Reconsidering Riley

Rating:
Summary: Don't even consider Riley
Review: I did not enjoy this book at all. I felt it was an insult to women everywhere. I did not feel anything for Riley and Jayne and the silly way the heroine was portrayed was insulting.

Rating:
Summary: amusing romance
Review: Jayne Murphy is urban chic standing on top of the world with her best selling relationship book, Heartbreak 101, that uses her sorrowful experience with photojournalist hunk Riley Davis. Jayne fell in love with Riley, but he did not miss a heartbeat as he skipped town without a look back. Her current project is a retreat workshop for five "dump-ees" that she plans to use for her next self-help book.

However, the tour guide turns out to be clueless Riley who does not realize he is the model starring in Heartbreak 101. Neither one expected the other at this retreat, but there is no question that urban Jayne and wilderness Riley have different opinions on life yet both desperately desire the other. With no common ground except love, this second chance seems doomed to failure once again.

Lisa Plumley is gaining a deserved reputation for her amusing romances and her latest tale RECONSIDERING RILEY, will strengthen her standing among sub-genre fans. The story line is a delightful fluff that is fun from the beginning, but really hooks the audience at the retreat. The key to this comical, at times slapstick, romp is the cast. The two charming lead characters and the support group turn the novel into a marvelous merry mirth.

Summary: A true opposites do attract romance!
Review: Reconsidering Riley by Lisa Plumley Is truly a opposites attract novel Jayne Murphy is your typical "girlie-girl" her whole wardrobe consist of her favorite color baby blue and she can not go anywhere without her bath products. What happens when Jayne an author of a self-help realtionship novel Heartbreak 101:Getting Over The Goodbye Guys decides to hold a retreat for some of her fans who are affectionately called the dump-ees and her ex-boyfriend the subject of her book is leading the group Utter and Complete Chaos!!

Riley Davis Jayne's ex doesn't know that he is the man who inspired her Heartbreak 101 novel and is even more surprised when he founds out Jayne is the author he takes it upon himself to help "get over the bozo" that made her write the book. He proposes a plan to Jayne they can have a "fling" for closure Jayne agrees but she has conditions. But Riley gets more then just his casual fling.

My first read by Lisa Plumley and it was very enjoyable. Riley and Jayne are great characters and their romance was very touching and heartwarming some of my favorite parts are the workshops that Jayne holds for the "dump-ees"Riley not knowing what to do during the workshops decides to conduct his own workshops it is truly hilarious. I found myself laughing throughout this novel. I have now become an instant fan of Lisa Plumley
