A sweet charade takes an unexpected turn!

Dearly beloved, we are (not) gathered together…

Maid of honor Zurie Tillbridge has been working secretly with best man Mace Calderone to plan her cousin Tristan’s wedding to a well-known actress. To keep their wedding plans from leaking to the press, Zurie and Mace must pretend they are the ones getting married. Cake tasting and flower arranging seem like harmless fun…until wary workaholic Zurie realizes she’s feeling something real for her fake fiancé…

My review:

The Cowgirl’s Surprise Match is the third book in the Tillbridge Stables series. It’s the first book I have read in the series and I don’t feel like I missed anything by not reading the first two books. Although after reading this book, I’ve put the other books on my TBR list. The book was paced perfectly, easy to read, and had that “can’t put down” factor. The characters were charming and easy to connect with. Zurie Tillbridge was happy when Tristan, her cousin announced his engagement to a famous actor. She needed a break from work and organizing his wedding while keeping it a secret from the media was just the answer for her. She would be helping Tristan and get a break from work. Mace Calderone was happy to help Zurie with the wedding arrangements. His family was pushing him to take his law exams and move to Nevada to work in the family firm. Zurie putting a time limit on their relationship was fine with him because he would be moving right after the wedding. Pretending to be engaged to keep the wedding a secret, allowed them to spend time together and keep the media away. Neither of them expected to want the fake engagement to be real. Mace must decide if giving up his future with the family law firm is worth risking love for.
