Maybelle Winchester has made a successful career out of giving brides the day of their dreams on her family’s legendary Hitching Post Ranch in Wedded Bliss, Wyoming. But when her former high-school rival opens a new wedding venue just down the road, Maybelle finds herself stretched thin in a struggle over the small town’s limited wedding resources.

After years in the army, Channing Stone has come home to Wedded Bliss reformed from his reckless past and hoping people can forgive his many mistakes. Between caring for his grandma after his grandpa’s death and working as a mechanic on the Winchesters’ ranch until he can open a shop of his own, he’s on the right track. But the town doesn’t have as short a memory as he hoped.

A wedding ceremony gone awry is hardly how Maybelle expected to come face-to-face with Channing for the first time since high school, but it’s difficult to deny the sparks that quickly kindle between them—sparks the Winchester family seems all too eager to snuff out. As tensions escalate, can they find their own path to wedded bliss, or are they destined to remain only friends?

With sweet romance and memorable characters, Jody Hedlund writes a swoony-worthy contemporary cowboy romance set against the backdrop of Wyoming’s Bighorn Mountains.
