Commentary Concering Books Shelter Mountain (Virgin River #2)
For the second time in a year a woman arrives in the small town of Virgin River trying to escape the past. John “Preacher” Middleton is about to close the bar when a young woman and her three-year-old son come in out of a wet October night. A marine who has seen his share of pain, Preacher knows a crisis when he sees one—the woman is covered in bruises. He wants to protect them, and he wants to punish whoever did this to her, but he knows immediately that this inclination to protect is something much more. Paige Lassiter has stirred up emotions in this gentle giant of a man—emotions that he has never allowed himself to feel. But when Paige’s ex-husband turns up in Virgin River, Preacher knows his own future hangs in the balance. And if there’s one thing in the marines’ motto of Semper Fidelis—always faithful—has taught him, it’s that some things are worth fighting for.Identify Books Toward Shelter Mountain (Virgin River #2)

I second your review. The side stories made me disconnect with the main characters so much, that I Dnfed it as well.Quick review...Love how Preacher is such an unconventional man...big, shaved bald, ex marine who now is a cook in his buddy's bar, and perfectly fine with his life. Love even more how instantly protective he is of this woman and little boy.This book danced the edge of brutal in the abuse department. There are no allusions...this punk comes after Paige with a vengeance, and right in the middle of Virgin River. Big no-no there! She's under the protection of not only Preacher, but the whole town.
If all the books in this series continue to flow and have such memorable characters as these first two books, I will have no choice but to give every single one of them 5 stars. Very easy to read and follow.
Promising. Destroyed. This book was so promising. Centering around H/h, John Preacher Middleton, a quiet, shy, reserved military vet and Paige Lassiter. Paige shows up at the door of the bar John and his partner own and run. It is raining, she is carrying her 3 yr old son, and it is raining. She is also sporting a split lip and a bruised cheek and many more bruises you can't see but external and internal. On the run from her abusive husband, she finds solice and comfort from an unlikely person
Losing friends in...5...4...3...2...1... 2.5 stars. Yes, I know. Everyone loves Virgin River. Yet again, I've found another train I won't be jumping on. *cue sadface*I didn't read the first book, so my opinion of the series is only from book 2. Shelter Mountain was a buddy read that I couldn't pass up because of a dear friend and my curiosity to learn about this person's similarities to a character in the book. And that was the best part of reading - getting to see this person's book
Very enjoyable series. I'm listening to this on audio and the narrator does a really good job.
I'm not really going to review this one too much. It's good. The story is very engaging and hard to put down. I think this series would be better described as a 'serial'. It's like a soap opera. There's been a romance in each of the first two books, but so many other stories are being told that it's like watching an ongoing, multi-threaded show. Hence my likening it to a soap opera. Not that I'm disappointed in that. I'm enjoying it very much. I had a very hard time not just going straight into
