One of the best installments of the series! I loved how we went for 2 characters that I wouldn't say were the 'main' characters but we're so loveable!!

Well, I don’t know what to do with myself now this series is over. Done and dusted will always have a special place in my heart, but this is coming in at a very close second. Cam has me rooting for her happiness from the first moment she was introduced, and I loved watching that happen, especially with Dusty. Dusty himself was steadfast and sure, and willing to do what it took to make Vam’s happiness reality.
I loved the way the series was tied up, with the epilogue spreading that not every couple needs the same future to be happy. Also, I’d do anything for Amos Ryder, he might just be my favourite character of all.
I can’t wait to see what Lyla writes next.

Lyla Sage made sure to finish her Rebel Blue Ranch series with a bang with Cam and Dusty. I’ve loved each of these 4 books so much that it’s sad to say goodbye, but Cam and Dusty made for a perfect ending.
I loved how their love survived all this time, how each was still pining through the distance, and grew stronger when they reunited. It was such a slow burn as they found their footing again as adults, after having been away from each other for so long. Cam is quiet and holds herself back, not letting herself want or enjoy, and it’s frustrating but as you read her story, you understand where she is coming from. Dusty is strong and loving and hopelessly dedicated - you just know he’ll do anything for Cam and Riley, but he needs to prove it to Cam. From page 1, you definitely had the feeling that they truly belonged together, then just needed time to find each other again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've loved the whole rebel blue ranch series, I'm sad to see it come to an end, but what a way to wrap it all up!!
In this final book we get:
✅️ Second chance romance
✅️ Friends to lovers
✅️ Single mum
✅️ Small town romance
At last, we get Dusty and Cam's story. After seeing them both pop up in the other books hinting there was a past between them, that didn't end to well, this was definitely more of a slow burn than some of the other books in the series. We go between flashbacks of their younger years and what happened there, as well as getting to see letters that Dusty had written but never sent. The flashbacks help us have a better understanding of what happened between them and what led them to their current situation. After Cam's wedding doesn't go ahead, she finds herself spending time back with her first love whilst trying to figure out what she wants to do with her life. They both had their issues to work through, and there was some self sabotage too, but it all came together in the end! Dusty and Cam's story was well written, I ate it up! Oh and I LOVED the bonus epilogue, too, with some of our favourites popping back up!
Thank you to Quercus books and Netgalley for the arc of this book for my honest review. It was a great read, and I can't wait to see what Lyla brings us next.

Thank you Quercus on NetGalley for providing me this arc copy of Wild and wrangled

So to start off the review ( I will keep this review short n sweet ( like SABRINA CAPENTERS ALBUM) . Let’s begin by saying he calls her Ash / angel!! As nicknames . This is a slowburn / second chance & i usually don’t like second chances but this one is good !!
Whats a nice change from the other 3 books in this series the spice doesn’t start until 59 -64% into the book!! This is good for me considering recently spice has been a hit or miss for me . The sex scenes in this book are actually emotional and sweet ( they have me swooning ) - especially from the things dusty says)
I do also want to say if you want instant romance between these two this may not be for you ( in present time anyway ) - you see a lot of their romance in the past via flashbacks mostly through cams pov.
I said to myself before I picked this up that this could be my fave in the series ( and I think I was right !!
I definitely will say out of all 4 men in the series ( dusty might have to be my fave) - he’s not grumpy , there is no hate to love trope between them . This is just literally a second chance , he falls first, he’s an actual cowboy, single mum romance ( cus Reminder Camille is Riley’s mother !!
There is no real 3rd act breakup & the ending was perfect . The perfect way to end the series

*Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.*
I am a big Lyla Sage fan. I have loved the previous three books, and I loved this one just as much! It was a beautiful way to end the series. The story it told of Cam and Dusty would not have worked as well if it was told sooner in the series. We have such a better knowledge of the Ranch and the familial relationships because of the previous books. I was invested in Cam and her daughter. I wanted her to get her happy ending. And that was all before this book even started!
Cam and Dusty together were great. Their banter was top notch, and I enjoyed that Dusty brought a different side out of Cam. We get to see flashbacks of them in high school and I loved this so much. It added much needed context for their relationship and why they were how they were current day.
There were a few little things that didn't really get resolved and just faded away (some stuff with her parents), but I honestly don't care. I was here for Cam and I was here for Dusty (pierced nose and tattoos all).
It was also fun to see more of the other characters from previous books. They never felt forced into the story, rather a natural part of the characters lives.
Cam's 7 year old daughter continued to feel age appropriate, and was a delight to read.
I can confidently say Lyla Sage will continue to be an auto-read author for me. Can't wait to see what she does next!

