Publisher Description
A kindhearted librarian gets more than she bargained for when she sets out to find the man of her dreams—by the book, of course—in this charming novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber.
Jayne Gilbert longs to attend her high-school reunion with a handsome man on her arm. Still single ten years after graduation, Jayne wants nothing more than to prove her former bullies wrong. The only romances in her life are those she reads about so, at the encouragement of her coworker, a determined Jayne decides to do her research.
As Jayne prepares to teach herself how to land a man, an encounter with her neighbor Riley Chambers quickly changes everything. Just when she believed she’d be alone forever, Jayne finds herself falling for Riley in ways she never expected. But Riley is just as bold and mysterious as Jayne is prim and proper. Opposites may attract, but are Riley and Jayne built to last?

Couldn’t finish it...
I’ve never read any books from this author before...unfortunately I also couldn’t finish this one. Main character is supposed to a 27 year old in Portland, Oregon and I might believe that if the book was meant to take place in the 60s or something, but as a 29 year old myself who has spent a lot of time in Portland, this was unbelievable. Even awkward people don’t speak and act as old timey like these characters do. It prompted me to check the authors age, which I’ve never done before. I made it to 43% through the story, leaving to read other books and coming back numerous times, but it’s just not for me. 3 stars because I’m sure some people will like this, it’s not poorly written or anything, just not believable for me.

Disappointing and a waste of money. No real climax or character development. I’ve always loved Debbie MacComber books, but seems like the new ones are cranked out without much thought.
