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.

My Thoughts…
I am sad to say that this series is now officially
over. The Weekday Brides Series by
Catherine Bybee has always been a series of sweet romance books that I knew
would make my heart beat faster, my eyes tear up, and keep me awake late at
night having to keep reading. With
each book I met new friends, were reacquainted with old friends, and fell in
love with the male heroes.
In Treasured by Thursday we learn the rest of Gabi’s
story. When we left her in Seduced by
Sunday she had just moved to the states after a disastrous marriage to a drug
smuggler. I felt for her then and
still had those feelings picking up her story. I was excited to jump into her story and
find out if she could ever trust again, if she could find happiness, and most
importantly if she could find love.
When Hunter comes into her work the sparks flew. The attraction was obvious, yet the
weariness from Gabi was expected. While
I did not love that she had to give in to Hunter, I loved that Hunter seemed to
want to show her respect from the beginning of their relationship. He did not push her to give more than what
she was willing and accepted what she was willing to give.
I felt like this was the perfect ending to the series. Catherine Bybee tied up the loose ends with
the other characters, letting the reader know what they were up to while not
taking away from the main characters.
Each couple from the previous books made an appearance while adding to
the current story.
This is certainly a series that has to be read. I recommend reading the books in order but
each can be read as a standalone also.