Review: Wild and Wrangled by Lyla Sage
Lyla Sage has done it again and I am absolutely feral over this book. I’m usually not big on second chance romance but Cam and Dusty may have converted me. Watching them fall, break apart, and find their way back to each other had me kicking my feet and clutching my chest. They are just meant to be 😭
The pining. The tension. THE FLIRTING. Chefs kiss 🤌🏻
The way Dusty knows Cam better than anyone else and goes after what he wants without hesitation? I am WEAK.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it forever, Lyla Sage just keeps outdoing herself. If you love second chances, small-town romance, and couples who are destined to find their way back to each other, drop everything and read this immediately.

I loved this so, so much, just as I have every other book! I couldn’t wait to explore Cam and Dusty’s story and finally find out their history and I wasn’t disappointed. Will definitely be re-reading on release day!

I was ecstatic to get an ARC of Wild & Wrangled, the conclusion of the Blue Rebel Ranch series sharing Cam and Dusty’s story. It is / has:
•F/M second chance romance
•Friends to lovers element
•Pining
•It’s always been you
•Dual POV, dual timeline
•Interconnected standalone, book four in the Blue Rebel Ranch series
I devoured Lost and Lassoed in one evening in one sitting and Wild & Wrangled would have been the same but I wanted to savour this story. I loved it and it is my favourite in the series. Reasons why ⬇️
•I adore both main characters, who are incredibly likeable and I longed for them to be happy. So first up, our tattooed and pierced MMC Dusty. Dusty is a top tier book boyfriend (I’m not saying anything else as I want you experience him in the story but I will say I have thought about him daily since finishing this book). And then we have our FMC Cam, who I also loved, in my opinion what Sage does so well is not defining Cam solely as being a mother in this story.
•I wanted to know Cam and Dusty’s back story, how they became estranged. Their reconnection had the tension I desired. We have moments of their past interspersed throughout which is an element I always love in a second chance romance.
•I adore the found family element to this series alongside a sprinkle of small town, this shone through here with the relationships from friendships, families and romances.
This is the perfect conclusion to this series, one I can’t wait to read again when it’s released in April.

4.5 stars
I love Dusty. I think the world needs more people like Dusty in it. People who have good souls and help people out, not because they think they might get something out of it, but just because they genuinely care about people and want to make their day a little easier/brighter/better. People like that are the true treasures in this world.
I had a great time reading this book. It just had relaxed vibes, wasn’t too angsty, was super sweet and didn’t really have a third act break up. It was more of an argument that lasted a day and a chapter. Also, there was this bonus scene in the back that made me proper cry. People around me were worried about me. It was sad and sweet and wrapped up the series in a little bow.

Wild and Wrangled is the perfect end to what I can only describe as an unforgettable series!.
I adored the characters and seeing their story develop, alongside them as individuals grow throughout.
Honestly, I adored everything about this book! A series I will be shouting about for a long time.
*Thank you to Netgalley and the Publishers for providing me with an ARC of this book in return for my honest review.*

My absolute favourite in the series. Her best work. I adored them all but this one just hits different. I loved the yearning and pining over so many years and how they found their way back to eachother after all. I really felt the depth in their relationship and their individual flaws and growth throughout. The bonus chapter at the end actually made me cry, it was so bittersweet . I’m so sad this series has come to an end but I’m so excited to see what Lyla does next!

This series has my whole heart and this book was no different - a perfect conclusion and way to leave Meadowlark. I love how Cam and Dusty's story developed and was revealed gradually to us through flashbacks and notes. Their connection in general to the Ryder family was also beautiful to see.
I adore this book and series, and think I will be revisiting it regularly.

