Lyla Sage has done it again with Wild and Wrangled! This book hit all the right notes for me—second-chance love with perfectly timed high school flashbacks, which happens to be one of my absolute favorite tropes. The tension, the longing, and the undeniable chemistry between the main characters had me completely hooked. I loved how the past and present wove together seamlessly, making every emotion feel even more intense. Sage’s writing is heartfelt and addictive, and the small-town charm just adds to the magic. If you love romance with depth, nostalgia, and all the swoon-worthy moments, this one is a must-read!

I literally got goosebumps reading the last few sentences. I started this series after Lost and Lassoed. I was grateful and amazed I received eARCs for both Swift and Saddled and now Wild and Wrangled.
I absolutely love this series and this was a perfect way to end the series.
Thank you Lyla for the memories.

Lyla Sage proves again she is not a one trick pony!
The depth of these two characters, two I wasn't sure I would be able to fall in love with after falling so hard for the rest of the Rebel Blue gang, was so immense, so certain, so grounding! I just love these faceted and radiant female leads, these vulnerable and authentic men she has dreamed up.

❛❛ I’ll love you until we’re dust in the wind, Camille Ashwood. ❜❜
That line broke me. There's something about the way Lyla captures devotion—messy, aching, enduring—that stays with you long after the last page. Camille and Dusty are fire and friction and forgiveness wrapped up in a slow-burn romance that never loses its spark. Their journey felt raw and real, with tension that sizzled and emotional beats that hit like a stampede.

The world of Rebel Blue continues to expand with heart and grit, and Wild & Wrangled rises to the top. Lyla’s writing is confident and tender, full of wide-open landscapes and private moments that feel like secrets whispered to the reader.

If you're looking for a love story with teeth and tenderness, this one's for you.

Five stars, a thousand times over. 🤠💫

Wild and Wrangled
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thanks so much to @thedialpress for the free eARC!

I’m gonna call this the Rebel Blue Ranch redemption book. I’ll be honest I did not love books two and three, so I was very hesitant to read this one. If I’m still being honest, I am still not impressed by her writing. I do feel that some of the phrasing is incorrect, but this story was CUTE and I could not stop smiling. Therefore, I don’t care.
I’m a sucker for a second-chance romance, especially when it has flashback chapters, so I was locked in for this!!!
This was so adorable. The moments when we saw them when they were first meeting were so sweet. This is jam-packed full of pining and longing.
I loved the found family aspect of this story. The way that everyone in this book treated each other like they were part of the family was so endearing. It provides such a cozy aspect to the story.
Talk about a man who yearns, he was so down bad for her!!! He truly saw her and what she needed and was the most supportive person in her life. It was perfect.
I just can’t get over how cute it was because I seriously couldn’t stop smiling at it while I read. This is easily my favorite in the series, and I think it’s inspired me to read her new series when it releases too. You can read Wild and Wrangles on April 15th!

All of the feels!!! The slowest burn of them all. Dusty and Cam are the love story that feels the most raw.
Surprisingly to me, what sticks the most is the way Cam talks about parenting. You feel how deeply she loves Riley, and every ounce of effort she puts in to be different from her own parents.
Looooove the 2000’s emo/punk rock throwbacks to complete a little alt-Dusty image. But it just makes me think he should have also had a lip ring in high school and a scar 15 years later that Cam lingers on.
Overall, 10/10. There will be a Rebel Blue hole in my heart with the ending of this one.

Cam and Dusty have my whole heart!! I have loved all of the books in the Rebel Blue Ranch series, but Wild and Wrangled is probably my new favourite. This book was incredible and the love story was so beautiful. Dusty is honestly the perfect MMC and the way he loved Cam was exquisite. He is so down bad and I ate up every second of yearning! The flashbacks and the letters were everything. Lyla’s writing is amazing and she has a talent for writing relatable characters that will steal your heart. This book was the perfect end to an amazing series and I cannot wait to see what Lyla writes next. I highly recommend this series to all romance readers.

What to expect:
💛 Cowboy Romance
💛 Second Chance
💛 Single Mom
💛 Forced Proximity
💛 Found Family

Thank you to Lyla Sage, the Dial Press, Random House and NetGalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Wild and Wrangled is a great ending to the Rebel Blue Ranch series of western romances by Lyla Sage! I loved that the three previous couples from the earlier books were present throughout Cam and Dusty's story and that this book's story arc complemented the others in a way that felt complete. Reading this book made me want to re-read the previous books to revisit details of the earlier relationships (it even included a bonus chapter with Emmy and Luke's wedding at the end). Love the descriptions of Rebel Blue Ranch and the nostalgic small town setting of Meadowlark, too--it gives the series very cozy and comforting vibes.

Another win from Lyla Sage! Cam and Dusty are the epitome of second chance romance characters, and their journey was incredibly heartwarming and satisfying. The characters and setting of Rebel Blue Ranch are ones I will return to many times, and will certainly compare other romance series to. This was as sweet and sexy as I’d hoped, and didn’t give me the “ick” like so many romance novels do. Dusty is the ideal romantic leading man, and I’m so glad we got Cam’s story, because I’d been very curious about her in earlier Rebel Blue Ranch books.

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing for the ARC! Lyla Sage. You gave us the absolute best ending to Rebel Blue. Finally reading about Cam and Dusty was heartbreaking and hopeful all wrapped into one. I loved how we got snippets of how they met and fell in love in high school. Writing notes, listening to Dashboard Confessional, cheering Cam on at all of her soccer games. It took me back to my high school days and falling in love! I have enjoyed learning more about these characters in every book leading up to this one! What's meant to be is meant to be.

