A year’s worth of novellas from twelve inspirational romance authors. Happily ever after guaranteed.
As far as Kelsey Wilcox is concerned, her last cowboy was the last cowboy.
Kelsey Wilcox has had enough of cowboys. After the last one broke her heart, Kelsey traded in her boots for flip-flops, and the open range for a bistro on the beach. Her life on Corpus Christi’s gorgeous beach might be a little lonely, but at least it’s heartbreak-free. At least until her cousin’s beachside wedding bucks Kelsey right back into the rodeo.
When unlucky-in-love Brent Corbin packed his groomsman’s tux for his friend’s wedding, he brought his boots and belt buckle with him. Brent isn’t exactly looking for love, but when he sees what appears to be a mermaid in distress, he jumps right in to rescue her.
So Kelsey finds herself plucked from the sea—and certain-drowning—by a gorgeous groomsman . . . in soaked cowboy boots. She’s quick to say thanks, but no thanks.
Brent dedicates the weekend to pursuing Kelsey—and Kelsey spends the weekend trying to deny an obvious match. She’s as stubborn as a wild horse, but Brent’s determination may tame her yet.

Summary
An August Bride is part of the year of Weddings Novellas. Admittedly I wasn’t sure if I was going to like Kelsey in the first couple pages. She seemed very selfish. I was very glad I stuck with the book. I loved it when Brent pulled her out of the water thinking she looked like a mermaid. The descriptions were so vivid I could see her in the gold dress looking like a mermaid. The three older ladies were hilarious and made the story. Brent was adorable and worth sticking with the book. The main storyline was that Kelsey has been burned by a cowboy and had sworn she would never date another one. To make matters worse she had to see her dad lose his ranch. So when she meets Brent and finds out he is a cowboy she doesn't want to give him a chance. Brent is willing to wooo her.
