truer of Virgin River than almost anywhere else on earth.
After years spent on ranches around Los Angeles, Clay Tahoma is delighted to be
Virgin River's new veterinary assistant. The secluded community's wild beauty tugs
at his Navajo roots, and he's been welcomed with open arms by everyone in town—
everyone except Lilly Yazhi.
Lilly has encountered her share of strong, silent, traditional men within her own
aboriginal community, and she's not interested in coming back for more. In her eyes,
Clay's earthy, sexy appeal is just an act used to charm wealthy women like his ex-wife.
She can't deny his gift for gentling horses, but she's not about to let him control her.
There's just one small problem—she can't control her attraction to Clay.
But in Virgin River, faith in new beginnings and the power of love has doors
opening everywhere ...

Carr's 11th Virgin River novel (after 2010's Moonlight Road) reads less like a story and more like a history book. Chapters of background lead to more chapters about horse colic, the characteristics of hoarders, and posttraumatic stress. Interesting characters pop up, but aren't really part of the story. And somewhere in there is the rather sweet tale of Clay Tahoma and Lilly Yazhi. Clay, a 34-year-old Navajo veterinarian, moves to Virgin River from Los Angeles after a failed marriage; Lilly, 27 and Hopi, has lived in the tiny Northern California town most of her life. The two bond over the rehabilitation of two troubled horses. There's a misunderstanding or two, and old hurts are aired at length, but this is more of a look through a window or a long gossip over coffee than a tightly plotted narrative.
