We had to know it was coming. With Jack being the single remaining Holland sibling unmarried, it's finally his turn to have his story told. Jack Holland has always been the "little Prince" of the Holland family, being the only boy and all. To his credit Jack is a genuinely good guy. Always there and ready to help. After Jack heroically saves four boys from a car accident, he's not so sure about all the attention he's getting. He doesn't want anyone to see how much he's truly struggling after the incident. When his ex-wife shows up again, he knows he needs to get away. So, when Emmaline Neal needs a date for a wedding across the country Jack's more than willing to go. 
 It would be an understatement to say that Emmaline Neal doesn't want to go to this wedding. Especially since it's the wedding of her ex-fiancee to the woman he cheated on her with. But she has to show she's the bigger person and completely over the whole ordeal (which she is...sort of). But if she has to go at least it's with handsome Jack Holland. When they end up sleeping together, Emmaline is ready to call it what it was (a one night stand) and move on, however Jack seems to be a little bit more persistent in pursuing things. 
 I didn't really know what to expect with Jack's book honestly. Kristan Higgins broke trend by having Waiting On You be about a non-Holland character. So when I learned Jack was next up, I was surprised. I was immediately interested in who would be chosen as his romantic lead. I was surprised that it was Emmaline because, to be honest, she's been a character very much in the background. She hasn't been a secondary character who's been built up a little such as Jessica Dunn (which now makes me wonder when she may get her story). 
 But I really did love Emmaline as the main heroine of our story. She's the complete opposite of what Jack Holland figures he would want in a woman. Being a cop, she's very capable and self-sufficient. She's more likely doing the saving than being saved. I like learning about her background, and the fact that she hasn't been built up a lot yet in the series as a secondary character actually ended up working very well. 
 Jack has been through a traumatic experience and it's interesting to see how it effects his actions in his everyday life and his budding relationship with Emmaline. I liked how Kristan Higgins wrote this part of the story. It's something pretty serious and she handles it very well. 
 As always, it's nice that all the characters from the Blue Heron series move in and out of all the stories. Kind of like catching up with old friends. I'm very interested to see who Kristan Higgins chooses to pair up next!
