Weston Ryder hot damn. This man was such a sexy & nice cowboy. I loved Ada. Her ideas for the house renovation were wonderful. Wes was such a mature guy and so smitten with their relationship. Chefs kiss. Quite literally cannot wait for book 3 🆘

Thank you Dial Press for the eARC in exchange for an honest review!

This was such an addictive and fast paced read and in my opinion, even better than Lyla Sage’a debut!

Short synopsis: Ada is an interior designer who’s next project takes her to Rebel Blue Ranch to renovate a guest cabin. What she doesn’t expect is to fall for her boss Wes along the way as well as this small Wyoming town.

Thoughts: Wes is my favorite kind of hero. He put the needs of those he loves before himself, is kind and funny, an amazing flirt and knows how to fight for what he wants. He balanced out Ada perfectly, and it was great to see her confidence and self image grow after coming from a controlling relationship. My favorite part was being back at Rebel Blue Ranch with the entire Ryder family. Be prepared for lots of Emmy and Brooks!

I didn’t think it was possible to love characters in this series more than I loved Luke and Emmy…and then Lyla gave me Wes and Ada and I am ruined.

Wes is such a soft, sunshine boy, who is constantly putting the needs and happiness of those he loves before his own. And Ada…after a failed marriage and some self-esteem issues, she needs someone like Wes to prove to her that she can have all the things she wants and deserves: love, a place to call home, a fulfilling career.

I just don’t have words for how much I love these two, and how perfect this story is.

Swift and Saddled is by far one of the best small town, cowboy romances I’ve ever read. Wes is emotionally intelligent, deeply kind and a thoughtful MMCs. Ada is healing from an emotionally abusive marriage and the Rebel Blue Ranch is her soft place to land. They are the sweetest couple and Wes will make you swoon right from the start. The secondary characters are such a delight especially Amos. I highly recommend this book because it’ll leave you with a smile on your face!

"Swift and Saddled" by Lyla Sage is the next installment in the Rebel Blue Ranch series, offering a small-town romance that explores themes of opposites attracting and the challenges of forced proximity.

Ada Hart, a city girl determined not to be tied down by a man, finds herself in Meadowlark after securing a significant project for her interior design business. Having faced setbacks in her personal and professional life, Ada is fiercely independent and trusts only herself. However, as she embarks on the project in Meadowlark, she encounters a charming cowboy in a dive bar, leaving her with a memorable kiss. Little does she know that he is Weston Ryder, her new boss.

Weston is a happy-go-lucky cowboy who is delighted to discover that the mystery woman from the bar is the interior designer for his family's ranch project. Despite his optimism, Ada makes it clear that she wants nothing beyond a professional relationship. As they work together on the ranch, Ada's walls prove challenging to break down, and both must navigate their growing feelings while maintaining their focus on the project.

The novel explores the tension between Ada's desire for independence and Wes's attempts to break through her barriers. The setting of Rebel Blue Ranch provides a backdrop for the unfolding romance, adding a layer of small-town charm to the narrative.
