I have enjoyed the Rebel Blue Ranch series and I'm sad that it's done. The fourth installment of this series follows Cam and Dusty as they reconnect after a high school relationship. The book starts with Cam getting left at the alter by a man that was really just a marriage of convenience to please their parents. While I enjoyed the overall story the characterization of Cam was pretty grating. She was very one dimensional and honestly kind of annoying at times. She spends so much time going back and forth in her inner dialogue about whether she wants to be with Dusty and if she can love him again after their teenage relationship ends so poorly. She vacillates so much that you as the reader, are made to think that Dusty must have done something truly awful to Cam in the past. But it turns out that she left him, and was kind of a brat about it. Her whole character is very much the classic "poor little rich girl" trope which I really don't get because she doesn't even need her parents money because she's lawyer. The book was entertaining, but overall a bit lackluster.

This was the perfect closure for the Rebel Blue series. Personally, I like when all the loose ends come together at the conclusion of a series and I can rest knowing all is well in their world. :)

I have been waiting for Dusty and Cam's story and Lyla Sage did not disappoint. I'll start by saying they are probably my least favorite of Rebel Blue couples, but still have 4.5 stars! Cam could closed off at times and her reasoning for some of her decisions didn't seem to make any logical sense (but then again, who's to decide?!) Dusty was the sweetest. I love his golden retriever energy underneath his tough exterior. If you have read the other books in this series, you will be pleased to know that the characters make an appearance and there is some insight into their lives moving forward. All in all - this was a phenomenal series and the perfect way to close out my days at Rebel Blue. I can't wait to see what Lyla Sage does next!

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Random House | Dial Press Trade Paperback for the ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.

I am truly going to miss Rebel Blue.

I will start this off by saying that i am NOT a romance girly. I do not get it, I only read it occasionally, and only when it is shoved down my throat. This however, I have picked up willingly and gladly throughout this entire series. I'm not sure exactly what it is about it, the small town charm, the western aspects, the tight knit family that grows over the course of the series, the continuing storylines and interconnected romances, or just all of it.

I am also not a very big fan of smut and think that it has taken over a lot of good books that just turn into either a fan serve, because they feel like they have to, or it takes over the entire plot. Again, not here. The sex is meaningful and tasteful and actually adds to the plot and the growth of their romance. And also....was quite hot I will admit.

I love how the characters from the other books are highlighted in the following novels, it makes sticking with this series even more special and I love to continue to see where everyone is at.

Not only is the setting good, or the romance, but the characters themselves start out so strongly that it really sets this up for success. Again, I think it is super helpful with this being the fourth book because we already know these characters and have been looking forward to their story thus far. It make this even more sweet to finally get to. Usually, as it has been for this series, I am always more in love with the heroine and her story but Dusty really takes the cake with this one. I love nothing more than an absolute SIMP for their leading lady and he sure does have it bad. It was so lovely to see them fall back in love and a second chance romance here was done RIGHT.

Sad this is over now...hope that Lyla will return to Rebel Blue one day because I feel that that town has more stories to give.

We need an Amos book!!!

Don't be fooled by my 3 star rating. I did really enjoy this, but I never really give romances anything above a three. This is wonderful and could maybe even be a 3.5, but nothing will compare to my fantasy books so three stars it is.

This was my favorite book of the series! I have been waiting for their story since swift and saddled! Anything by this author is an automatic read and this was the best in my opinion

I really enjoyed this book! This may have been my favorite of the series. I was rooting for Cam the whole time and I am so glad she overcame her family's expectations and found herself. I absolutely love Dusty! When I found out his real name!!!! AHHH! As much as I loved this book I felt like the ending was rushed and I wanted more of them really becoming a family with Riley and the Rebel Blue crew.

If you've been waiting desperately for Cam and Dusty's story since Swift & Saddled, you are going to be delighted by these two. This second chance romance set at Rebel Blue Ranch brings back all our favorites to root for Cam and Dusty, right alongside the reader. The PINING between these two is so good. The flashbacks to their high school days was a delightful addition, and I'm forever glad these two got their much-deserved HEA!

