SYNOPSIS
The seventh and final tale in the dazzling, heartwarming, and pulse-racing Weekday Brides series.
Gabriella Masini: She’s a woman haunted by her past, with the scars to prove it. She believes that fairy tales are for other people. An elite matchmaker at Alliance, she’s great at crunching numbers, but something doesn’t add up with her latest prospective client: a billionaire bad boy with his own secrets. When Gabi refuses to be his temporary wife, Hunter forces her hand with an offer she can’t refuse. But marriage to a man like that could never last…or could it?
Hunter Blackwell: Only his bank account is bigger than his ruthless ability to obtain anything he wants. These days, he has a secret reason to settle down, at least for a while—and he thinks the sensual and sassy Gabi will fit the bill perfectly. But when their marriage of convenience becomes downright dangerous, Hunter must decide how far to take his vow to honor and protect Gabi forever.

REVIEW: TREASURED BY THURSDAY BY CATHERINE BYBEE
Treasured by Thursday by Catherine Bybee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Out of heartbreak and pain comes happiness and love. It took a while to get there but it proved worth the wait. Hunter started off a toad who became a prince. Willing to do whatever necessary for what had become his most precious acquisition, Gabi. Gabi stumbled into her rainbow after years of dark clouds and rain. I have not had the pleasure of reading the other books within Catherine Bybee's The Weekday Bride series. I am going to love experiencing it from the beginning. Treasured by Thursday is a story of sacrifice, understanding and learning when to let go. Touching story of hope. I received an ARC of Treasured by Thursday in exchange for an honest review.

"A charming small town filled with inventive characters and sweet romance." --Jill Shalvis,New York Times bestselling author

Wedding Matilda by Heather Hiestand
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Wedding Matilda consists of drama, suspense, romance and surprises. Ewan never thought much about his lot in life. He was grateful for the things he had and not yearning for what he didn't. In the blink of an eye all of that changes with a shocking revelation. Heather Hiestand has written a story that is revealing and sweet but it is also a good read. Received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

LAID OUT BY SIDNEY HALSTON
Release Date: August 18, 2015
SYNOPSIS
Perfect for fans of Monica Murphy and Cecy Robson, Sidney Halston’s scorching new MMA romance proves there are no holds barred when it comes to seduction.
As an Army brat, Violet Channing could never meet her dad’s high expectations. But in the eyes of her best friend, she could do no wrong. He even insisted that he should be her first kiss. Now Cain Sorensen is all grown up, hardened by years in special ops and always looking for a good fight. Tall, with striking blue eyes and impossibly blond hair, he’s a modern-day Viking warrior. Of course, Violet’s all grown up, too, and she’s ready to surrender to his every command.
Cain knows he’s bad for Violet. His work is dangerous, and his hobbies are downright deadly. As a private mercenary and a mixed martial arts fighter, he could never let such an innocent soul into his world. And yet his most grueling combat training is no match for Violet’s killer curves, hot touch, and suggestive glances. Now all of Cain’s most explosive fantasies are coming true—but once they cross the line between friends and lovers, there’s no turning back.

REVIEW: LAID OUT BY SIDNEY HALSTON
Laid Out by Sidney Halston
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Ever girl's fantasy. Violet and Cain's relationship started out sweet. As a teen lacking confidence Violet could always count on Cain to lift her spirits by encouraging her to be herself. He was her white knight, her safe place when she felt like she didn't belong. Fast forward to adulthood. Cane has always harbored secret feelings for Violet but he refuses to act on them. His secret has lead to a broken heart and he refuses to lose Violet as a friend. Laid Out is a sweet look at the course that love takes from youth to adulthood. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Sometimes actions speak louder than words.

REVIEW: FAN THE FLAMES BY MICHELE DUNAWAY
Fan the Flames by Michele Dunaway
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
A promise to a friend becomes more than two friends imagined. Scarlett and Brad are each dealing with lost. Fulfilling his promise to Scarlett's husband and Brad's friend to look after his family should have been a no brainer. However it's proving harder to do when attraction starts to take hold. With guilt, lust, anger and pain boiling to the surface will Brad be able to keep his promise? Or will he hurt the people that are starting to mean the most to him and walk away? With Fan the Flames I already knew how the story would turn out halfway through it. A good story without any surprises. I received an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review.
