Contains major spoilers for “Virgin River” Season 4.

Our favorite bad boy from “Virgin River” is having a coming-out party of sorts in Season 4.

Oh, and his clothes; he’s definitely stepping out of his clothes with decided regularity.

Of course, we suspected that this season would be big on romance for the character.

First of all, yes, just.

But also, why remote control candles, specifically?

“After the massage and uh, something else,” Hollingsworth shares, “I’m exhausted.

I don’t have time to go blow out candles.”

We totally get it.

He needs to save his energy for Season 4.

In an interview withUs Weekly, the actor discussed the challenges of prepping for the sexier character arc.

And, as we begin Season 4, we’re seeing a continuation of that trend.

Plus, we’re emotionally upended once again when Brady is stabbed in prison and rushed to the hospital.

But she also rekindles the flames of their tumultuous love affair and finally discloses how much she loves him.

This sets into motion a bad boy sexy-whisper-a-thon that we’re thrilled to share lasts all season long.

And that tone is a hushed, breathy whisper.

Here’s the playbook.

Brady and Brie share an intimate chat, and the vulnerability is palpable.

And then, Brady will lower his voice, touch her face, and say something swoon-worthy.

I’m right here.

Everything’s going to be all right."

The music builds as Brady gazes down at Brie and then does the classic two-handed face clutch kiss.

They make their way to the couch all entangled with one another while the dramatic music builds.

His stab wound is covered with a bandage, and a worried Brie asks if it hurts.

And then he whispers, amidst a dramatic pause in the music, “not enough to stop.”

What the sweet hell?

What kind of sultry sorcery is this man serving up?

We’d tip our hat to you, but we must pick ourselves up off the floor first.

If Brady whispers sweet nothings in the woods, will we still swoon?

Brady sheepishly agrees to wear a Pied Piper-style hat, much to the giddy delight of Brie.

But, it’s not all court jesters, Meade, and merrymaking.

So, we start to wonder if there’s trouble on the horizon.

Instead, we’re gifted another scene where Brady delivers a hushed verbal caress.

But be warned, it involves cotton candy.
