A Virgin River Christmas by Robyn CarrMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
4.0/5.0 - My favorite book so far in the series. This book has a short timeline (about a month) and takes place within the timeframe of book #3, Shelter Mountain. There is a sharper focus here on just one couple, Marcie and Ian. Marcie is a young widow who is seeking closure after her husband, Bobby's death. She wants to find the man who meant so much to him while in theatre, but who seemed to drop out of sight during the three years that Bobby spent dying. The theme common to the Virgin River books play out here, a veteran and a heroine, each with psychic wounds trying to find a way to move forward with their lives, who discover each other and build a life together. The guys are big and burly and the women are petite, with strong characters.
I find the heroine's name (Marcie Sullivan) and the mention of her husband's large family to be interesting, and I wonder if there will in the future be a tie into the Sullivan's Crossing series.
