Summary: Not Riley in the Morning, Riley all the time
Comment: This story started out with Riley and it was Riley all the way through. We went from his sudden appearance at the birthday party she was giving for a big shot (and after being separated for seven months) to his attempted reconciliation, all the way through the book. Her flash backs of how they met and married were cute. The story was almost typical Brown. First they were lovers, then married, then separated for along time and back together again for a happy ending. It's hard to imagine Riley calling someone Dim Whit and they would adore him. I thought the story had zero plot and not one character really grabs you. Maybe because there aren't many characters except Riley and Brin. This one was published in 1985 and is a reprint. It isn't new writing by Brown. Brown can write nice descriptive love scenes, but the overall story lacks suspense. It doesn't keep you enthused about turning the page because there was no doubt about what would happen at the end. I read the story in one evening. This is my third or fourth book by this author and I'm still not excited.

Summary: Audio Version
Comment: I listened to this book on tape. As other reviews below state, it is about Riley and Brin, a couple separated that talk about past events throughout the story to get to the root of why Brin left Riley. I would much rather have read the book because the woman that read the story was too sugary for me even in scenes where Brin was mad. 'OHhhhhhhhhh Riley! Give me a break. I won't listen to any more tapes narrarated by that lady Alison. She ruined the story for me.

Summary: Alot can happen in approx. 12 hours!
Comment: If you are looking for a quick read with lots of passion that can be read in one evening- you might try this one. Brin is a very successful TV producer while Riley, her husband of a little less that 2 years, is a celebrated morning talk show host. But there were problems and after time Brin needed to escape for her individuality's sake. So for 7 months they have been estranged. Now Brin is having to make a decision whether to divorce Riley and take an offer of a life time to produce an up-coming show that is a producer's dream- she has until tomorrow to decide. She is hosting a semi-formal birthday party for her boss when Riley shows up wanting to discuss what the problem was in the marriage. Not taking No! NOT RIGHT NOW! as his answer he works his way into the evening of events- causing it to be an evening of flashbacks, passion, hurt, and love for Brin and himself.
Yes, Riley was a jerk at times- but since we have jerks in real life shouldn't there be jerks in romance novels, too?! And, yes, it was corny at times- but fun. Another sweet romance to read in one evening.
