Maggie is a neurosurgeon with a great life, a great boyfriend but then everything comes crashing down. She has a miscarriage and her boyfriend can't deal with her sorrow. Than to top it off she is being sued after a young boy dies in her operating room. Maggie decides that she needs a change of pace and goes back to her home town to spend some time with her father Sully. Little did she know this would change her whole life when Sully has a heart attack, and Maggie now stays longer to take care of him. Cal has a lot of baggage. He is staying at the camp site and is very secretive of his past. At first Maggie doesn't trust him at all. Maggie thinks that he is homeless or running from the police. But Cal steps up and helps run the camp grounds until Sully is ready to take over again. They both come to realize that they have a lot in common. As they become closer, they start to share their secrets. Can they both get over WHAT WE FIND about each other? In WHAT WE FIND, Carr gives us a small town where everyone steps in to help each other out during times of need. It's the small town every reader wants to believe exists. Where a very successful woman doctor who has several problems in her life all at once can escape to heal. Where a man running away from his past can find a home. It's a perfect small town world filled with characters playing big roles in the story of Maggie and Cal. Robyn Carr has a gift of writing I love. Whether it is her series or a stand alone book, I love them all her stories. I have every title in her Virgin River and Thunder Point series. So you could say I'm a "Carr fan." When you have a chance pick up one of her books, start reading and enjoy rewarding small town fiction as you'll find in WHAT WE FIND.

SUMMARY

Join Robyn Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Virgin River and Thunder Point series, as she explores the healing powers of rural Colorado in a brand-new story of fresh starts, budding relationships and one woman's journey to finding the happiness she's long been missing 

Between the urban bustle of Denver and the high-stress environment of a career in neurosurgery, Maggie Sullivan has hit a wall. When an emergency, high-risk procedure results in the death of a teenager, Maggie finds herself in the middle of a malpractice lawsuit—and experiencing levels of anxiety she's never faced before. It's in this desperate moment that Maggie's boyfriend decides he can't handle her emotional baggage, and she's left alone, exhausted and unsure of what her future holds. One thing is certain, though: she needs to slow down before she burns out completely, and the best place she can think to do that is Sullivan's Crossing. Named for Maggie's great-grandfather, the land and charming general store at the crossroads of the Colorado and the Continental Divide trails have been passed down through the generations and now belong to Maggie's estranged father, Sully. Though raised by her mother and stepfather after her parents divorced, Maggie has always adored Sully—despite his hands-off approach to fatherhood. When she shows up unannounced in Sullivan's Crossing, he welcomes her with opens arms, and she relishes the opportunity to rebuild their relationship. But when Sully has a sudden heart attack, Maggie's world is rocked once again. Consumed with his care, she's relieved to find that Cal Jones, a quiet and serious-looking camper, has been taking over many of Sully's responsibilities as he recuperates. Still, Maggie is suspicious of this mysterious man's eagerness to help—until she finds out the true reason for his deliberate isolation. Though Cal and Maggie each struggle with loss and loneliness, the time they spend together gives Maggie hope for something brighter just on the horizon…if only they can learn to find peace and healing—and perhaps love—with each other.
