BLURB ➞
After drinking a bottle of wine, Harper tells her business rival that she recently got engaged. Once the hangover wears off, Harper realizes she now needs a fake fiancé or to admit she lied. Wanting to avoid the backlash, she asks her childhood best friend for a favor.
She can pretend she’s not in love with him, but her traitorous body reveals otherwise.
Ethan Bishop will do anything for Harper, even if it’s crazy and means risking his heart. Pretending to be engaged to the woman he’s always loved proves to be difficult—especially when repressed feelings bubble to the surface.
He only wants to help, but everyone in his life sees through his façade.
It’s hard to know what’s real or fake when their private moments turn intimate. When they cross the line and fall between the sheets, the truth is undeniable.
Just as they feared, their friendship’s no longer the same. However, one thing’s certain—there’s no going back now.
**Kissing the Cowboy is a complete stand-alone and can be read without reading any of the other books or spin-off series, but if you prefer to read in order, start with Hitching the Cowboy as the characters and families do interconnect. Suggested for mature readers only.**
It’s not supposed to be this way – me falling for my best friend and not doing a damn thing about it.
ARC REVIEW ➞
Harper and Ethan have been best friends since they could walk, they have done everything together, except share their true feelings about each other. Everyone could see they were perfect for each other, but they always denied it. Until Harper had too much to drink and may have told other small business owners that she is engaged.
I loved the friendship between Harper and Ethan. You could feel that they truly are best friends, that they would do anything for each other and will always be there for each other, however, there is also a ton of chemistry between the two of them. So many times throughout their story I just wanted them to give into that chemistry and the tension that was brewing between them.
Harper and Ethan’s friendship and relationship was full of ups and downs but you can’t help but root for these two to find their happily ever after with each other. They may be one of my favorite couples at Circle B Ranch.
If you’re looking for a fake relationship, friends to lovers, small town, cowboy romance this is one to read.
