Sam runs Alliance, a matchmaking service dedicated to bringing people together, whose life plans match rather than with any romantic aims. The shortest and the most problematic book in the series, Wife by Wednesday introduces us to Sam and Blake, whose friends and families will make up the central characters for pretty much the whole series. This being Romancelandia, some of those carefully matched couples can’t help falling in love in spite of the rules, of course, and that’s part of the fun of the series. On the other hand, I do like the central premise of the series as a whole: a matchmaking service that places couples together on entirely non-romantic criteria. The first book in particular made some glaringly wrong assumptions about the British aristocracy and inheritance laws, most of which could have been quickly fixed by Googling (My review copies of the first two books were the self-published versions and I noticed that the errors had been fixed in the third and fourth books, so maybe the republished first two have had the same fixes applied). I really shouldn’t have enjoyed this series as much as I did. Stevie’s Duckies Do Series review of The Weekday Brides Series by Catherine BybeeĬontemporary Romance published by Montlake Romance
