Robyn Carr seems to know a lot more about food. (The pronunciation of dressage was also irritatingly incorrect.) She should take a lesson from author Diana Gabaldon (Outlander) and do a little more research. There is no way someone who rode barrels for awhile as a kid will look like they have been riding dressage their whole life.

There were all kinds of crazy, dangerous interactions with horses that were just stupid and full of misinformation. I was disappointed that the author didn't at very least take time to find out the differences in horse colors, or the differences between harnesses, bridles halters and other tack. There are horse whisperers, there are many that are well known, but they use actual techniques not mind reading. I especially disliked the representation of the author's version of a 'Horse Whisperer'. It also stopped where it could have been more interesting.

I looked forward to the Native American aspect of it but it just wasn't as good as some of the others. I just felt this particular book in the series was a little shallow and fell short. Let me start by saying that I love this series and this author.

As Mel is reminded by her past (say, when her sister-in-law drops in for a surprise visit during season 2), she unveils the truth about what really happened to her husband, including why she still blames herself for his sudden death.I'm a horse lover and wanted to love this one. But even in a town that thrives on small town gossip and secretive romances (hint, hint, Doc and Hope), there's still a big mystery about Mel's (played by Alexandra Breckenridge) past that has fans talking: What happened to her husband, Mark (played by Daniel Gillies) ?įrom the very start of the show, it's been evident that Mel has experienced a tragic loss of her own: Her husband Mark died shortly after the loss of their baby. The drama in Netflix's Virgin Rivergets bigger and better by the episode.

As more details are uncovered throughout the show's second season, fans are looking for answers about how Mark really died - and if Mel was involved in any way.

In season 1, Mel revealed that her husband's death was her fault - but viewers didn't know much more than that.

In Virgin River season 2, Mel is dealing with the aftermath of her husband's death.
