Harvest Moon

The recipe for happiness: making it up as you go along.

Rising sous-chef Kelly Matlock’s sudden collapse at work is a wake-up call. Disillusioned and burned out, she’s

retreated to her sister Jillian’s house in Virgin River to rest and reevaluate.

Puttering in Jill’s garden and cooking with her heirloom vegetables is wonderful, but Virgin River is a far cry

from San Francisco. Kelly’s starting to feel a little too unmotivated … until she meets Lief Holbrook. The handsome

widower looks more like a lumberjack than a sophisticated screenwriter—a combination Kelly finds irresistible. But less

appealing is Lief’s rebellious stepdaughter, Courtney. She’s the reason they moved from L.A., but Courtney’s finding

plenty of trouble even in Virgin River.

Kelly’s never fallen for a guy with such serious baggage, but some things are worth fighting for. Besides, a bratty

teenager can’t be any worse than a histrionic chef … right?
