My favorite Virgin River book(and I‘ve read past this in the series before I got this one)! Marcie‘s marine husband died from severe injuries in the Iraq war. Having not heard from his best friend, Marcie starts to search for him but he seems to have dropped off the grid. Her persistence pays off.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate! The pups woke me up way too early, so catching the 2 Virgin River Christmas episodes. #WinterGames

August 25 #BookBinge Small Town Setting I love the tv series Virgin River but I don't think it's the same as this book. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
I really enjoyed Marcie and Ian‘s story. I hope they show up in more books! And the title is a little deceiving, not a lot of Virgin River or Christmas in this one.
Started and finished this in 4 hours last night. It was just what I needed while I was feeling over stimulated by noise. #WinterGames2021 #TeamGameSleighers #WrapItUpReadathon #WinterCosy #AVeryMerryReadathon @StayCurious @keys_on_fire @TheSpineview
I did some #audiobaking because my mum asked for her favourite brownies. I had to use different chocolate than I normally do, but they still turned out great: crispy top, splodgy innards. (They look underbaked, I know, but they aren‘t. A dry brownie is a terrible thing.)
I made a good started on the tagged book while I worked, and I‘m really enjoying it. I can see why the Virgin River series is so popular.
Loved Marcie and Ian‘s story. Short and sweet but not real heavy on the Christmas.
...I‘m bringing this instead. Here‘s hoping no one will be able to read anything steamy over my shoulder! #superaprops #thatsme
I love this series! Also the Netflix version is fantastic, and I recommend even if you haven‘t read the books. This is book 4 of the series which highlights veterans who ended up in the title‘s Northern California town. Also another #HolidayRead for #WinterGames! This #romantsy book is a holiday treat.

Another square down for the #WinterGames #WinterReadsBingo for #TeamNutcracker In the tagged book, the two main characters are snowed in at his mountain cabin for a few days & get warm in a more intimate way!❄️ 2pts #PointsTotal-215
My 2nd book of the #WinterGames for #TeamNutcracker was a sweet story about a war widow on a mission to find her late husbands sergeant. I‘m not a huge fan of “chick lit” but I don‘t mind the Virgin River series, it has humour & heart. 21pts #PointsTotal-212pts
#WinterGames #TeamNutcracker #FestivePhotoChallenge day2 #SappyHolidayRomance While my current read does have a lot of sarcasm & humour, at its heart it‘s a soppy holiday romance. A year after Marcies Marine husband Bobby finally passed away after spending 3yrs in a vegetative state from injuries received in Iraq, she goes looking for the sergeant that rescued him & finds Ian at Xmas, hiding from memories in Virgin River. 2pts #PointsTotal-88pts
And finally, this #WeeklyForecast is full of Xmas stories for the #WinterGames I am not a huge fan of “chick lit” but it‘s for a challenge which means #SuckItUpButterCup! I do genuinely like Jenny Colgan though and Seven Days Of Us has been likened to This Is Where I Leave You which I love, so fingers crossed🤞It‘s all for #TeamNutcracker🥜 1pt #PointsTotal-86pts
My 2nd book in the #WinterGames for #TeamNutcracker is the first Xmas themed entry to the Virgin River series. Which I‘ve just found out has been adapted for Netflix & starts 6th December! I‘m not a huge reader of either “romance” or “chick lit” but this is one of the few that I enjoy. It‘s quirky & funny and full of heart. 1pt #PointsTotal-73
He talked a little about the wise men, the kings, and the shepherds who left their flocks. They were driven. They had a task, a #goal. As men, they were so different, the simple Shepherds, the kings, but it‘s not only rich men who are driven or poor men who follow a calling. #QuotsyDec18
Oh my, so many feels. I don't think a book has made me cry this much ever! It's not sad, it's just so emotional.
somehow forgot to post this photo for #photoadaynov16 yesterday, I find I do the majority of my reading on the couch but I always end my day with a bit of #readinginbed (and if it's a good book I usually stay up late finishing it as well)
