Plot details:
Season four begins with a cold and snowy winter in the Virgin River where Jack, Mel, Vicky, and the kids are adjusting to life after Rick’s death during last year’s fire at Jackson Construction. With Steve around most days helping as their builder again, there is a sense of optimism returning to Virgin River.
The first storyline is about the return of old friends and foes from the Virgin River as they come together for Lucas’ trial, with dark secrets revealed that drastically change everyone’s lives.
Luke spends much of his time in Virgin River this season trying not only to keep up with construction at Jackson Construction but also to balance being a father and uncle again. He is now the sole guardian of his niece Denny who was left in Virgin River when her mother died during childbirth; he knows there are plenty of dangers on Virgin River’s winding roads for an eight-year-old girl with no family other than him.
Luke has had trouble staying sober since the death of his wife, and Virgin River’s idyllic setting proves an easy temptation. When he learns that Denny has been sneaking into bars with Gus, Luke tries to get her on track by buying a horse for her. But when she’s caught riding it in Virgin River after dark one evening, she ends up being taken home by Virgin River’s sheriff.
Faced with the prospect of taking Denny away from Virgin River, Luke searches for ways to help her stay on track when she starts rebelling against his rules; he realizes that winning over her heart is just as important as keeping her safe. If danger doesn’t claim Virgin River this season, then perhaps a little love might.
