Mel and Jack’s story
Sometimes all you need is a fresh start
When recently widowed Melinda Monroe sees an advert for a midwife in the remote town of Virgin River, she decides this is the perfect place to escape her heartache.
However, her hopes are dashed within an hour of arriving: the cabin is uninhabitable, the roads are treacherous and the local doctor wants nothing to do with her. But when a tiny baby is abandoned on a front porch, Mel must decide whether to stay and help or cut her losses and leave.
Helped by local barman, and former marine, Jack Sheridan, Mel must face her past, and finds that there may be a future in Virgin River after all.

Amazing!!!!!!
Amazing book! Having watched the series, the book is much better! The author is amazing at capturing the reader with lots of twists and turns (all very different from the series!) can't wait to read the rest!

Beautiful story
Bought this in the sale , so glad I did.
The narrator was wonderful ,women's voices and men's were portrayed brilliantly.
I enjoyed the story very much and I could picture Virgin River as a place you would love to visit.
The characters are wonderful and I will certainly read the next book in this series' I need to find out how Mel and Jack are doing with their new family.

Beautiful series
Love all the Virgin River books listened to them all. So much better than the TV series which flattens the characters and muddles the relationships. The books are so much more and far better, more real, gritty and engaging.

Different to the TV show
It's a lovely story, seems more old-timey, rustic and off the grid than the TV series. Quite different from the TV series in my opinion but I did very much enjoy both.

Book 2 here I come!
Love the Netflix series but loving the books better. The story was told so well by Therese Plummer and to hear her journey with Virgin River too.
