4.0 out of 5 stars Likeable Main Characters, November 23, 2000

By 

Barbara O'Neill - See all my reviews

This review is from: Raffling Ryan (The Chandlers Request...) (Silhouette Romance) (Paperback)

What impressed me the most was the likeability of Ryan and Janna

Ryan Chandler's grandmother and meddlesome matchmaker, Allie, decides it's high time her grandson get out and live life a little. After marrying off her two granddaughters, Allie's next victim is Ryan. And what better way to shove him out into the world than at the Bachelor Auction hospital charity event. And in order to ensure success, Allie picks out Janna Monroe (widow and mother) from the bidders and `helps' her along in the form of a check to make the winning bid.

As the story progresses, we watch Janna learn to love again and Ryan change from a boring corporate businessman into a warm and loving man, whose heart opens up not only to Janna, but to her young son, Zachary. Ryan's first attempt at grilling is hilarious, even if the outcome was not.

I found Ryan and Janna very appealing. I did not find Almira Chandler likeable at all. From her scheming to the way she spoke to others, I found myself wanting to reach out and strangle her. I wasn't particularly fond of Mrs. Ballantine (the housekeeper) either.

Ignore the interfering grandmother and crabby household help. Focus on the story of Ryan and Janna and you won't be disappointed.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ryan needs a course in home improvement., March 22, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Raffling Ryan (The Chandlers Request...) (Silhouette Romance) (Paperback)

Ryan gets raffled off at a charity auction to a woman who wants odd jobs done around her house. He manages to set fire to her kitchen. He then offers to give her and her son a place to live while repairs are being made. There is no sex in this book, some humor and two annoying characters--the grandmother and housekeeper. It's not a bad book, just not very interesting. There is almost no sexual tension and Ryan's character needs to loosen up.
