Despite family drama, a persistent ex-boyfriend, and more catastrophes than Holly could have dreamed of, she’s determined to put her island on the map. Now, with the bases fully loaded, Holly needs to see whether she and River will strikeout completely when he leaves the island, or whether their game will have extra innings!
