Angela Lacroix comes to Virgin River not only to visit her Uncle Jack and Aunt Brie, but to sort out her life. After a terrible accident sidelined her for months, she is rethinking medical school and may want to go in another direction. She and her mother are disagreeing about her future, so she wants to spend some time in Virgin River to sort out her life.

Patrick Riordan, the youngest of the Riordan brothers, is also in Virgin River. He is on leave from the Navy after witnessing his best friend dying in combat. Now he is reconsidering his military career and wants to be alone to think about it. But when Angie and Patrick meet at Jack's bar, there is an immediate attraction. Friends and relatives who notice the attraction try warning the two of them that now isn't the time to get into a relationship. But the two people who came to Virgin River to be alone, now just want to be alone with each other.

This is a wonderful final book to the Virgin River series. Angie has always been driven to study and become a doctor. After her accident, she wants to take a break and do some of the things she has been missing. Patrick needs to figure out how he is going to take care of his best friend's widow, Marie. I wanted to slap him a couple of times when he thinks marrying Marie and becoming a family is the best thing to do. Thankfully, Marie has different ideas.

The nice thing about the Virgin River series is we get to revisit many of the characters. This story is full of them, including the whole Riordan clan and the Sheridan family. I'm sorry to see this series end. My rating: 4.5 Stars.
