Welcome back to Virgin River with the books that started it all…

Reverend Noah Kincaid moved to Virgin River to re-open an abandoned church he bought on eBay. Like Noah, the place is a little empty inside but all it may need is some loving care…

The young widower arrives ready to roll up his sleeves and build a place of worship and welcome, but he needs some help. And the Lord works in mysterious ways.

With her tight shirts and short skirts, ‘pastor’s assistant’ is not a phrase that springs to mind when Noah meets brassy, beautiful Alicia Baldwin. The former exotic dancer needs a respectable job so she can regain custody of her children. And Noah can’t help but admire her spunk and motherly determination.

Noah and Alicia are an unlikely team to revitalise a church, much less build a future. The couple has so many differences, but in Virgin River anything is possible, and happiness is never out of the question.