What more can I say about the QUEEN Lyla Sage. She has my heart when it comes to cowboy romances, and she has yet to disappoint. This feels like the perfect country summer night under the stars.

Wild and Wrangled was such a beautiful read from start to finish. I've been so excited for Cam and Dusty's story, and it was such a bittersweet feeling to finally get to read it, and at the same time know that it was wrapping up our time at Rebel Blue Ranch. It was such a fun story, and I loved getting to see all the characters again. I loved the way Lyla wove together the past and present of Cam and Dusty's story-it felt seamless and gave us some really sweet moments. It was an emotional read that made me want to go back and reread the entire series again. I can't wait to see what Lyla writes next!

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review!

I can’t believe the series is over! I love all of the characters so much and definitely will be rereading these books again! Cam and Dusty were childhood sweethearts. Now years later, they’re back in the same hometown together. After Dusty helps Cam with running away from her wedding, they decide to give being friends another go. I love how Dusty was there for Cam and wanted to help her with everything going on in her life. He truly wanted her to easy the burdens and to live a happy life. I liked that they talked through their emotions and feelings for each other not too long after being together. I’m really happy that once they were on the same page, they jumped back to being in a relationship together. Cam and Dusty are so cute together and I’m happy that everyone got their happy endings!

Lyla doesn't miss and this book is no exception. This couple was MEANT to be the final couple because we've seen bits of them through out the series and the longing I read in this book is nothing short of perfect.

oh my Lyla gal. the woman you are. just sobbed my eyes out at the epilogue and then sobbed my eyes out even more. i feel like i was just emotionally bodied by words on a screen (guys!!! THAT ENDING!!!!! i’m still getting choked up just thinking about it).
this series has truly meant the whole entire world to me, i have loved every single second i spent with rebel blue (and i will continue to love every single second i spend with them for years and years to come) and i couldn’t have imagined a more perfect, beautiful ending for this truly special fictional world and family. i remember the exact moment i realized cam and dusty were getting a book and i was ENTHRALLED, on the edge of my seat waiting to see how it was going to play out. i had the highest of hopes for these two and Lyla, as usual, so far surpassed every expectation i had and wrote a more perfect book that i could’ve ever dreamed up.

anyways, Cam and Dusty!!!! my pathetically in love boy and sweet scared girl <3 i could not have loved these two more if i tried. THE PINING! the vulnerability and honesty they always showed each other! THEIR PROTECTIVENESS OVER EACH OTHER!!! the flashbacks ohhhh! my sweet baby angels <3 i could go on and on and on but simply put, i just loved how much these two loved each other. the whole book. even if it was suppressed, even if they were working through hurt and past wounds, even if they were scared, the love was so evident.

and i quickly need to mention how MUCH I LOVED! getting all my girls together! it’s no secret i love Lyla’s gals and their friendships and i’m so so glad they were still so present here! and i’m even more glad we got to see more bits and pieces of ada and get to see more into her and cam’s friendship as well!!!!

truly such a beautiful way to end this beautiful series. it has been such an honor to have a front row seat to Lyla’s growth over the past couple years. i’ve truly been hanging on her every word since the first time i read done and dusted in 2022 and i don’t see this changing any time soon.
rebel blue i will love you always. forever and ever homesick for this place and these people that do not exist outside of these pages. but so very grateful Lyla gave them to us.

This book was a delightful way to end my time at Rebel Blue Ranch, and it ended the series perfectly-like one of the reviews said-I wanted to go back and read the first book after I finished! Second-chance romances aren't my favorite trope but Lyla had me hooked from the first page. My only complaint if I can even call it that is that the burn was slowwww, but once it burned it was white hot!

Lyla Sage does it again! I’ve been anticipating Cam & Dusty’s story since Swift & Saddled, and it did not disappoint. Lyla builds on Cam and Ada’s friendship, too, by having Ada point out that they have similar avoidant tendencies. Meanwhile, Teddy and Dusty’s friendship makes me LOL.

There were several flashback scenes between Cam and Dusty that had me 😭🥰 we also get to see a little bit of how Riley came to be, which was fun. The spice is definitely there in this book, but maybe slightly less than some of the others in the series, IMO. Loved it!

Thank you NetGalley for this ebook in exchange for an honest review.
I'm going to start by saying that I only started using NetGalley for this book in particular. I have been obsessed with this series since I read the very first one "Done and Dusted." Lyla Sage just does such a fantastic job of reigning her audience in and making them want to know so much more about the Ryder's and extended family. I'm so happy for Dusty and Cam to get their second chance at love. I thought the notes Dusty always writes to Cam were a nice touch and I enjoyed going back in time and seeing how they were together in high school too. I'm sad that this is the last book in the Rebel Blue Ranch series, but I can't wait to see what Lyla Sage comes up with next!!

I love Lyla Sage’s writing. This series has been very fun and this addition does not disappoint. Love returning to the small town in Wyoming, and seeing my favorite characters. Sexy and fun.

Everything about this book was absolutely perfect (minus the third act breakup, seemed a little bit too much).

Dusty and Cam were exactly what I needed! I love a good second chance romance and this did not miss! Dusty is a golden retriever softy for Cam and Riley. My heart could not take it! There were plenty of cute moments between Dusty and Riley which of course I adored.

I enjoyed the dual time line. Being able to see who they were to each other as kids and seeing how they’ve changed and grown into themselves was perfect. Sometimes we’re with the right person in the wrong time and it just takes time to come back to one another.

I think Amos said it best: “A mark on your heart and soul that refuses to fade, no matter how much time passes or how much you think you’ve changed.”
