Contemp Review: Hidden Summit (Virgin River) [Mass Market Paperback]




I've finished "Hidden Summit" the 14th book in her Virgin River series by Robyn Carr.

Product Description

Sick of running into her cheery ex-husband and his new wife, Leslie Petruso accepts a job at the Virgin River branch of Haggerty Construction and takes the high road right out of town. Now she's got Paul Haggerty's business running like a well-oiled machine. In fact, things are so busy Paul jumps at the chance to hire an extra set of hands.

Just like Leslie, Conner Danson has been burned by love. But if Leslie was disappointed by her relationship going bad, Conner was decimated. He's got no time for women … although he spends an awful lot of time pretending not to notice Leslie. And she's pretty busy "ignoring" the chemistry between them.

According to Conner and Leslie, they have only one thing in common — they're done with love. But everyone in Virgin River can see that things are heating up at Haggerty Construction. And as far as Paul Haggerty can tell, the best thing he can do is hang on to his hard hat and watch the sparks fly!

My Review:

Leslie Petruso has moved to Virgin River to get away from her cheating ex-husband and his new pregnant wife.  His happiness at having a child with his new wife gets to her because he never wanted one with her.  He has changed and wants to be friends and still take care of her but she's had enough of his stalking and accepts a job at Haggerty Construction as an office manager.

Connor Danson (aka Danson Connor) has had a horrible marriage but has a bigger problem.  He's the only witness of a murder in Sacramento and his hardware store is burnt to the ground.  He's gone into witness protection and they have sent him to Virgin River to work at Haggerty Construction.

The chemistry between Leslie and Connor was hot and I really enjoyed the dialogue between them - it was hilarious and fun.

It was great to visit old friends and it was a delight to see Brie taking a more active role in this book.
