The Sheriff and the Nanny

Rate this book
Cynthia Kent is a burden. She's tried to help her sister and brother-in-law, but most of her efforts have ended up in disasters of varying degrees. She's depended on their charity for too long and it was high time she started taking care of herself. But how? Tyler Shelton is a widower with two young children. As the sheriff, raising two children alone while handling his important job has pushed him to the breaking point. He's taken everything one day at a time, but his family is suffering and they need help. Tyler is used to giving help to others, but not asking for it. Struggling as a father, he makes sure his job as sheriff doesn't suffer even though his children do. Cynthia finds joy in a job she never thought she'd ever have. She doesn't really like children, so how Sheriff Shelton's children stole her heart is a mystery. Even though a courtship is unlikely, she starts falling for the handsome and brave hero of the small Nebraska town. The sheriff is too busy keeping law and order while waiting for a notorious bank robber who is rumored to be on his way. Too much is on the line for Tyler Shelton to take his attention away from his job when life and livelyhoods are on the line. Can these two people in need be an answer to prayer for each other? Will God give them the patience and strength to get past each other's flaws to find true love? _______ HERO HEARTS is a multi-author series featuring both historical westerns and contemporary Christian romance.

Cynthia Kent has moved in with her sister and brother in law since her father has passed away. But the more she helps the more things go wrong and she knows she needs to get out on her own.

Tyler is the sheriff of the town and has two small children that need to be taken care of. His wife has passed two years ago. Cynthia goes to meet him and gets the job as his nanny.

Cynthia has a rough time at first with Cissie as all the child wants is more time with her father. Bobby is a sweet boy who takes to Cynthia right away. When both kids start to love Cynthia, Trixie jumps into the picture wanting to have Tyler court her. But what about Cynthia and her feelings? The we have a bad man coming to town that Tyler needs to help with.

A quick and lovely read about two people who need a second chance. The characters were done well and you wanted to find out what happens. There are some funny issues with a frog and drink on a dress. A fun read.

Loved It

I am a big fan of historical romance. This book was awesome. Cynthia moved out west to live with her sister and brother in law after their father passed. She love her sister but she want a home of her own. Tyler the sheriff is trying to take care of his children after his wife passed and watch over the town. He needs help. He needs a nanny. This book has a father and two children that are grieving, a young woman who he trying to fine her way, and a bank robber that is headed to this small town. If you love this genre you will enjoy this.

Quite a Switch

Cynthia went from being a hindrance in her sister's home to running a home efficiently and working with two children once she accepted the job of a nanny. The author did a good job of portraying the characters, especially the children, as Cynthia realized what the children suffered from and worked to resolve it. A sweet ending.

Very enjoyable to listen to and a very enthralling story too, before I knew it, the story was finished and I was left going, oh I wanted more.

The narrator had a very nice way of delivery that kept me entertained and waiting.

Really worth the read

I received this as a complimentary copy and I am giving my honest review voluntarily

Historical Western Romance

As usual after reading an Annie Boone book I have no words to describe the joy I get from reading another of he books. This book is about a young woman who can't retain a job. This job is her last resort. Keep reading and enjoy the book!!!!!!!!

Good

This is my first time reading this author's book. It was a good story. I wish the ending would have been longer or had an epilogue