It’s bittersweet saying goodbye to Rebel Blue Ranch, but Lyla Sage delivers a heartfelt, second-chance romance that wraps up the series with warmth, charm, and just a tiny bit of frustration (more on that later).
Cam and Dusty have history—high school sweethearts, true love, the whole deal. But somewhere along the way, it all fell apart, and now they’re barely acquaintances. When Dusty rescues Cam on what should’ve been her wedding day, they’re forced to confront their past… and realise that the spark between them never really died.
Cue emotional flashbacks, some gorgeous love letters from Dusty, and plenty of tension as they work through what went wrong. And here’s where my mild rant comes in: I was expecting a big reason for their split—some devastating betrayal or a massive misunderstanding. But when the truth was revealed? Relatable, sure. But also kind of… underwhelming? Given how much they meant to each other, I wanted something with a bit more weight.
That said, the real magic of this book (and the whole series) is the community. Rebel Blue Ranch has that perfect small-town feel, where everyone’s business is everyone’s business, but in the best way. The friendships, the deep bonds, and the unwavering support for Cam and Dusty make this story shine. And Riley—Cam’s little girl—is an absolute star in this book. She’s been a great side character throughout the series, but here? She steals every scene she’s in.
While my favourite of the series is still Gus and Teddy’s love story in book three, Wild and Wrangled is a solid, emotional finale that fans will appreciate. If you haven’t read the first three books, I highly recommend doing so—knowing the group dynamics really enhances the story.
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4 stars)
Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC—my opinions, as always, are my own.

“I’ll love you until we’re dust, Camille Ashwood”
SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE WILL FOREVER BE FAMOUS TO ME!!!!
I loved the past and present timelines for this story I feel like it gave this couple such a deeper connection seeing young Dusty & Cam fall in love made my heart melt !!!
Dusty has made his way onto my book boyfriend list and he’s BLONDE that never happens but this man was just everything !! Like come on he wrote letters to her about his day even when they weren’t talking this man has been down bad forever for her
“We went in two separate directions, but roads that go opposite directions come back together all the time”
I adored the crumbs of the rest of the rebel blue family (mainly my girl teddy & my man gus) throughout the story and this book was a perfect way to wrap up the series

What a way to end this series! I absolutely loved finally getting Cam and Dusty’s story, their path back to each other was long and emotional and I enjoyed every single minute of it!
I honestly just always saw Cam as one of the Ryder siblings (I know I know that’s weird because of Riley but I said what I said) so I loved seeing her finally find her happiness, although she was super stubborn at times she finally got that Happy ever after she truly deserved.
Dusty was something else, I know everyone loves a boy obsessed and some pining mixed in but Dusty takes the crown on both! He never ever gave up on his future with Cam, the same future he’d been envisioning since he was 17! I thought he was an incredible MMC and was so sensitive towards Cam and her needs!
Also those Ryder men do they just get wiser and wiser or?? Their advice to both Cam and Dusty (all of them!!) was so heartwarming, and so genuine it basically made me cry whilst I was reading it!! Amos Ryder is the father figure everyone needs, and I absolutely adore him.
Yes, I did cry through the extra epilogue, like right the way through, what an incredible way to wrap up an incredible series. Rebel Blue Ranch and Medowlark along with the characters will forever be with me!

First of all, thank you net galley for the arc i received.
Yeah idk where to begin with this…
I got the arc of this in January and was so excited to pick it up, especially after lost & lassoed, this though was not it.
I only read 25% of this and can say that there was something huge amiss with it. I was fully thinking that this would be my favourite book or at least my second fav but it felt like a completely unedited first draft 🤷🏻♀️
I keep trying to persuade myself into picking it up and I just cannot keep trying. The characters AND story felt so flat and I just can’t give my attention to it any longer.
Take from this what you will but unfortunately this felt like an unfortunate ending to what I would consider quite a fun series.

✨Wild and Wrangled by Lyla Sage ✨
I couldn’t wait to read this book, but to get an Arc arghhhh!!!
I don’t want to write any spoilers for this book as I want others to read it as blind as I did, and I just loved it!
If you’re a fan of the Rebel Blue Series you’ll know that Lyla Sage knows how to write a man but Dusty 🥹 *whimpers*. The romance, the ‘A’ and the letters all just melted my heart!
This book is the sweetest story of young love, personal growth, found family and finding your way back home and was the perfect ending to a stellar series! If you’re waiting for this book to drop I can wholeheartedly say that you will not be disappointed! I can’t wait to read what Lyla writes next!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the Arc!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really enjoyed this book. Second chance, childhood/first love romance. He's obsessed with her and she has her walls up. Absolutely ate this up.
