Thank you NetGalley and Dial Press for she ARC.

I do not want this series to end. It’s cute, fun and the perfect amount of emotion and 🌶️.

I loved reading Dusty and Cam’s story. It was the perfect amount of tension. I thought the flashbacks to highschool were just enough, and I loved the appearances from other characters.

On sale April 2025.

I think that Wild and Wrangled is my most favorite. I texted my BFF at about chapter 11 that I knew this one would hurt me. I love Cam. I love Dusty. 10/10. I can't wait 'til it comes out for real.

I received an e-arc from NetGalley.

Cam and Dusty are the ultimate second chance. They have tension for days. This was the perfect finale to the most beloved series of contemporary romance in decades.

Love, love. love! This was everything I wanted and more! Dusty and Cam deserve every bit of love they can have.

As the final book in the Rebel Blue series I knew it would be emotional, but damn, I cried so much! This is a second chance romance that hit hard, and I loved what Lyla did with it. I was about to hit a reading slump when I picked this up, and I proceeded to finish it in 24hrs.

Camille is the single mother co-parent opposite Gus. After reading Gus' book previously and seeing his relationship with Riley and how Teddy learns to bond with her, I knew I had a lot of questions about Cam and how this co=parenting situation happened. I loved getting to see Dusty learn how to bond with Riley, and the Dusty/Gus soccer scene was hilarious!

Because this is a second chance romance we obviously know that Cam and Dusty have a past, and can I just say this man is a SIMP. He is so gone for her it was adorable but also heart wrenching. I thought I knew what had caused their early break up but I was wrong and the real reason was so much sadder! Obviously I will be encouraging everyone to read this, and I cant wait for Lyla to break my heart again. (though of course there is a happy ending)

The finale we have been waiting for...Cam and Dusty! The tension and history between these two has been teasing us and I'm glad to have finally read it. I liked the dual timelines and we saw them fall in love as teenagers...I liked their story but wish there was just a bit more, I felt it was rushed. I also wanted some more of Cams storyline, but I guess it represents how very absent they were.

A sweet goodbye to Rebel Blue Ranch. This was a more contained read after the explosion that is Teddy and Gus, but the more quiet, understated narrative felt more like Camille's personality, and Dusty's too (if that makes sense), so I didn't mind. And we finally got the Camille/Gus backstory! I'm ready to head over to Sweetwater Peak!

Okay, friends. A couple of months ago, I claimed that I didn’t like cowboy romances... Well, I have to quickly amend that statement. Apparently, I just hadn’t found the right cowboy romance yet. Wild & Wrangled by Lyla Sage is exactly the RIGHT kind of cowboy romance.

If there’s one thing that will absolutely always win me over, it’s a great story about second-chance love and how sometimes we find the right people at the wrong time. And that’s exactly what Wild & Wrangled delivered. I loved every second of it.

Cam and Dusty’s story was beautiful, and the flashback chapters were so heartfelt that they transported me right back to high school—in all the best ways. I loved the past perspective, as well as the present-day chapters.

I also really appreciated how this novel presented a more modern take on a “traditional” family (whatever that even means). Cam had a phenomenal, healthy co-parenting relationship with her daughter’s father, and she was fully included in his family. There was no unnecessary jealousy or unhealthy dynamics. It was refreshing, heartwarming, and life-affirming. I absolutely loved it.

As for the spice—it wasn’t overwhelming, but what we did get was SO good.

Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend the Rebel Blue Ranch series. It’s the cowboy romance series everyone should be reading.

Wild & Wrangled is the final book in the series and will be released in April 2025, but lucky for you, there are three other books you can dive into right now! Happy reading!

First off, I absolutely love this series and I am very sad that it is now at the end. That said, I had my hopes very high for this one and they weren't quite met in the same way that some of the others in this series met them. I loved Cam and Dusty and finding out more about their history. I am not always a fan of second chance romance, but here I thought it worked really well. Lyla was able to showcase the deep feelings these two had while also showing that they needed space and time to grow into people who were ready to fully commit to one another.

My reasoning that this fell short was that I just wanted a little bit more. By the time they figured things out in the present timeline, I felt like we were barreling too fast to the end. Even with that I still loved this book and highly recommend this one as well as the whole series.

