The only problem I have is how do you choose? How do you choose your favorites in the Virgin River series? I thought no one could top the original alpha with a heart of gold (Jack Sheridan from Virgin River), but man oh man, those Riordan guys are coming awfully close! First Luke, then Sean, and now Aiden? How does one family produce such yummy guys? I think I fell in love with former Navy doctor Aiden Riordan way back in brother Luke's book ( Temptation Ridge) and I'm happy to say he does not disappoint in his own book. And it's not a genre I want to read.Ī., where's my thesarus? There are not enough words to adequately convey my feelings for this book or series in general. This series is more women's health fiction (has Robyn Carr created a whole new genre?!) than anything else. Books where I'm not cringing every other page. Books where I don't feel like the author is `educating' me by lecturing their beliefs. Books with less lubricant and fewer brats who can't speak properly. It tells me there are better books out there. They were both horrendous characters at the beginning, and the prom thing was kind of cheesy, but their story was actually nice.īut the fact this is the last thought that popped into my mind about this book, and the fact this was the only positive. I'd give at least a star to the Aiden/Erin romance. I think I'd have no problem delivering a baby after reading one or two of these books. Yet again melodramatic and more detailed than the love scenes. We got more births - yes, births, plural. We were once again reminded any woman over thirty-five is a waste of space, and is too old and beyond redemption.

We got lectured to about caring for the disabled - again.

When an author starts destroying their characters in order to find new plotlines you know it's time for a series to end. Jack telling Mel he missed having the opportunity to have sex with her during her `time of the month' destroyed any romance left between them.Īnd the only occasionally likeable Mel was completely massacred here too, with all of her usual self-absorption and pushiness shining through and culminating in a dreadful storyline for the character. Once she'd killed Jack's character, she killed Jack and Mel's relationship. And there's no better way to kill the romance of a romantic hero than write him into a conversation about vaginal dryness and what new lubricants are on the market. We got another lesson in the details of menopause - but this time it happened when Jack had a conversation about it. The region has a disproportionate percentage of residents who make a living from working between women's legs. In a medical textbook, and in a Robyn Carr `romance'. There are two places you're guaranteed to hear about vaginal dryness.
