REVIEW: PROMISE CANYON BY ROBYN CARR

 

MY REVIEW:

PROMISE CANYON is book 11 in the Virgin River series.

Clay is finally walking away from a divorce that he just can’t quite break off completely and Lilly has a troubled past from when she was just fifteen that has made her very cautious with men. She takes very good care of her grandfather and really only seems to have her best friend Dean in her life. Despite the fact that Clay and Lilly both share a Native background, she doesn’t want anything to do with Native men. Too much hurt in the past that she hasn’t been able to overcome.  Hope McCrea also adds a bit of excitement to the story, and bring Jack and Mel back to the front lines- and a few new characters are introduced which I’m sure we’ll learn more about in future installments of the series.  Hang on people, it gets crazy!

PROMISE CANYON had me up late reading, worried about what was going to happen to all of these wonderful people. I did not want to put this beautiful and fun story down. I also got to meet a few more new residents from Virgin River as we do with each and every book. I also love how you get to check in with the other couples from the previous books. It was also awesome to watch Lilly grow and trust Clay even though she didn’t want anything from him or so she said. I loved how Lilly and Clay finally started being honest with each other and figured everything out.

Every time I read a story from the Virgin River series I want to kick myself for not reading it sooner. PROMISE CANYON is exactly why I love Robyn Carr. It’s no secret that she has been a favorite author of mine for many years. This story is filled with twists and turns that kept me flipping the pages like a crazy woman. The characters are not perfect, always flawed and you wont be able to help yourself from falling in love with them all. If Virgin River were a real town, I would have packed my bags years ago and moved there. All of its residents feel like old friends to me and it’s always great to catch up with them with each book in the series. The only thing I can’t understand is why it took so long to make these wonderful stories into a television series. It’s going to be perfect. I’m so excited to continue reading The Virgin River series.

 

FROM GOODREADS:

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…
