enjoyable read,
Wife by Wednesday – grabs you from the title and pulls you into a wonderful tale of an arragned marriage…well more of a business contract. Blake needs a wife to fulfil the terms of his father’s will and gain his inheritance. Sam agrees but neither of them expect keeping the contract to be as hard as it is.
In this story, Ms. Bybee has brought to life two engaging characters, a conniving villain and a series of obstacles which leave you turning the pages with eager anticipation to find out what happens next. The first non-historical one I have read, it’s no less engaging than her time travel books. If you love those, then this one is not to be missed.

|Delightful yet surprisingly believable romp,
Blake Harrison is the modern day heir to a very old, titled English inheritance. An inheritance that his departed Father saw fit to rescind if Blake is not married by the age of 35. Sam (Samantha) Elliott is an all-American blue blood born with a silver spoon but down on her luck. Her one chance at making her high-end match-making business successful has finally arrived in the form of one very rich, very English power-player, Mr. Blake Harrison. What follows is an absolutely delightful yet surprisingly believable romp through the machinations that is modern day love and society.
If one has ever wondered whatever happened to all those Dukes and Earls from our favorite historical romances, look no further! In “Wife By Wednesday”, Ms. Bybee has successfully taken the ever popular regency tome’ of titles, heirs money and inheritances, transplanted it into contemporary society and turned it on its ear! The writing is down-to-earth, girl-next-door readable, the dialogue quick, witty with just enough snark to make it pop and the romance is a sweet, slightly steamy treat! It’s pure escapism, feel good fun that makes a reader happy for the pure pleasure of indulging.

|Wonderful Read,
OMG! Wife by Wednesday, was such a wonderful emotional book. The attraction between Sam and Blake was so real. I was angry, cried and was laughing at every page. This was a well written story and I loved it. I can’t wait for another book to come out from Catherine Bybee, what a great writer that holds the readers interest untill the last page and then wanting more. Great read!
