Virgin River – Now a Netflix Original series
When one door closes, another one opens.
After years spent on ranches around Los Angeles, Clay Tahoma is delighted to be Virgin River’s new veterinary assistant. The secluded community’s wild beauty tugs at his Navajo roots and he’s been welcomed with open arms by everyone in town – everyone except Lilly Yazhi.
Lilly has encountered her share of strong, silent, men within her own aboriginal community and she’s not interested in coming back for more. In her eyes, Clay’s sexy appeal is just an act used to charm wealthy women like his ex-wife. There’s just one small problem – she can’t control her attraction to Clay…
Is it possible for Clay to convince Lilly he’s not the playboy she thinks he is, and maybe find something much more than either expected in Virgin River?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Carr's 11th Virgin River novel (after 2010's Moonlight Road) reads less like a story and more like a history book. Chapters of background lead to more chapters about horse colic, the characteristics of hoarders, and posttraumatic stress. Interesting characters pop up, but aren't really part of the story. And somewhere in there is the rather sweet tale of Clay Tahoma and Lilly Yazhi. Clay, a 34-year-old Navajo veterinarian, moves to Virgin River from Los Angeles after a failed marriage; Lilly, 27 and Hopi, has lived in the tiny Northern California town most of her life. The two bond over the rehabilitation of two troubled horses. There's a misunderstanding or two, and old hurts are aired at length, but this is more of a look through a window or a long gossip over coffee than a tightly plotted narrative.
