Rate this book
In diesem knisternden, historischen Westernroman verlieben sich zwei draufgängerische Cowboys in dieselbe Frau und wetteifern darum, wer letztendlich ihr unschlüssiges Herz erobern wird.
Nachdem die temperamentvolle Abigail Rose von ihrem Verlobten verlassen wurde und dadurch in Ungnade gefallen ist, schwört sie, sich nie wieder zu verlieben, egal wie verlockend der Mann auch sein mag. Als sie auf eine Anzeige stößt, in der ein Kindermädchen für ein Waisen-Baby weit draußen im Montana-Territorium gesucht wird, beschließt sie, ihren ruinierten Ruf hinter sich zu lassen und weit weg von ihrer Heimat Philadelphia einen Neuanfang zu wagen.
Doch als sie in der aufstrebenden Grenzstadt Twin Forks, Montana, ankommt, stellt sie bald fest, dass ihre neuen Arbeitgeber zwei umwerfend aussehende Cowboys sind. Die Zwillingsbrüder wollen ihr zeigen, was es bedeutet, eine Frau zu sein. Da sie nicht ahnen, welch tragisches Geheimnis Abigail in ihrem Herz birgt, verstehen sie nicht, warum sie keinen der beiden je heiraten könnte. Dennoch werden die beiden Brüder nichts unversucht lassen, das Herz der Dame ihrer Wahl für immer zu erobern.
Dieser historische Liebesroman ist nicht nur voller leidenschaftlicher Momente und glühender Liebesszenen, sondern verspricht auch ein Happy End für Abigail und ihre beiden feurigen Cowboys.

Probably more like 3.5 stars.

Storytime: so I was feeling down yesterday. Decided to read something while eating my lunch at work, and picked up Red Rising by Pierce Brown. It's been on my TBR for awhile. Well, anyone that's read Red Rising can tell you that was a big mistake. I got a few chapters in and was crying at my desk. I had to find something else to read, stat. I remembered the romance books I picked up for free on my Kindle not too long ago and thought I could find something lighter to read in there. I'm not going to lie, I picked this one because it looked and sounded the most ridiculous. And I mean that in the nicest way possible. I needed some ridiculousness in my life yesterday.

Well, I was disappointed. It was not ridiculous.

It was, without a doubt, exactly what I needed to read yesterday. Cute, light-hearted, and well-written. Also spicy. I didn't need spice to make me feel better, but I don't want anyone tricked into thinking its an innocent book. It's not.

Also my first foray into menage, which I found interesting. I've been trying to expand my romance genre horizons and I think this was a good intro to menage.

I finished it after work, so definitely one that I didn't want to put down. Overall, good book. I recommend it.

This is a really nice story to read. It is based in the 1890's where things are a bit different, where men can be experience, but if a woman has experience, her only thing she will be good for is a fallen woman. This also takes place in Montana during the old mining days where there were 20 men for every female, but at least all the women were treated well. The characters are very well developed, with the view points from all involved. The story about her scandal comes out in bits and pieces and everything works out in the end.

Abigail, Abby to her friends, is from a well to do family in Philadelphia. When her fiance takes advantage of her and then dumps her, he lets it be known that he has broken it off from her because two men came up to him and told him how then had been with her too, so she is marked as a fallen woman and a gold-digger. Her reputation is in ruins and even her family believes the lies. The real reason he broke it off with her is that after he took advantage of her, she let him know that she is barren, she can never have children. She finds an advertisement for a nanny in Montana and applies. She uses the last of her funds to get there and hopes that they won't send her back because she is only nineteen without any real experience as a nanny. She has taken care of babies and children but not as a nanny. Then she sees the town which is a bunch of shacks of both businesses and fallen women. The men that hired her were twins who were looking for a nanny for their orphaned nephew.

James and Daniel have lived on their ranch their whole lives. It was first their grandparents, one was an Indian, and then their parents, and now theirs. Their older sister and her husband were running it until they passed away last spring from an illness that went through their town. Now they need a nanny to take care of their beloved nephew, Chris. They tried to take care of him themselves, but they need to be working the ranch and they don't know anything about children. They have tried two other nannies, but they didn't even last a week each. When they get to the train station to pick up the latest nanny, they knew that what she claimed wasn't true. They were expecting someone older with experience, not a beautiful young woman. But they need someone and it sure doesn't hurt that she is beautiful to look at. She is able to tell them apart within minutes, being that they are identical and most people who have known them their entire lives can't.

I am generally not into reverse harem, or menage books. But "Claiming Their Nanny" was a novel that I will make an exception for. You can't help but love the twin brothers, Dan and Jim Brody. They care deeply for one another and always have each other's back. They need a nanny to care for their nephew, Chris, after their sister, Clara and her husband pass away from cholera. Abigail (Abby) Rose is attempting to start a new life after she becomes embroiled in a scandal at home in Philadelphia. She wasn't completely honest about her credentials as a nanny, but hopes that the brothers will be satisfied with the care that she can give Chris. After agreeing to a six month trial, they take her to their ranch and settle her in. Both brothers become smitten with Abby and she in turn can't make up her mind which one's affections she should accept when they both declare their love for her and desire to marry her. Decisions, decisions!! Who will she accept. You would have a hard time, too, dear readers, making up your mind between these two hot cowboys. Will she make the right decision and how will the brother that isn't selected feel about a marriage between their brother and the woman that he has fallen is love with too? A thoroughly enjoyable book and one I would recommend, even if a menage a trois is not your thing.

