Excellent story about two people with past issues and their struggles to let go and enjoy a new relationship together. The story is filled with beautiful settings and many interesting characters, paving the way for the sequels.

I am a new Robyn Carr fan because of this book. It was such a good story. Mel is trying to accept the fact that she is widowed young. This book really delves into how she works through her guilty feelings and learns to trust again. The book is so easy and smooth. There is not too much sex. Just the right amount to be realistic and necessary to the story.

This is the first book I've read by Robyn Carr. I loved it so much I had to run out and buy the other 2 books in the series as soon as they were out. I almost always try to get new books at the library or a used copy somewhere. This series was so addictive that I went out and bought them new at Borders! Now, I'm going to go back and read all of her other books. I highly recommend this series.

Robyn Carr was new to me. I was in a reading slump. So I read this book. How wonderful it is. I love the up and downs,the real people and problems. The little town setting and the way love can come when you are not ready. I will be reading more of her books.

I'm not sure this is a perfect book, but if its not, its pretty durn close. I came to love these characters and have now read all of these Virgin River books. This is a great group of people to get to know, and a very engaging and well-written book. Not a thriller, not fast-paced, just a lovely quiet jaunt through the loves of the town. I recommend it!

I started this series in the middle and enjoyed the books, so I went back to the beginning. I have now read the first 5, and I have heard that after about the 6th or 7th, they become much more predictable and as if Carr cranked them out. That being said, I have loved the first ones, and if you like this type of book, you'll love this one. The first and second were definitely my favorite.

I read a little, enough to know it isn't like driving up the California Highway 36 of my youth (maybe it's Bridgeville of the 1950s, a little cleaned up). I wonder if Robyn Carr pulled a Stephenie Meyer and wrote a book in a setting that she didn't visit. But then, of course, I might not have been observing the right things.
