Widowed Melinda Monroe sees an ad in the paper for a Midwife and makes a quick decision to take the job. She wants to get away from the emergency room in Los Angeles and the memories of her late husband. But when she arrives in Virgin River, she finds the rent-free cabin she was promised is a dump, the roads are washed out from a storm, and the local doctor wants nothing to do with her. She's ready to give up and go home. But when she finds an abandoned baby on the doctor's porch, her plans change. And, a local maine who runs a bar/restaurant, may make her decide to stay.

Easy read with interesting characters who have to overcome their past. I loved the smalltown setting. My rating: 4.5 stars.
