Helpful Score: 2

3.5 stars for this book--it's a solid addition to the series. This particular book is about Bree and Mike but I caution readers that like all of Robyn Carr's books, it's not so much a romance focused and centered around one couple as it is an ungoing tale of the town of Virgin River as a whole. This means a lot of the extended stories of old characters, and the introduction of brand new ones. Personally I like this, but it's something to be aware of.

Bree, a prosecuting attorney, is just getting over her divorce and the loss of a major case when tragedy strikes her yet again. She's brutally attacked by a criminal she tried to put in prison. Mike, a close family friend, is himself barely recovered from a shooting that nearly killed him. Mike is already half in love with Bree when he sets himself to the task of helping her heal and move on. Their romance is sweet and touching.

I really love all of the characters in this little world that Carr has created. Each is unique in personality, amusing in their own way, and easy to relate to. The characters are what draw readers in and keep them reading. The plot of this book is not tremendously exciting and there are no surprises. Yet it's an uplifting, fulfilling read.