Claiming Their Nanny is the first book in Lily Reynard’s Montana Menage series. In this polyandrous romance, readers meet Abigail Rose and the twins, James and Daniel Brody. The Brody’s assume the care of their infant nephew, Christopher, upon the death of his parents. They seek a nanny for their nephew. Abigail, 19, answers their ad. The brothers are upset when they meet her as she is not what they requested, however, her beauty stuns them. Abigail took this opportunity to escape the shame bestowed on her when her ex-fiancé, besmirches her reputation upon learning she is barren due to a medical condition. Adjusting to her new life in Montana, Abigail soon falls in love with James and Dan. How will they proceed in their polyandrous relationship? Will they find happiness? You must read this book.
Ms. Reynard penned another delightful polyamorous historical romance with strong multi-layered lead characters. The lead characters are strong, determined, confident and vulnerable. I liked the strong dialog. I appreciated the three-person point of view to tell their back stories. I appreciated how Ms. Davis masterfully uses descriptive language paints vivid scenes that contribute to making this a captivating read.

An Awesome Book!!!

I loved reading Claiming Their Nanny: A Cowboy Ménage Romance(Montana Ménage Book 1). All about Abigail Rose a nineteen year old girl who is a nanny & Brody twins who are twenty-three own a ranch. The twins advertised for a nanny to care for their nephew. Abigail came from Philadelphia to except the position. They asked for a woman over thirty with nanny experience. Abigail applied, she babysat that was the extent of her knowledge. Read about Abigail & The Brody twins and see what kind of mischief they get into together during her trial run as nanny!! The author wrote a very interesting story that I started last night and finished this morning. I could no put the book down !! I can’t wait to read book 2.

Have Mercy!

Honestly, this story really blew me away. It was a touching historical fiction about a Philadelphia society girl that moves to the frontier after some unpleasant rumors begun to circulate. When Abigail Rose meets her new employers, the dynamic is just amazing! The way the characters interact will have you laughing and crying and it was just a really great read. Even the mature scenes where very romantic and contributing to the plot, instead of the plot only contributing to the mature scenes. I would definitely recommend this book to someone that loves a mature adult romance that makes you feel AND makes you feel sexy!

Claiming Their Nanny was an enjoyable read. After being violated by her fiancé and pushed aside, Abby leaves Philadelphia to become a nanny for an infant on a ranch in Montana. She struggles with her past and hopes to keep her reason for leaving a secret, but that isn't her only worry. She has fallen equally head over heals for Dan and Jim, owners of the ranch. I loved the characters in this story and how Ms. Reynard portrayed the time period. The tender and steamy moments added to the story and didn't over power it.

Loved the book it was great, the story was well written and the characters are interesting. Once I started I could not put the book down from start to finish. When Abigail applies for a job in a little country town. Daniel and James advertised for a nanny for their nephew Christopher, Abigail falls for the males in the house. It was a sweet read.
Thank you for allowing me to review your book.

A Sexy Lesson about the Wild West!

It was obvious that the author did a lot of research on life in turn of the century Montana. The accurate details including the landscape of Montana, the clothing of the era, the thoughts and prejudices of the time, and even the prices of things made the book almost seem like a history lesson - but much, much sexier! Love the Ménage!

Very sweet

This is my first book by this author and I really loved it. I like historical romances and this did not disappoint. Abigail and her twins Jim and Dan made for quite a sexy threesome, but the story was also sweet with some steam to make it extra interesting.
Can’t wait for the sequels.

Trouble follows the Nanny to Montana.

I liked how real the people and scenes appear to be. The intimate scenes are well written and are doable. The plot and storyline flow forward, without jumping all over. It made sense. The Brody brothers, twins, and the Nanny is one story in a series. I can't wait to read the other stories in that series.

Thin plot

I was slightly disappointed in the reasoning behind this thin plot. The main female character, in my opinion, seemed to be deliberately allowing both twins to take liberties without thoughts of how it may destroy a sibling relationship. She comes across quite callous and selfish to me.

Abby, Jim & Dan

I enjoyed the story greatly but in the beginning of the story there was a description of Thunder the horse being the stud of the ranch but also described him as being a gelding. He was also for sale and worth 2 million plus. My question is was he a stud or a gelding???

And they all lived happily ever incesty after. This was pretty good, Lily Raynard writes engaging historical menage stories. Some of the dialog was meh and the smut was a bit lacking for me personally but there was some sweetness to the story. Twin brother husbands, is it weird? Yes. However, the 2 husband trope keeps pulling me back.

This was a cute story with a frustrating beginning. I felt like it was mostly about a love triangle for the majority of the story and then everything was wrapped up neatly in the last few chapter. Still cute though!

Twins share everything

A beautiful refreshing story that shows what so many women were forced to endure because of an evil man. Luckily she found friends that believed her, men that loved her, and a perfect family to love and cherish!

I throughly enjoyed getting to know Abby andEmma along with the Brody twins and of course Chris.I enjoyed the way the story moved along. I don’t enjoy dragging a story out just for extra length! The story moved at a good pace letting me get to know the characters.

Great story

I really enjoyed this story. Historical romance with not just one, but two cowboys was great. I loved how open they were to adoption when they found out Abby couldn't have kids. Don't miss out on reading this wonderful tale!

Montana in 1885. Abigail Rose (aged 19, ffs) travels from Boston to become a nanny for the baby nephew of brothers James (Jim) and Daniel.
Rather silly set-up; not bad writing; but a bit far-fetched menage :)

Beautiful love story

This is the first book I've read by Lily. I found it to be heartfelt. I loved the way the story begins with turbulent heartache and ends with the renewal of happily ever after.

My friend and I agreed to pick books for each other, and we would read whatever the other one picked, no getting out of it. She picked this one for me. I loved the historically accurate details in this book! It's great to have an interesting story line.

Entertaining Read

3.5 stars. Definitely on the steamy side so if you don't like spice this isn't for you. I feel like the characters could have used some more development, but overall I enjoyed this and will pick up the next book in the series.
