Blog Tour Book Review, Treasured by Thursday by Catherine Bybee





I'm excited to be a part of this tour, not only is this another one of Bybee's amazing reads, but it is also the last in her Weekend Bride series, a series I have loved from the very beginning. 



Release Date: September 18, 2015
Published By: Montlake Romance

Series: Book Seven in the Weekend Bride Series

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Book Description:
The seventh and final tale in the dazzling, heartwarming, 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.

It is always with a heavy heart that you have to say goodbye to a much beloved series. Very bittersweet when you are both excited for the last read and dreading it because, after it, there is nothing else left. No more lovable characters. No more swoon worthy romances and friendships to rival all others, no more anything.

So it was with a touch of sadness that I went into Treasured by Thursday by also a whole lot of excitement as well. 

Excited to get Gabi, Valentino's sister from the last book's story and of course Hunter's, after all, who can resist a bad boy with a reputation to match?

Heartwarming, endearing, and full of wonderful moments, this truly was an ending that was every bit as satisfying as I was hoping as the lives of all the characters from the series came together full circle.

This truly has been such a fun series and one that I am so glad I took a chance on. Bybee knows how to write a swoon worthy romance filled with sexual tension, chemistry, and those heart pounding moments that all us romance junkies live for.

It is definitely bittersweet saying goodbye to this series and all of it's fabulous characters.
