Synopsis

Review
I've been looking forward to reading this book for sometime now since reading Married By Monday.
Fiance By Friday is part of a series of books by Catherine Bybee based around a friends or a group of people who are brought together by love. This story is based on Gwen who is a daughter of an English Duke, she is rich and pampered but lovable. She falls helplessly in love with Neil who is a retired marine, a man of few words in love with his boss's daughter: Gwen. This story follows their journey to happiness.
These books has many funny, sexy moments which make you realize what a talented author Bybee really is. She balances romance, mystery and indulgence without being too cheesy and over the top. With any other author at the helm, these characters would have been contrite and unlikable but Bybee manages to bring humanity and feeling. I must admit I'm not murder mystery kind of girl but I was invested in the characters so much that I was able to read the entire book.
She writes stories that are sexy, indulgent but also gripping. I'm look forward to reading the next installment in the series.

Thank you so much for the review. I'm so happy you enjoyed Neil and Gwen's story. I'm looking forward to your thoughts on Karen's story next.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued by Karen and her potential future husband. I wonder whether Gwen and Neil have a baby in the next book? Now that would make me smile.
