Rescue My Heart by Jill Shalvis

Readers finally get Adam's story! This is the third novel in Jill Shalvis' series Animal Magnetism. 

Adam is the quiet and mysterious Connelly brother and now we get a chance to find out why. Adam's life was heading downhill when Holly's father suggested for him to join the military. Since then, the young man became a man who hides his emotions from the world. Something happened while he was in the military, and ever since then, he hasn't been the same.

Holly is the typical heroine. She's rich, beautiful, and tough. She has a secret past with Adam and she hasn't forgiven him for breaking her young, foolish heart. However, Holly's father is missing, and she has no choice but to beg for the help of the only man she'd ever loved. 

The story was great and heartwarming. The characters were well-developed and the plot wasn't annoying or repetitive. We knew it wasn't going to be an easy relationship before reading the book because Adam is such a secretive and complex character. Holly was a good fit for Adam and the author did a great job developing their old feelings for one another into something stronger and more complex. The dogs were great additions, and since I love dogs, it made me like the story even more.

I recommend this book to anyone who's a fan of romance, pets, and action. 

The next novel in the series will feature Holly's best friend Kate and Holly's brother Grif!

Animal Magnetism series by Jill Shalvis

This series is awesome. If you love animals and romance, then I’d definitely recommend this series. It’s based on three brothers who have been moved from one foster home to another all their lives. Dell and Adam Connelly are brothers but they also consider Brady Miller as their own brother because they eventually met one another at the last foster home that changed their lives forever (in a good way). Their foster father died, and while Adam went on to join the National Guard, Dell became the town Sunshine’s veterinarian. Brady is a pilot-for-hire and he was only supposed to make a quick visit since his brothers asked him to, but he didn’t expect to meet Lilah Young….

Book 1: Animal Magnetism

Description:

Co-owner of the town’s only kennel, Lilah Young has lived in Sunshine, Idaho, all her life. Pilot-for-hire Brady Miller is just passing through. But he soon has Lilah abandoning her instincts and giving in to a primal desire.

It’s Brady’s nature to resist being tied down, but there’s something about Lilah and her menagerie that keeps him coming back for more.

Book 2: Animal Attraction

Description:

Jade Bennett couldn’t be happier to escape her past for the quiet ranching town of Sunshine, Idaho. Plus, there’s nothing like working for veterinarian Dell Connelly. And though Dell has no intention of settling down, Jade’s strength and sass are enticements no red-blooded male can resist.

Book 3: Rescue My Heart (Release Date: November 6, 2012)

Description:

After a tragic stint in the National Guards, Adam Connelly returns to Idaho and to Belle Haven, the animal shelter he owns with his brothers. All Adam wants is to be alone. Then he opens the door to the past—the woman whose heart he once broke. Still gorgeous, still tough-as-nails, but this time, unusually vulnerable.

Holly learned the hard way to never depend on a man for anything. Now, of all men, it’s the last one she wants to see, and the only one she needs. Her father has gone missing in the Bitterroot Mountains and she could use someone with tracking skills to help find him.

For Holly and Adam, each with their ghosts, a trek this desperate, this unpredictable, and this intimate, will have its share of risks—including opening their hearts one more time.
