Virgin River fans, have no fear—if you’re craving more cozy drama, heartfelt romance, and small-town life, Sullivan’s Crossing has arrived to fill that void, and it’s already blowing up on Netflix!

If you thought the end of Virgin River’s season 6 would leave a gap in your heart, Sullivan’s Crossing, based on another of Robyn Carr’s novels, is here to offer you that same irresistible charm and emotional rollercoaster. Currently trending on Netflix, the show quickly jumped to the #2 spot in the U.S. as of July 9, beating out other fan favorites and giving Virgin River a worthy successor in the cozy romance department.

But what makes Sullivan’s Crossing the perfect replacement for Virgin River? Let’s dive into what this show has to offer and why fans are falling in love with it—just like they did with Virgin River.

🌲 The Connection: Two Shows, One Author 📚

Let’s be real: it’s no coincidence that Sullivan’s Crossing is winning over Virgin River fans. Both series are adaptations of Robyn Carr’s beloved books, which means they’re already infused with that same magic that made Virgin River such a hit. Just like Mel and Jack, Maggie and Caleb are navigating life and love in a small, picturesque town. Both stories feature a medical professional, a major life change, and the sort of romantic tension that makes you scream at your screen.

Sullivan’s Crossing tells the story of Maggie Sullivan, a neurosurgeon who returns home to rural Nova Scotia after a legal crisis. Much like Mel, she’s seeking solace in a small town, only to find much more than she bargained for—love, complications, and family drama. The beauty of the location, the small-town dynamic, and the drama of each character’s personal growth draw easy comparisons to Virgin River, making Sullivan’s Crossing feel like the next natural chapter for fans of the genre.

💞 The Star Power: Familiar Faces You’ll Love 🌟

Just like Virgin River, Sullivan’s Crossing draws you in with its cast. Morgan Kohan leads as Maggie, a character caught between her past mistakes and her journey toward healing. Alongside her are familiar faces like Chad Michael Murray (One Tree Hill) and Scott Patterson (Gilmore Girls), bringing that beloved charm back to TV. Whether you’re a fan of romance or small-town drama, these seasoned actors bring their A-game.

Murray and Patterson are no strangers to drama and romance, but now they’re stepping into roles with more depth and complexity, and Sullivan’s Crossing lets them shine in a fresh light. And with Roma Roth at the helm as the showrunner, you can expect a blend of heart, humor, and drama that’s so captivating, it feels like you’re watching a close-knit community unfold before your eyes.

Both shows explore life’s messy emotional challenges, the comfort of finding love in unexpected places, and the complexity of family dynamics.

But Sullivan’s Crossing also brings something fresh. While Virgin River focuses on the lives of its residents as they face personal battles, Sullivan’s Crossing introduces an even more intricate backstory—Maggie‘s struggle to reclaim her life after a professional scandal, coupled with a healing journey that opens doors to self-discovery. Fans who are still reeling from Virgin River’s tumultuous moments will find Sullivan’s Crossing just the right fit to ease that longing.
