When I moved in with my sister over summer break, I had no intention of returning to college in the fall. A work trip for her meant a lot of time alone for me with her husband. Boone Stanton.

Can't keep my mind off of him. It's in the way he works around the yard, sweaty and shirtless. Then one night, I see something I shouldn't. Something that makes my mouth water and my heart race.

That is until a night out of town with too many drinks finds me naked and sweaty with the one person I shouldn't be rolling around in the sheets with.

When I arrived at my cousin's wedding, I knew two things. One, I'd have to face my overbearing aunt and walk down the aisle with a smile on my face and shoes that hurt my feet. Two, it'd be over before I knew it and I could get back to doing what I loved, rehabilitating horses. But everything changes when I get to the bed-and-breakfast where the wedding weekend is being held. Most importantly? I get to be bridesmaid to not one groomsman, but two. Oh, and did I mention they are both handsome cowboys I'd fallen in love with a long time ago?
