When I saw Ann was putting out a small towns single dad x nanny book I was ready. I knew I was gonna enjoy the book, but I did not know I was going to enjoy it this much. I read Wrangled Love almost in one day. Briar and Jensen were my top couple Ann has ever wrote. The way Jensen’s life got flipped upside down within one day and she wrote him to be able to man up right I loved. The connection Caleb and Jensen had and the struggles they had to work through were so well done. When we got to Bluebell I just fell right in love with the story, I loved how everyone was there for Caleb and Jensen right away. They knew he needed help to figure out what he was going to do, but also knew he wanted to work on it himself. I loved the FMC, Briar she was such a powerful and funny woman throughout the book. The relationship throughout the story may of been a slow burn, but it still was spicy and fun to read. The connections Briar had with Caleb and Jensen was fun to read, and I loved reading all about it. This was such a well done book, and I know I will love this series! 🥰

If you like your cowboys with a soft heart, your small towns full of charm, and your romance sprinkled with fainting goats and unexpected family feels—Wrangled Love is your next must-read.
When Jensen, a NYC tech CEO, learns he’s a father to a grieving five-year-old son, he trades boardrooms for barn boots and returns to the Montana ranch where his found family raised him. Enter Briar—his best friend’s little sister, all grown up and full of sass, warmth, and the kind of nurturing heart that makes even the quietest little boy feel safe again. As she becomes Caleb’s nanny (and possibly Jensen’s biggest temptation), porch swing moments turn into steamy Ferris wheel kisses and the beginnings of something real.
This story delivers the perfect blend of sweetness, swoon, and emotional depth. With tender found family moments, single dad vulnerability, forced proximity, and all the small town charm you could want, Wrangled Love hits every emotional note. Caleb will melt your heart, Briar will quietly steal it, and Jensen—once he trades his suit for cowboy boots—will have you falling hard and fast.
This book felt like a warm hug and a starry night rolled into one—and I cannot wait to head back to Bluebell.
Swoony line:
“You have a beautiful soul, Briar Halstead. Thank you for loving my son as much as I do.”
I received an ARC copy and wanted to leave an honest review.

Wrangled Love completely swept me away—between the slow-burn tension, steamy moments, and witty banter, I couldn't put it down. Jensen and Briar’s story had my heart from the start, and I felt every emotion right alongside them.
I can honestly say this was my first cowboy romance and it was soooo cute!! Ann delivered cowboy Halmark vibes with this one!! It was a real emotional story with five-year-old Caleb loses his mom and meets his dad Jensen for the first time. They both move back to Jensen’s hometown Bluebell, Montana when Briar enters their lives.
Everything about this was super cute! I do with there would have been more romantic suspense/sexual tension…. Buttt this definitely delivered all the laughs and tears! I can’t wait to get more of Silver Saddle Ranch.

This one had my emotions running while reading. Might of cried a couple of times. When you head back to a town you wanted nothing to do with because of your past, end up living for the summer with your best friends sister who also becomes your nanny for your son you’ve just found out about is a lot. But thank goodness for a family that has always had your best interests at heart. Such a great book to start out this series.
This book was adorable!! A hot cowboy, a cute 5 year old little boy, and a fainting goat! This one definitely brought a smile to my face!
Jenson is a CEO for a company he started in New York. His world is flipped upside down when he gets a call that he is the father of sweet little Caleb. He is 5 years old and after his mother past away he stopped talking. Jenson dove head first into fatherhood and tried his best to be what Caleb needed. He decides to go back to his roots and take Caleb to Silver Saddle Ranch. He moves in with his best friends sister and she is just what these boys needed. Briar is patient and kind and the love she offers is just as beautiful as she is.
The mutual love that Jenson and Briar had for Caleb was just the sweetest! These two put his needs above everything and to see him bloom on the ranch was so incredible!! I loved Briar and her group of friends! Their group chats had me cackling! I enjoyed Jenson and Briars connection as well! It was a perfect pace and the love and respect they had for each other was so beautiful. The found family was amazing in this one! And the stinking goat! I giggled every time he fainted!
