About this audiobook

#1 New York Times bestselling author Robyn Carr returns to the beloved town of Virgin River with a brand-new story about fresh starts and new friends.

Now a Netflix Original Series!

Kaylee Sloan’s home in Southern California is full of wonderful memories of the woman who raised her. But the memories are prolonging her grief over her mother’s recent death. A successful author, Kaylee hoped she could pour herself into her work. Instead she has terrible writer’s block and a looming deadline.

Determined to escape distractions and avoid the holiday season, Kaylee borrows a cabin in Virgin River. She knows the isolation will help her writing, and as she drives north through the mountains and the majestic redwoods, she immediately feels inspired. Until she arrives at a building that has just gone up in flames. Devastated, she heads to Jack’s Bar to plan her next steps. The local watering hole is the heart of the town, and once she crosses the threshold, she’s surprised to be embraced by people who are more than willing to help a friend—or a stranger—in need.

Kaylee’s world is expanding in ways she never dreamed possible. And when she rescues a kitten followed by a dog with a litter of puppies, she finds her heart opening up to the animals who need her. And then there’s the dog trainer who knows exactly how to help her. As the holidays approach, Kaylee’s dread turns to wonder. Because there’s no better place to spend Christmas than Virgin River.

Don't miss Robyn Carr's next uplifting novel, The Friendship Club, where four women come together at a tumultuous time in their lives, forging an unbreakable bond that will leave them all forever changed—available January 2024!

Ratings and reviews

Audiobook review: Story – 5 Performance – 5 Overall – 5 One of my favorite series ever! I fell in love with Virgin River sometime in late 2012. I’d recently retired and, after years of not reading for pleasure, I finally had time to read again. I honestly can’t remember how I discovered the series but I can tell you that once I did, I went through all of the books pretty quickly; I couldn’t get enough of the characters and the setting. I listened to the audiobook of this and Therese Plummer did a fantastic job. I’d listened to a couple of the other books in the series (after having first read them) so I was familiar with her voice and was so happy that she was able to also narrate this one as well. I was very sad to see the series end and I was so happy when I found out there would be another book. I don’t watch TV at all any more so I haven’t seen the Netflix series based on it but I imagine that the series deserves some of the credit for getting us another book. 😊 This story fit right in with the previous ones; it was like going back to visit an old friend. I loved the characters and really felt for them for what they were going through. I knew that it would have an HEA but I have to admit that I shed a few tears, both happy and sad, before I finished the book. Virgin River is probably my favorite fictional place to visit. It would be great if we could have an annual visit there in the form of another book. A complimentary copy of this audiobook was provided to me by the publisher but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author and/or narrator.
