And the bride wore...running shoes?
Publicly shamed by her former fiancé, Lady Chelsea Ashford Alden has fallen from grace and her intimate life has become fodder for the British tabloids. On the run from the paparazzi, there’s only one place for the errant aristocrat to wait out the scandal: her best friend’s cottage in Celebration, Texas...
Instead of foiling a burglar, rancher Ethan Campbell startles a gorgeous blonde in the bathtub! Chelsea covers up...her true identity. But not her sizzling attraction to the tall, dark and hunky cowboy. Ethan has loved and lost, and until Chelsea, he never thought he’d love again. But he doesn’t know her secret, and if she reveals the truth, he might be the one to run this time around.
“If you know Juliette so well, why did you break in?”
“She was supposed to leave me a key, but I couldn’t find it.”
He squinted at her. “Where was she supposed to leave it?”
“Under a planter. She wasn’t specific, and, as I said, I couldn’t find it. That’s when I saw the open window—”
Ethan held up his hand, silencing her.
“Just give me your cell phone.”
“I don’t have it on my person.”
His mouth twisted in a dubious expression and he grunted. “On your person? I’ve been giving you the benefit of the doubt. If you don’t want to cooperate, I can call Joyce back and we can sort out what’s what down at the station.”
He held out his hand again, this time moving his fingers in a “give it to me” gesture.
“It’s in the car.” Now he was starting to irritate her. “I’m certainly not hiding it.” She ran her hands down the silhouette of her body to emphasize that she was wearing a T-shirt and a rather snug skirt that didn’t leave room for secret pockets.
When she realized that Ethan Campbell’s gaze was meandering the same path her own hands had traced she regretted issuing the invitation.
Celebration, TX: Love is just a celebration away...

Lady Chelsea Ashford Alden cast a wary glance over her shoulder as she approached the front door of the gray stone cottage.
The place looked dark and formidable—cold and utterly unwelcoming—like it didn’t want to be friends. It was so contrary to her university roommate Juliette Lowell’s
