The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.
Husband and I went by the house Tuesday night to grab some things I sold on eBay. It's so exciting to see progress made. At the same time, I'm disheartened every time I see how much needs to be cleaned up. I know the builders will clean a lot of the mess themselves, but the whole house needs such a deep clean. Wednesday, Baby Boy turned 6 months old. I can't believe he's halfway through his first year. He tried sweet potatoes for the first time. Bless him, he didn't seem to like them much. He didn't cry the entire time like Little Boy did. We also met with the builders to discuss cabinet layout. Little Girl got into a fire ant bed and got her entire foot covered in ant bites. Little Boy busted his lip. Wednesday was an eventful day. Thursday my mom went back to Mobile to help with Nanny.

When her parents try to force her into marriage, Anne makes a desperate attempt to salvage her last vestige of independence. If she is to marry, she will do so on her own terms.Anne strikes a deal: if she cannot secure a man for herself, she will agree to marry the husband her parents approved. She soon finds herself in the last place she would ever choose—that stifling parade of etiquette, the London Season. Anne’s plan is in motion.

Goodreads description--Katherine Cartwright knows through bitter experience that true love is fiction and trust should not be bestowed easily. Now, after two unsuccessful London Seasons, her atrocious father has decided to marry her off to the highest bidder to pay for his gambling debts, ridding himself of the daughter he never wanted. A profitable deal is struck, and Kate is packed off to the home of her betrothed, an earl she has never met. Or so she believes.When James Fenwick, the new Earl of Bowcott, learns that the girl he’s loved since childhood is being sold off like chattel, he’s determined to step in and save her. He makes an offer her father cannot refuse and insists on a proper engagement. But when Kate meets James again, her old friend cannot bring himself to admit it is him whom she is to marry. Soon, an intricate charade and a past that cannot be escaped jeopardize James’s chance at rekindling their friendship, to say nothing of winning Kate’s heart. Can love truly conquer all, or was this a match doomed from the start?
