A Virgin River Christmas: Last Christmas Marcie Sullivan said a final goodbye to her husband. This year she's come to Virgin River to find the man who saved his life and gave her three more years to love him. Marcie's letters to marin Ian Buchanan have gone unanswered, but she's tracked him to the tiny mountain town. As Marcie pushes her way into his reclusive life, she discovers a sweet but damaged soul beneath a rough exterior. Ian doesn't know what to make of the determined young widow who forces him to look into the painful past and, what's worse, the uncertain future. But is is, after all, a season of miracles, and maybe, just maybe, it's time to banish the ghosts and open his heart.

Under the Christmas tree: With snow falling over the redwood forests, secluded Virgin River is the ideal place to spend the holidays. Each year, the close-knit community gathers in the town square to decorate and light a massive tree. Carols are sung, hot chocolate is shared -- and this year, a surprise is about to bring two special people together. When the townsfolk discover a box of adorable puppies under the town's Christmas tree, they call local vet Nathaniel Jensen for help. But it's his budding romance with Annie McCarty that really has tongues - and tails - wagging.
