With a big anniversary party in the works for his
ex-wife’s parents, Ryan has just one weekend to play Abby’s
husband . . . and win back the woman of his dreams.
Ryan McKinley has
tried to move on from his ex-wife, Abby. He’s sulked, he’s gotten angry, and
ultimately he bought her dream house. Big mistake. Living alone in the massive
two-story has only made him miss her more. When her parents call him out of the
blue about their anniversary party in Summer
Harbor , Maine , Ryan
believes God has dropped a golden opportunity straight in his lap.
Abby McKinley never
exactly told her parents about the divorce. A strained relationship with her
dad has culminated in a distant relationship with her parents, but she’s
finally succumbed to her mom’s pressure to make the drive for their
35th-anniversary party.
Then Ryan shows up
on her doorstep, looking as handsome as ever. When he insists he’s going to Summer Harbor ,
with or without her, Abby knows she can’t say no. Her parents still think
they’re married and now Ryan knows it too. It’s just a one-week road trip with
the man who broke her heart. What could possibly go wrong?

MARRIED ‘TIL MONDAY
is the fourth book in this series. It stands alone, but fans will want to read Barefoot Summer, Dancing With Fireflies, and
The Wishing Season to get the rest of
the story about the family.
Denise Hunter is one
of my very favorite contemporary romance writers, so I went into this book with
high hopes. It took me awhile to get into this story; it was slow, but steady.
The writing was impeccable, as per usual, but I never connected with the characters
the way I wanted. Abby was complicated—we were shown that all the way through
the book, but in addition to pushing away her ex-husband, she pushed away me as
a reader. Ryan was wonderful, sweet, kind, slow to anger (though he did get
upset a few times) and quick to defend his ex-wife. I loved his persistence.
4 stars. Available in ebook, print, audio, and MP3 cd. 320 pages.
I obtained this book from the publisher in exchange for my
honest review.
