Nestled on the Oregon coast is a small town of rocky beaches and rugged charm. Locals love the land’s unspoiled beauty. Developers see it as a potential gold mine. When newcomer Hank Cooper learns he’s been left an old friend’s entire beachfront property, he finds himself with a community’s destiny in his hands. Cooper has never been a man to settle in one place, and Thunder Point was supposed to be just another quick stop. But Cooper finds himself getting involved with the town. And with Sarah Dupre, a woman as complicated as she is beautiful.

Publisher's Summary
RITA award winner Robyn Carr’s Virgin River novels are beloved by countless fans. This newest edition to Carr’s wholesome series will have listeners eagerly following each word as a new romance unfolds in the magical town of Virgin River - this time, during the holidays.
Critic Reviews
Featured Article: Virgin River—The Definitive Explainer
Before it was adapted into a Netflix show, Virgin River was a series of more than 20 novels by New York Times best-selling author Robyn Carr. The audiobooks, all read by Audie Award-winning narrator Thérèse Plummer, are well-loved by a wide audience. The series takes place in Virgin River and revolves around new resident Melinda Monroe, a nurse practitioner and midwife. There's more to this sleepy town than first appearances suggest.

Ok story... Excellent narration
This book was just ok for me. I guess it just focused too much on guys hunting and then a big snow storm rather than the hot passionate romance I expect from Robyn Carr. The romance starts to develop about half way through the book and there is not much conflict to keep the story interesting. It does have a nice christmas theme and the ending was very sweet so I recommend it as a nice christmas listen.
Narration: I love Therese Plummer as a narrator. I'd probably listen to a dictionary if she were to narrate it. She has the ability to make distinct voices for each character as if there were more than one narrator. She did an excellent job with this story!

Least favorite of all the VR books
Let me start by saying I adore the Virgin River series...but this one was lacking. The main story happened all too quickly, and everything about that relationship seemed so one note. I loved re-visiting all the other characters, Jack, Mel, Preacher, and Paige...those parts of the book were fabulous...but Denny and Becca's relationship lacked emotion for me.
Regardless...it won't stop me from getting the next book in this series...I love that town, and the people that live there!

Delightful easy reading
Would you consider the audio edition of Bring Me Home For Christmas to be better than the print version?
I Love all of Robin Carr's books and keep them close to listen to over and over. They tell a story of a large family individually and as a group and I feel like I know them all. I cry for the sorrow in their lives and speak to them for the occasional bad behavior. I am their best cheer leader. I love the fact that the good guys wear white hats and you always can get involved in whatever story she sets out to tell. The reader is delightful and entertaining and I love listening to her as much as I love the story. Great listening for me. Her audible books take the place of TV for me.

I've read some of the less than positive reviews and I have to say that they do hold some truth but.... I just finished grading final papers--it was a joy to close the grade book and listen to Therese Plummer's voice taking me back to Virgin River. Wonderful Christmas Present! Merry Christmas to All!

formula, but it works
Robyn Carr has a formula in these books. One big, strong, handsome man is lonely but may not realize it, and ready for love but certainly doesn't know it. One sweet, good-hearted, petite and beautiful woman who wants a man that is ready for real commitment. They both find themselves in Virgin River - often with friends in common The rest is history. They fall in love, and start planning their future children. The books are sweet, cozy, warm. Nothing here will surprise you, but they will entertain you. You get what you are hoping for here. Good people who fall in love.
My biggest complaint about this series is that because each volume involves a new romance, the characters I really care about are virtually nonexistent in the future volumes. I would love if there was more follow up on the characters who are already in Virgin River.

Heartwarming story in the Virgin River series
What made the experience of listening to Bring Me Home For Christmas the most enjoyable?
The story is interesting, humorous and stirs the emotions. I could relate to the likable heroine. She had a lot of guts and personality.
What other book might you compare Bring Me Home For Christmas to and why?
Other books in the Virgin River series. They share the setting of a small town in the mountains, Redwood forests and caring people with values we admire.
What about Therese Plummer???s performance did you like?
She one of the best. Flawless storytelling, great voice.
Who was the most memorable character of Bring Me Home For Christmas and why?
Jack is such a charming, likeable person. I loved how he looks out for the townspeople.
Any additional comments?
All the Virgin River books are good, but this one is a favourite. I worried about the ending until the last minute. Robyn Carr is unbeatable.

Sweet Read
This was a sweet Christmas read. Very predictable, but one of those books that I like to read once or twice a year. Before she gets engaged, Becca, the main character, needs to find out if she is ready to take this step in her life. At this time of year, this type of book is always enjoyable, and Robin Carr is expert in her delivery.

SO much arguing and jealousy ...
and then there's the humiliation of the main female character, who for some reason, the author thought it would be funny to finally have the main female plainly state her position, and then get out of the truck and do a face plant into a water filled ditch.

Got better near the end
This was very nearly a 2-star DNF for me. None of the characters were appealing at the start. Not Becca nor Denny. Especially not the douche boyfriend and the controlling mother. But then. the children got into the picture and the community banded together for the less fortunate and I was hooked. It's the dang Hallmark Christmas movie formula except with more sex.

Predictable, boring, and no substance
I love the VRS but this story seemed to be more of the same in regards to showing the town's folk to be the all encompassing heroes in helping! However, whilst we all like the characters such as Jack, et al, this was a boring story with no substance other than an excuse to tick the box to fill the space required for a teacher! you can skip this book and not lose out as a result. The narrator is, as usual, very good.
