FIANCE BY FRIDAY
The Weekday Bride Series, Book Three
By Catherine Bybee
Publisher: Montlake Romance
Pub. Date: August 13, 2013, First Edition

Review:
I was first introduced to author Catherine Bybee's works last year with Not Quite Dating and she has become one of my new favorite writers, so I was more than eager to review the third book in the The Weekday Bride Series titled Fiancé by Friday, which I received free of charge in exchange for my honest thoughts.
Gwen Harrison's life hasn't exactly been average as she is technically referred to as "Lady" since her father is an English duke! After her brother married, she took over her sister-in-law's business, a matchmaking firm called Alliance, where she helps the high-class find the perfect match. She has started to feel like a normal human being since moving to America, but then her brother sends her surprise - a bodyguard.
Neil McBain's years as a marine has helped me become the head of security for the Duke, but he has finally met his match, that is with the Duke's sister Gwen, who he is instantly attracted to. He is a man of few words and tries to do his best to ignore his feelings toward his new client. Strange happenings occur, dead birds suddenly appear, the security system goes wacky, and the neighbors seem to be a bit odd.
Is someone after Lady Harrison? Or is Neil's deadly past coming out of the shadows?

Though it sounds overwhelming and
perhaps even impossible, returning to college as your little ones
mature is a growing trend among mothers. If you are seriously
considering returning to school, earning a degree from South University, or entering any other
bachelor’s or master’s program, then there are a few things you
will need to know before your first day of class. So grab your cup of
coffee because more than likely you will be drinking several thousand
more cups between now and graduation.
Planning
Enrolling in school can sound
frightening at first. There are course numbers and books and
registration fees. But the first few days of class can prove some of
the biggest shocks as you read through the syllabus and wonder how
you will be able to finish all the reading in time.
But realizing that the transition back
into a semester will be daunting and take time is key to keeping your
cool. Take advantage of the fact that the syllabus is passed out on
the first day and get to work right away. A planner or other daily
calendar can help you to allot specific study times so that you will
be able to visualize when the work can get completed in time before
the due date.
Most likely, you will be learning many
new skills as you return to the classroom. Whether you are attempting
an online class or a traditional course, you will become familiar
with online blackboards and file sharing for different classes.
E-textbooks and interactive study programs are also popular. So allow
yourself time to learn how to navigate these sites and adjust to the
environment.

Ever since I switched to a domain and had the blog redesign, I have had many opportunities to work with many different companies and brands. That being said, my blog is becoming more than just a book blog, therefore I believe a few changes need to occur, but I need some input from my readers. A blog redesign won't happened until later in the year or in early 2014, so it wouldn't interfere with the 31 Days of Halloween & and the Holiday Gift Guide events.
I need your help readers:
One of this year's biggest summer movies, Now You See Me, will be available for Digital Download on August 30th and it will be arriving on Blu-ray Combo Pack (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Digital HD UltraViolet), DVD + Digital UltraViolet, Video on Demand and Pay-Per-View on September 3, 2013. The film has a star-studded cast featuring Jesse Eisenberg (Zombieland), Mark Ruffalo (The Avengers), Woody Harrelson (Zombieland), Isla Fisher (The Great Gatsby), Dave Franco (21 Jump Street), Michael Caine (Dark Knight Trilogy) and Morgan Freeman (Dark Knight Trilogy).

Four magicians, J.

During a magic show in Las Vegas, the four amazes the audiences by remotely robbing a bank in Paris, which quickly gets the attention of FBI Agent Dylan Rhoads (Ruffalo) and his Interpol detective Alma Dray (Laurent); though they have know proof how the magicians robbed the bank.
