Saddle up, because π™’π™§π™–π™£π™œπ™‘π™šπ™™ π™‡π™€π™«π™š is a beautiful ride. While it’s undeniably a romance, at its heart it’s a story of healing. It gently reminds us that it’s okay to hurt in moments of loss and disappointment, but it’s just as important to lean on the ones we love to help us find joy on the other side.

Jensen and Briar were such a lovely pairing. I especially appreciated how their strengths complemented each other and how the usual roles were quietly subverted. This story may come with a cowboy, but it is just as much a cowgirl’s tale. 

Caleb’s story plays out gently in the background, complementing Jensen and Briar’s relationship rather than competing with it. As a mother, I found myself deeply moved by his moments of growth and vulnerability, and I appreciated how naturally his storyline was woven into the heart of the book.

Einerson continues to shine when it comes to her side characters. I absolutely loved the banter between Walker and Heath, the passionate quirks of Birdie, and of course, the steady, warm presence of Mama Julie.

Wrangled Love is the first installment in the Silver Saddle Ranch Series and will be available on Kindle Unlimited and in Paperback on Amazon.

If you're a fan of cowboys, single dads, small-town settings, character crossovers, or a good brother’s best friend romance, you’ll want to make space for this one on your shelf.

⚠️ Mentions of cancer, foster care, absentee parents, adoption, gambling addiction, and parental death.
