When the recently widowed Melinda Monroe sees an ad for a midwife/nurse practitioner in Virgin River, she decides the remote mountain town might be the perfect place to escape her heartache and reenergize her nursing career. But her high hopes are dashed upon arriving—the cabin is a dump, the roads are treacherous, and the local doctor wants nothing to do with her. Realizing she’s made a huge mistake, Mel decides to leave town the following morning. But a tiny baby abandoned on a front porch changes her plans…and former marine Jack Sheridan cements them into place.
