Two old friends, a bachelor auction and a wedding in the mountains of
Montana equals what turns out to be a romantic weekend and possibly the beginning
of so much more.
Synopsis:
Bachelor Gavin Clark is
determined to help Marietta reach its fundraising goal for the town's hospital
charity. So the handsome emergency physician is up for almost anything on his
date with the lucky winning bidder.
Little did he know his former
high school crush, Ally Beaumont, just so happened to be that lucky winner.
Their date whisks them off to her friend's destination wedding at a romantic,
luxury ranch resort in the western Montana mountains and close quarters, a
shared history, and a magical location push the two old friends into each
other's arms...
Is Gavin and Ally's story
just beginning, or will their romance end with the weekend?
Excerpt
Ally glanced up to see the four bachelors looking down at the crowd from the landing above the main room. Damn they were hot, and each in their own way. But Gavin? There was something about him—strong, quiet, brilliant—the man had it all, and it was nicely wrapped up in a dark-haired, hazel-eyed, six-foot-four-inch package of gorgeousness.
There was a squeal from a table near the stage, and Ally saw Mandy Pryce and her mean-girl friends looking over the program and then glancing up at the landing. Jenny Gaston was with them, but she wasn’t looking at the guys. No, her wicked baby blues were trained right on Ally. Honestly, considering the trouble she caused, Ally was surprised Jenny even made eye contact. But always having more nerve than conscience, Jenny was behaving as she always had—like an entitled brat. She lied and manipulated people to get close to Gavin, and Jenny didn’t care who was hurt in the process.
Looking up at the guys one more time, Gavin was surveying the crowd, and Ally’s breath caught just taking him in. He was thirty-one to her twenty-nine, and once upon a time she’d dreamed of being with him forever.
Gavin had that effect on women. He was probably doing it right now, without even knowing it, casting his spell over the crowd. Ally—practical, focused Ally—was falling deep into the romantic well. Just looking at Gavin made her ache.
Some things never changed.
Without warning, Gavin turned his head and his eyes locked on hers. He froze. She could see his posture go rigid right where he stood. His face, stony and hard to read, made Ally reconsider her entire plan.
The last thing she needed was an angry cowboy on her hands.
No. She couldn’t second guess herself.
Ally needed him, and there was no one else she could trust to play a convincing boyfriend, while keeping things platonic between them.
He was still staring at her, and in the excitement of the moment, she smiled at him. She couldn’t help it.
The problem was he didn’t smile back.

Quotes:
“Gavin tugged
at his cuffs, before flashing a devastating grin. Confident and sexy, without the cocky edge,
there was a collective gasp as every ovary in the place exploded.”
“… he couldn’t
help but love her confidence. It had
become her most attractive feature.”
My
Review:
A lively, sexy,
and sweet second chance love story laced with humor, banter, and fun. I liked the fun and sassy characters from the
beginning, even when they frustrated me and I wanted to give them a smack with my
kindle. This is a quick and easy read
with a satisfying and feel good ending.
