There's an old saying that you should marry your best friend. Well in one sense Jazzy did marry her best friend Ace Riley. Since Jazzy came to town and opened her cafe Ace had dropped by pretty often and not always for a bite to eat. More often he came to see his good friend and bend her ear. His life was a series of one night stands and the one person who seemed ignore his lack of good judgment was Jazzy. So when Ace found himself in a tight spot who else to turn to but Jazzy. It seems his grandfather had not left the ranch free and clean to Ace, there was a condition that had never been revealed and as luck would have it time was not on Ace's side. He had a week to be married or the ranch would go to one of his cousins, Cole. Ace was beside himself, he knew that Cole was just going to sell it, while Ace wanted it to remain in the family. Jazzy knew there had to be something they could do, and so in bestfriend fashion she offered to marry Ace for the year needed to satisfy the will. Of course there were lots of rules if this was to work. No friends with benefits, separate bedrooms and most importantly this was to remain a tightly kept secret just between the two of them and Cole. Equally important was Ace's promise of celibacy and keep his wondering eye under control. Their plans were tumbling faster than a wall of dominoes and those rules were going to be put to the test.

Before long the whole town, their families and practically just about anyone knew. It was a big surprise since no one thought they'd been dating. Jazzy or Ace had ever pictured themselves as a couple but if they were being truly honest they admit to harboring a secret attraction that they wouldn't have acted on. Well now all bets are off. They are going to share a bedroom, celebrate their marriage in front of their families, and pretend to be a loving newly married couple. Ironically this is not all an act since the more time together it becomes obvious that the attraction is real and strong. Perhaps at the end of the year face a life together rather than a divorce. Lots to contend with and all this will surely test their friendship, hopefully they will decide that friendship brought them together but love will keep it everlasting.

In true Carolyn Brown fashion love becomes the prize of a hard won battle of wits. A cast of incomparable characters help make each scene in ONE HOT COWBOY WEDDING come alive with humor. Of course you are hoping for a happy ending but the voyage is so entertaining that you just don't want it to end. Another page turning joy of a book by an engaging author.
