Publisher's summary

Rising sous-chef Kelly Matlock's sudden collapse at work is a wake-up call. Disillusioned and burned out, she's retreated to her sister Jillian's house in Virgin River to rest and reevaluate. Puttering in Jill's garden and cooking with her heirloom vegetables is wonderful, but Virgin River is a far cry from San Francisco. Kelly's starting to feel a little too unmotivated… until she meets Lief Holbrook. The handsome widower looks more like a lumberjack than a sophisticated screenwriter - a combination Kelly finds irresistible. But less appealing is Lief's rebellious stepdaughter, Courtney. She's the reason they moved from L.A., but Courtney's finding plenty of trouble even in Virgin River. Kelly's never fallen for a guy with such serious baggage, but some things are worth fighting for. Besides, a bratty teenager can't be any worse than a histrionic chef… right?

Featured Article: Virgin River—The Definitive Explainer


Before it was adapted into a Netflix show, Virgin River was a series of more than 20 novels by New York Times best-selling author Robyn Carr. The audiobooks, all read by Audie Award-winning narrator Thérèse Plummer, are well-loved by a wide audience. The series takes place in Virgin River and revolves around new resident Melinda Monroe, a nurse practitioner and midwife. There's more to this sleepy town than first appearances suggest.

A Chef in Crisis

After suffering a stress reaction and passing out at her job, Kelly quits and runs to her sister’s organic farm. She’s happy making jams and sauces from the produce. When the daughter of the man she loves doesn’t warm to her, it looks like happily ever after will never happen. Great performance and story. Recommend.

This is a great series & soon to be on Netflix

The whole series is based in a small town so you get to know all and new comers that venture there. Filled with love, joy and family. The author is one of my favorites and when I heard that Netflix was going to make a series I couldn't wait so I audibled the series even though I read all the books just to refresh my memory, can't wait

Well Written

This was a very well rounded book. The characters were built properly and followed through till the end. I just wished for a little more with the "falling in love" part. It seemed too rushed. I like the build up to it, where you know the characters are falling for each other and they know it, but nobody has said anything to each other so it fuels the suspense. Otherwise, it was a well written story and more of a family book than a romance novel. The romance part was lacking a bit, but overall, good story. The narrator tried her best to bring the characters to life.

I would love to be able to listen to this story in one sitting, but there is so much going on that if it was less, it would ruin the story.

A modern love story

Carr develops modern, professional female characters in this and the previous book. Problems with work/life balance for the modern female are examined. Also, the merging of families between second marriages is also a theme.
