Reviews

[Linda]

Married by Monday follows the same characters I met in Wife by Wednesday, even if there was a different main couple. There was a little bit of mystery added here, and I really enjoyed myself!

I have to say, I thought the whole wife of convenience thing was sort of silly, but so far, I like the series. I am a character driven reader. If I like the characters, I usually will buy into the story. I am also a fan of companion novels. I always want to know what happened after the epilogue for many characters. These companions give me a chance to revisit prior characters, while getting more involved with secondary characters. With that said, I greatly enjoyed Married by Monday. Eliza's story was so unexpected and I thought raised some interesting questions about a system I know little about. This story was a little different from the prior book, in that our MCs have known each other for several years, felt sparks, but never acted upon them for the sake of preserving their common friendships. Eliza and Carter had great chemistry, in my opinion, and I kind of loved him. Carter seemed so one-dimensional, but as his layers were slowly revealed, I fell more and more in love with him. Again, Bybee gives me what I expect (laughter, little bit of tears, swoons), but this book had a few extras that definitely added to the story.
