Is it possible to fall in love at the sight of a wisp of jet black hair swirling out an open window of a pickup? In a thousand lifetimes, I would have said, ‘Hell no�. But today I learned not only is it possible, it’s fucking happening. To me. I’d all but given up on love but apparently, it hadn’t given up on me. When Maria Garcia McGowan stepped out of that truck, her sweet scent hit me and this cowboy was done for. None too happy to be stuck in a cow poke town like Cooper’s Mill, a brainy beauty like her will take some convincing to stick around. Even if I have to tie her to the bedpost, I’m not letting her get away. She’s mine. I’ve tamed more than my fair share of mustangs, and this sweet filly is about to be lassoed. Except, small town gossip and jealousy have a way of poking their nose into even the sweetest of happy endings. Author It takes some angry turkeys and a heck of a storm, but these two lovebirds will have you reaching for a paper fan and sucking on an ice cube to cool things off. A hunky cowboy and a whip smart city girl are just the ticket for this safe, steamy and oh-so-happily-ever-after book with everything you expect from Dani Wyatt.
Since I was a little girl, I’ve made up stories. I would lay in my bed at night and before I knew what a trope was, I would make up these trope filled stories. Boy sees girl, boys falls for girl, boy saves girl�.happily ever after. As I got older, the stories turned steamier and more intricate, but the basics never changed.
Now, my books are still full of romance but the naughty bits are naughtier, my hero’s are obsessed alpha types and my heroines are quirky, real women who come in all shapes and sizes.
So, sit back, banish the real world and get lost in some over the top romance with a heaping helping of hot. xoxoxo
I can say with 100% certainty that this was my favorite Dani Wyatt book to date.
Ranger - Who doesn't love a sexy 6'5 cowboy, who is bossy and loving? This guy was fantastic. Sweet, alpha, caring and NOT a manwhore. He fell instantly for Maria and he always put her and her needs first. I love what he was willing to do to make her happy.
Maria - To be honest, I was a little worried at first. Her inner thoughts before she met Ranger made me feel like she was going to push him away a lot and that was not the case at all. Aside from a very brief space of time ( like less that an hour) she embraced Ranger and even though she couldn't understand this instalove, she went with it.
- no cheating - no ow/om drama- a woman she worked with tried to make her jealous but she NEVER had any type of relationship with Ranger. - no violence of any nature -steamy sex scenes- a couple of spanking instances -a short epilogue 2 years out (which I definitely could have had a look further into their lives)
Ranger and Maria. Cowboy and city girl story! Super sweet and really quick read.
One glance at those eyes and it’s like the needle in the haystack jumped out and stabbed me in my heart.
I haven’t even seen all of her, or even heard her speak, but something is clutching in my chest. I’m ten feet from the ground, but I need to be down there right now.
I take two more of the wooden spindles with my black boots and push off, landing square on the ground with a thud. As I turn on my heel, my eyes fall fully on to the face of the woman that I swear was sent to me straight from heaven.
Ranger was waiting for his one for long time. And one day, she saw Maria, he knew he was ruined.
“Don’t be gone too long.� The cowboy’s voice hits me in my stomach, forcing my eyes shut for a moment.
“Bossy,� I mutter to my feet. The breeze hitting my face whips hair into my mouth, and I pull it away. “Nope. Not bossy,� I hear him say, and my heart speeds up. He must have ears like a cat. Then he adds, “Protective.�
That single last word sends heat from my cheeks to my chest. And lower.
Ranger loves her so much, not only fall in love with lust, he cared about her, and OTT when things comes to her.
“I need...� I trail off, unsure just how to explain what I’m feeling.
“More,� she whispers as I sink my teeth into the softest part of the crook of her neck. “More and more.�
“Always,� I answer into her flesh. “There will always be more for you, Maria. As long as I live.�
There was a little misunderstanding in the story made Maria feel upset but Ranger explained as quickly as possible, he wanted to make sure his girl always be happy, which was one reason I love this H!! He cared about his family, his horses in the ranch, ha loved Maria and never let her upset because of some stupid unnecessary drama.
“Now, when it comes to school...�
I swallow hard. “It’s my dream. I’ve been chasing this goal for so long.�
“I get that.� He nods, smiling. “And I want you to have everything in this life you want.� My heart sinks as I think about being away from him. And although I realize that it’s for my sake, it sinks further at the thought that he wouldn’t put up a fight to have me stay.
“So,� he continues, “if you’re going, I’m going.�
“What? No.� I struggle with the words. “You have a life here. I can’t ask you to leave. This is your home.�
“No. It isn’t. I have a life with you. My home isn’t a place. It’s you.�
When Maira was preparing to go back to school for chasing her dream, he chose to leave with her, I really love his behaviour. It was a lot for him to make this decision.
Plot was simple and easily to guess, but I still enjoyed it. If the storyline can be more interesting, it would be much better!!♥️♥️♥️
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Ranger Stoddard lives a singular life. He has his farm and his animals and there is no need for anyone else. Until, Maria Garcia McGowan steps onto his farm and suddenly his World is turned upside down. Call it fate, lust or love at first sight but Ranger knows his life without Maria would be meaningless.
