This book is such a treat for all Robyn Carr and Virgin River fans! New friends and some old brought together in a couple of stories that center around this fine town and its amazing assortment of eclectic characters.  All are fun-loving and filled with traditional family values, albeit not always the garden variety.

Traditions are important and in HOLIDAYS IN VIRGIN RIVER Robyn Carr showcases some fabulous families. As always, the characters are folks you would love to have as friends, and by the time you get to the end of each story, you feel as if you did meet some new ones.

First, up at bat are Nathaniel and Annie. Nathaniel is the local large animal vet. He took over his father’s practice when he returned home to Virgin River. Nate had grown up knowing the McKenzie family. Especially the boys but remembers fondly the younger sister Annie.

Annie is no longer the awkward little sister. She is a strong stunning owner of the town’s beauty salon. Annie had thought of becoming a vet all her years working on the family farm.  But couldn’t follow that dream. She was still in the caring business, just now helping the ladies of the town. But Annie has never met an animal she didn’t love, which initially brought her and Nate together. Caring for a little of eight puppies abandoned under a Christmas tree.

Robyn Carr so easily sets the scene for a terrific feel-good tale. And UNDER THE CHRISTMAS TREE is vintage Robyn Carr.

The second story MIDNIGHT CONFESSIONS is about getting over the anger and lack of trust and confidence issues that linger after a bad breakup. In Sunny’s case that meant being left at the altar at her New Year’s Eve wedding just a year ago. For Drew, it was breaking up with his girl who couldn’t or wouldn’t commit to working out logistic issues in their relationship. Sunny was going to use a visit to her Uncle Nate and his fiancé, Annie, as a chance to regain a measure of confidence and lick her wounds. Fate brought Drew and Sunny together. Only time would tell if Sunny would be open to trusting her heart to another man. And Drew hoped he would be the guy to earn that trust.

From cover-to-cover classic Robyn Carr is the consummate master of creating towns and communities and a cadre of incredible characters. In HOLIDAYS IN VIRGIN RIVER Robyn Carr includes two heartwarming stories with some amazing folk. Each person emotes feelings and earns a special place in the reader’s heart. And like all tales in Virgin River, we get to spend more time with old favorites.

SUMMARY

Celebrate the holidays with this special edition containing 2 fan-favorite stories from the Virgin River series. Includes exclusive recipies inspired by the Virgin River characters.

Under the Christmas Tree

With snow falling over the redwood forests, secluded Virgin River is the ideal place to spend the holidays. Each year, the close-knit community gathers in the town square to decorate and light a massive tree. Carols are sung, hot chocolate is shared—and this year, a surprise is about to bring two special people together. When the townsfolk discover a box of adorable puppies under the town’s Christmas tree, they call on local vet Nathaniel Jensen for help. But it’s his budding romance with Annie McCarty that really has tongues—and tails—wagging!

Midnight Confessions

In Virgin River, holiday kisses don’t end with Christmas—there’s still the New Year’s Eve party at Jack’s Bar to attend. Locals and newcomers alike find themselves eager for that special countdown…and that midnight kiss.

As the townspeople gather, two lonely revelers decide the best balm for their broken hearts might just be each other.

BONUS: Includes a special note from Robyn Carr, author of the popular Netflix series, Virgin River.
