π‘Ίπ’˜π’Šπ’‡π’• 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒍𝒆𝒅 is the second book in the 𝑹𝒆𝒃𝒆𝒍 𝑩𝒍𝒖𝒆 𝑹𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒉 series and I liked it more than 𝑫𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑫𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒅. I found it to be more warm and cozy, and that's probably because of Wes. He was an absolute sweetheart, kind and patient and so hard not to adore. 
The story at the ranch picks up a few months after the first book, where Teddy put Wes in contact with Ada, a designer, to renovate the old Big House, which was Wes's project. I'm not usually a fan of instant love, but I think it was done well. You could feel the attraction between the two characters and I liked how they opened up to each other. I dislike nothing more than miscommunication, and I'm glad that was not the case. Even though she assumed a few things about him in the beginning, Ada got to meet the real Wes and vice versa and their love story was cute. 
I also enjoyed the whole "found family" feeling, I like how close they all are and the beautiful and healthy relationship they all have, with their father, their siblings and their friends.