A city girl who wants nothing do to with the farmlife. A cowboy hell bent on making the city girl his own. Who will win in the push and pull of love?
Holy Mother of Cowboys this book was HOT and Ranger was HOTTER. I adore this story because it showed how pure love his, that you don't need any extravagance or to jump through hundred hoops to find your true love.
It was fast paced, short, hawt and so so delicious. Dani never disappoints and she might have written one of my favourite cowboys. ~Sonal
Really love Dani Wyatts steamy reads I'v been in a cowboy kick and find Ranger a HOT Cowboy that I'd let tame me . When Ranger and Maria cross paths they both feel the electric pool that can't be stopped . The sex scenes were really steamy so be prepared to jump a cowboy and ride him hard . copy provided for honest review

I was pulled right into this story. The story has laughs, steam, and heartbreak.
This is Maria and Ranger’s story. Ranger is a cowboy. When Maria must be with her father for a business deal she is not happy that is until she lands eyes on Ranger. Ranger will do everything in his power to keep the ones he wants but will outside forces try to keep them apart? Maria is a city girl can she really want to be with a cowboy forever?
I felt I could connect with the characters and the story was a great read.
Things moved WAY too fast between this couple. However, I loved that the H was not a man-whore. It was so great to read about a H that doesn't sleep around.
I really liked Ranger. He was gone at first sight, like...gone gone. Alpha, possessive, OTT obsessed with the h. Something happened to make her try to run but he held on tight and didn't let go. Would leave his life and follow her to the ends of the earth if that's where she went. Loved that. Virgin h, celibate H-never a ONS type of guy No abuse No OM drama, Very minor OW drama but not someone that H ever had anything to do with. Epilogue at 2 years later.
How could I not love this book?? It had everything a romance needed. A Hot Alpha male that knows what he wanted and lets nothing stand in his way. A sweet but snarky heroine that does not take crap from anyone. Read this you will not be disappointed.
For me, this is the best "insta-connection, heat, lust, love, forever" book I have read by far!!! The sexual tension felt in many of these scenes is almost tangible, with numerous occasions reminding myself to breathe because I got so caught up in the moment! The writing by Ms. Wyatt, throughout the book, her use of language is the best I have seen her write, to be honest. This is more about insta-love, its heartache, fear, stubbornness, determination, and soul-mates. I read this story three times in a row before writing this review because I enjoyed the book in its entirety. Please don't overlook this book because of the "insta" part you will be missing out on a marvellous story!! I would give it more stars if I could!!
This is one swoon worthy cowboy story. Ranger is pure alpha cowboy and he knows exactly what he wants. Maria. This is actually a short novella but still full length story if that makes sense.
Think you have read a story with insta love before? Think again. This is the fast food equivalent of a love story. It was spicy 🌶� and I enjoyed it nonetheless.
PS: I would say this is safe. H has been celibate for years, h is a virgin. Both obsessed with each other. No cheating.
SADDLED is about a hardworking cowboy and an innocent city girl who has just recently relocated to his small town accompanying her Dad. Once Ranger saw Maria , he was immediately obsessed with her and he didn't expect that he would easily fall in love because all he ever did was work and care for animals, especially the broken ones. But Maria has unleashed the alpha-male lover in him and he made it his mission to keep her saddled up to him wherever they may be.
This book was extra hot with an over the top alpha-male hero. It's a quick read but thoughtfully well-written, as usual (because Dani Wyatt is one of the best), and completely satisfying. I LOVED this book, hard!
I have read an advanced copy of this book and this is a fair and honest review and recommendation voluntarily shared.
Loved this sweet story of love and fate! Ranger is definitely an Alpha male that goes after exactly what he wants, and doesn't second guess himself no matter what. Maria soaks up every bit of love Ranger has to give too. Definitely worth the read! I received this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
This was a hot little number! Ranger and Maria were perfect together. Ranger knew from the second he saw her that Maria was the one for him. He was over the top and possessive from the start. Ranger was celibate for years which is the next best thing to a virgin H!
Loved This! This was a quick hot steamy read! The storyline was sweet and it was full of everything you can expect from a Dani Wyatt story. Instant Lust/Love and 100 swoon worthy dirty mouth Cowboy staking his claim! Ranger & Maria's chemistry and banter is perfection.

Even now, as my whole body rears and bounces against the bathroom wall, I can think of nothing but how much I love him.
He moves in and out, holding himself against me, then moves more. Faster, then slower, as his eyes remain on mine. When his mouth opens and the tension on his face mounts, the look of hunger sends me spinning. The base of his cock pulses along with my orgasm, filling my body once again with his seed.
˥︎ My pulse races as he pushes his fingertips upward, under my skirt, until they are able to dance on the outside of my already damp panties.
“Open your legs.� That gravel-road voice elicits a helpless sound from my throat as his fingers apply downward pressure against my slit. I can do nothing but obey, already following his directive and spreading myself open for him.
My eyelids flutter as he brushes up and down on the outside of the crotch of my panties, creating just the right amount of friction to make my body hum. Slowly, up and down, up and down until I’m ready to come apart. I grip the edge of the table as his lips brush the lobe of my ear, his tongue flicking out and lapping at the soft, sensitive skin as he whispers, “You are a good girl. My good girl.�
