Madison Bellini grew up with everything only to discover it’s not what she thought it was. Fleeing her rich family and unfaithful fiancé she heads for someone she thinks can give her the information she needs to clear up the debacle the her wedding turned into. What she finds is a very sexy cowboy who doesn’t know who she is or what she’s talking about. Ty Kirkland has Madison’s palms sweating and pulse racing, but not because she’s angry with his involvement with the mess she’s run from. No he’s got her so aroused she can’t think straight. Blowing a fuse and storming out, she takes to road like a mad man.

Ty Kirkland can’t believe he’s just blow it big time. Knowing he has to stop Madison before she contacts her father and destroys his last hope of getting a big contract, he races out after her. Watching her drive her car off a bridge he dives in after her to pull her free. When she appears to have lost her memory he claims to be her fiancé, solving all his problems. If she thinks they’re getting married she’ll help him get the contract he needs and his money troubles will be over. The only problem now is he can’t keep his thoughts off Madison or their fake engagement. With his libido revving he finds himself spending more time with her and wishing for the fake engagement to be real.

When I picked up The Bride Wore Boots I thought it would take me a couple of days to read. Wrong. I couldn’t put it down. From the first page I was engrossed completely. J.T. Schultz has a style that grabs you and drags you in. Humor is mixed throughout the whole book and I found myself laughing out loud several times. There’s a good mix of drama as well as the humor. Their chemistry is hot and their encounters hotter. The tangled web of lies both Ty and Madison tell gets more and more complicated and the tension of waiting for one of them to drop the ball is tight. Without having read any other work by J.T. Schultz I can’t say whether this is her usual style but I’m more the willing to find out. This book kept me in my seat all afternoon and once I was finished I walked away with a sense of loss. I was really sad to put the book down. The best compliment an author can have is for her book to be read again and again, and that’s what I’ll be doing with this one.
