Synopsis
June Hudson is the town's doctor, a caring, capable woman who now has a bit of explaining to do. People are beginning to notice the bloom in her cheeks—and the swell of her belly. Happily, DEA agent Jim Post is back in June's arms for good, newly retired from undercover work and ready for new beginnings here in Grace Valley.
Expecting the unexpected is a way of life in Grace Valley, and the community is overflowing with gossip right now. Who is the secret paramour June's aunt Myrna is hiding? Does the town's poker-playing pastor have too many aces up his sleeve? But when dangers, from man and nature, rise up with a vengeance to threaten June and the town, this community pulls together and shows what it's made of. And Jim discovers the true meaning of happiness here in Grace Valley: there really is no place like home.

Reviews
Im about to plunge into reading the 19th book in the Virgin River series. She changed the names, made the cafe a bar and a few other cosmetic differences, but Grace Valley & Virgin River are clearly closely related. I guess its not plagerism when you steal ideas from your own earlier series. Some of these characters did make cameo appearances in the latter series. I wonder why she moved over a mountain to a new town rather than expand her trilogy. Granted, she made her Virgin River crew even more loveable. Id think she just got better as she went along , except the last half of the latter series hasnt kept up to the quality of the first half or of this earlier series. Guess you can only stretch that so far. Good that Im about finished, I suppose..
