Ryan's Return
Ryan's Return Reviews
| 112 of 114 people found the following review helpful:  I wonderful touching story., By A Customer This review is from: Ryan's Return (Mass Market Paperback) Ryan's Return is a wonderful book, a hard one to put down. Barbara Freethy tells a story of a family torn apart by scandals and secrets that can only be reunited with love. There is the story of Ryan, the town's "bad boy" and his attraction with Kara, a good girl. A secondary love story is included, with Andrew, Ryan's brother. This novel tells a story of a father who can never stop loving his younger son. Brothers once close, now seperated by misunderstanding. Its a tale of forgiveness, forgiving once parents, children, and girlfriends for the sins in their pasts. Its a tale of rising river, the fathers loves of that rushing water and Ryan's fear of the same river that makes his father and brother complete. Ms. Freethy employs the use of comic relief in this heavely emotional story. One example is the fist fight Andrew and Ryan get into that lands them in jail. Read it and I garantee that you won't be able to put it down. 32 of 36 people found the following review helpful: terrific book, By Shelly (Denver,CO) - See all my reviews This review is from: Ryan's Return (Mass Market Paperback) This has to be one of the best books I've ever read.I love the characters and the plot.Heartwarming story with a little humor here and there.If you like soaps like As the world turns you'll love this book because family matter's are the center of the story.A great contemporary romance.Read it now!!! 31 of 36 people found the following review helpful: Really enjoyable, By A Customer This review is from: Ryan's Return (Mass Market Paperback) This book was fast to read. I didn't want to put it down. I was afraid that it would be much like the other "bad boy returns" books but it was not. There was a lot going on to make this very enjoyable. |
