who is a single mother studying to be a large animal veterinarian who was widowed when her husband was killed while serving in the military when her daughter was very young. This book kept my interest and I enjoyed it.

In a nutshell, I love the character development, the story line, the setting and I don’t have one bad thing to say about this book and the series as a whole. This series makes me want to live somewhere like Thunder Mountain and have such precious friends. If you are like me and love to get lost in a book with characters you feel like you know and places you want to be, then I can’t recommend the Teton Mountain Series highly enough. Kellie Coates Gilbert meets everything I want in a book!
