Publisher Description

A moving story about survival, forgiveness - and the power of love to heal a wounded spirit.



Marine corporal Rick Sudder is home early from Iraq - his tour ended abruptly on the battlefield. The carefree boy is gone, replaced by a man who believes his future is as bleak as his mirror image. But can the passion and commitment of a young woman who has never given up on him mend his broken body and shattered heart?

As the people of Virgin River rally around Rick, another recent arrival tests the tightly knit mountain town's famous welcoming spirit. Dan Brady has a questionable past, and he's looking for a place to start over. He'd like it to be Virgin River...if he can find a way in. But he never expects to find it in the arms of a woman who was as much and outcast as himself.

For a favourite son returned from war and an outsider looking for a home, Virgin River offers them a chance to make peace with the men they once were...and to find the dreams they thought they'd lost.

"I put this one off. I think I've read every other book in the series now. I wasn't sure I wanted to read about the teens, the mature couple, and the alcoholic/grower. But I had wanted to read more about Cam and Abby. I was wrong to wait. I truly care about all the couples and I'm glad I read it. I love this series, this town, and how Robyn Carr gets you to care about the couples."

    " Ricks story was hard to read but very well written. I just felt so bad for him and it makes you realize how hard some soldiers have it. It was very vivid and realistic and truthful about how a wounded soldier returning from a war will missing parts would act and feel. I hurt for him and his loved ones and I enjoyed reading about him healing and evolving. Definitely recommend! "

    " This sixth book in the Virgin River series leaves me with mixed feelings. Oh, it's always great to be back in Virgin River and to be reunited with Jack and Mel, but it seems that in this book there were too many stories going on all at once, instead on really focusing on one main story. "
