The Wedding Crasher and the Cowboy by Robin Bielman

When Kennedy's ex calls her from his bachelor party in the middle of the night,  drunk and having second thoughts about the wedding,  and then he won't answer her calls or texts,  she's determined to help. He and his fiancée El are perfect together,  so she crashes the wedding set at an inn on a working seaside ranch asking with her best friend Andrew. Unfortunately,  she didn't realize the ranch was owned by the family of her college nemesis,  Maverick Owens. And after he overhears her reason for being on the ranch, he decides to keep an eye on her so she doesn't ruin their reputation as a wedding destination. A week with her nemesis doing all kinds of pre-wedding activities while trying to get time alone with the groom for a chat... this could be tricky!
Romance characters are the absolute worst at communication.  If only they'd sat down and talked about their issues... but then there'd be no storyline.  That being said,  I love how loyal Maverick is to fulfilling his promise to Nicole. Kennedy's fun-loving character and competitive streak really bring Maverick out of his depression and she sees a different side of him on the ranch than she did as her competition at college. I thought the side characters were hilarious and really rounded out the whole story,  especially Andrew. Did I see a hint of a sequel with Mavericks brother Hunter?!!