Now I will be counting down the days until I can have an Amos Ryder story!

Wild and Wrangled is a heartfelt and deeply satisfying second-chance romance that feels like coming home. Camille and Dusty’s story is brimming with raw emotion, undeniable chemistry, and the kind of messy, tender love that only comes with shared history. The small-town charm and the close-knit Rebel Blue Ranch setting add a warmth that perfectly balances the emotional intensity. Dusty’s quiet yearning and Cam’s determination to rebuild make their journey feel so genuine, and their connection is electric yet comforting, like the love you never truly let go. A perfect send-off for this series, full of heart, heat, and hope.

I binged these cowboy stories the last few weeks and they are the perfect remedy for the world right now. This book was one of the best in the series, compulsively sweet and endearing.

Lyla Sage is an autobuy author for me, and she proves it time and time again with these swoon worthy cowboy romances. I’ve been waiting on the edge of my seat for Cam and Dusty’s book. Lyla Sage did not disappoint! Second chance romances are always hard to do and not that believable most of the time in my humble opinion, but Lyla was able to show how well it can be done. With flashbacks from the past, both characters being able to confess their faults in the relationship helped make it feel real to the reader. I also loved all the lil sneak peeks we are going to hopefully get in her next series! Overall a 10/10 read.

“Wild and Wrangled” by Lyla Sage is a fantastic conclusion to the Rebel Blue Ranch series. I’m not ready to bid farewell to this series just yet! Dusty and Cam have another shot at romance, and I absolutely adored their story.

If you have a weekend to spare, I highly recommend giving this book a read. You’ll miss the series dearly, trust me!

Wild and Wrangled is the fourth book in the Rebel Blue Ranch series written by Lyla Sage.

*Jilted bride
*Second chance
*Love notes❤️

The love story between Cam and Dusty is so amazing, yet so heart breaking to read. The author does a fantastic job of giving us the full story of how they fell in love with each other, and how they fell apart from each other. And to quote Cam, they never fell out of love, just drifted apart from each other for a few years.

I struggled with Cam’s character in the other books, but after reading her POV I understand her stubbornness and hesitations. Dusty was so hot! That mouth!! I love how he never gave up on Cam and knew that they were end game. 🥵

No OM/OW drama, no third act breakup. Guaranteed HEA.

The extended epilogue with Emmy and Luke was so good!! The author does a wonderful job of wrapping up the series and letting us know where everyone is at in their lives.

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing for the opportunity to read and review this title!

A great finale to the Rebel Blue Ranch series! We finally got to find out the back story to Gus and Cam. Seeing Cam’s character come to life and evolve was such a ride! I couldn’t put this book down and finished it in once sitting and hope you are ready for this love story.

High school sweethearts!!! Lyla gives readers things they didn’t even realize were possible. Cam and Dusty are adorable and I can’t believe I got to read their story early!

Everything about this book was perfect! The best conclusion to the Rebel Blue series!

This book came to me at the exact moment I needed it. Thank you Lyla & pub for the chance to read this ARC!

Like many fans of the series I could spend forever and ever in this picturesque little town! I loved getting to finally see this couple come together with everyone cheering them on. I was surprised by all the twists and turns of their backstory too. Eagerly awaiting the next work from Lyla Sage!

Wild and Wrangled by Lyla Sage was the perfect way to end the Rebel Blue Ranch series and I consider myself very lucky to have been given the opportunity to read an ARC of this. I truly believe that Lyla Sage's writing got even better with each book in this series and it makes me a little sad to know that the series has come to an end. The character development was fantastic and I truly came to care for every single character in this series. The chemistry was there. It was overall a very enjoyable read. I binged it in a weekend! I cannot wait to read more from Lyla Sage and will definitely be recommending this book and this series to everyone I know.

A perfect finale to the series. I loved every minute, and I think that Dusty might be my favorite out of all the male leads in the series.

Absolutely SPEECHLESS. Lyla’s writing is perfection. The amount of care and love into every single one of her book is flawless, but this one, WOW. Lyla has outdone herself. This is easily my favorite one of this series.

Lyla changed LIVES with this book, holy shit. I’m not a second chance girly but this book changed my mind forever. I laughed, I cried and I laughed again. She’s a genius and this book is everything. A million stars.
