blurb: We got to know the residents of Grace Valley. Grace Valley is set in California, near the Humboldt, Mendocino, and Trinity Counties. This is only a few hours away from where I live? Grace Valley is a very small town, where every knows each other and watches out for each other. Some of the main characters in this book were Tom Toopeek, June Hudson, her dad Elmer Hudson, the Craven family, and John Stone. John is new to Grace Valley and he's the OB-GYN. June has doubts about him in the beginning and suspects he has a past that includes Sexual Assualt charges,. Luckily, discovers she was wrong. June meets Jim, an undercover DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) Agent who shows up once in awhile. Gus Craven is an abusive father and husband, and his wife ends up killing him in self-defence.
personal thoughts/opinions: I must say I was a bit disappointed. I liked the Virgin River Series muchbetter. I will definitely read the other two books. I wrote out a list of all the characters so I could remember who's who (in another entry).I really did like all the characters though....well except for Gus Craven. And I noticed there sure seemed to be a lot of blame and accusation going on?
What did you like best about the book? I like the small town feel and how everyone knows each other.
What didn’t you like about the book? I noticed there seemed to be a lot of accusation and blame going on in this book.