Finally, we find out what happens to Cam and Dusty! This book has everything Cowboys, Community and CLOSURE. Like most romance fans, I love me a series. They give you bread crumbs to lead you to the next great book. This series was lovely and had characters to root for.

What an end to the Rebel Blue series 🥹💙

I was immediately invested in Cam and Dusty when we learned briefly of their history in the last book. Second chance romance is an incredibly hard trope to get right. The author has to show you how they fell in love the first time, how they fell apart, and get you invested for them to fall in love the second time. Lyla did an amazing job with their story. I loved seeing their past, and I’m a complete sucker for any time a story had letters as a component, it’s so romantic! And seeing them come together the second time, with Riley, Cam’s daughter in the mix, was so heartwarming. Loved their love!! It brought all the feels. So well done, Lyla!! You did an amazing job handling second chance 😍

I’m going to miss all these characters so much. If you are looking for a great cowboy romance series to jump into, this is def one to start. It gets better with each book! I can’t wait to see what Lyla Sage will write next.

Thank you to the publisher for my advanced e-arc of this book. All opinions are my own!

Thank you to NetGalley for this arc! I rate this 5 stars and 3 chili peppers for spice. Wow wow wow! This was my favorite book out of the whole series! I cried twice and I rarely cry. Dusty’s golden retriever vibes are everything. I love the dynamic between him and Cam. The tension between them is so intense throughout the whole book. Honestly I could have read another 200 pages of their love story and still been absolutely invested in the book. Wish this wasn’t the end of the series but also excited to see what Lyla writes next.

Lyla Sage's Rebel Blue Ranch series concludes with Wild and Wrangled, which was ultimately a pretty fitting and satisfying ending. Telling us the story of the repressed/hamstrung Camille, and her high school love who got away, Dusty, this one is sexy, fun and aspirational, just like all the Rebel Blue Ranch titles. Camille is a little bit of a black box, even after reading a whole story about her (I'm still not convinced that her motivations for having a child make much sense), but the chemistry between her and Dusty is evident from the get-go. As a reader of the previous books in the series, I appreciated the wrapping up of some of the dangling plot lines, and it seems certain that we can rest assured that all is well on Rebel Blue. Definitely a quick, fun, entertaining read that I will recommend to anyone looking for a little bit of light, romantic escapism.

This book!! What a culmination of the Rebel Blue Ranch series. I was tearing up just from the dedication and author's note, and the tattooed cowboy is exactly what I didn't know I needed! You will absolutely swoon for this second chance romance between Dusty and Cam, told between dual POVs in the present day and flashbacks to 15 years ago. You will laugh, you will cry, you will rock out to the mentions of your favorites bands from the early 2000s, and your whole heart will get a big squeeze for the bonus Lemmy chapter (IYKYK). The final installment of this series is not one to miss, just be sure to have your headphones and tissues ready when you start.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!

The way I am a SUCKER for this series is a little embarrassing, but who cares. This one had me literally swooning and wanting to giggle. What a way to wrap up the Rebel Blue Series. My heart is full and oh so sad our time on the ranch is over. *sigh*

I cannot believe this is the end for Rebel Blue!! I have absolutely adored this series. Cam & Dusty's love story was so beautiful, and the way Dusty loved and knew Cam was such a lovely thing to witness. No notes!!! Can't wait to read all that Lyla Sage has planned next!

Lyla Sage has done it again! The 4th and final book from the Rebel Blue Ranch was absolutely incredible! I am a sucker for second chance romance and this story was amazing! Cam and Dusty are incredibly well written characters and I fell more and more in love with them as I read the book. I am so sad the rebel blue ranch series has come to and end but Lyla Sage did a phenomenal job with this series! Would highly recommend for anyone who loves cowboy romances, single mom tropes, second chances, high school love, and found family. Thank you NetGalley for an early copy!

Lyla Sage is a (local to me) UT author and IMO her series is just getting better and better with every release.

A dreamy second-chance cowboy romance. The previous books in the series dropped breadcrumbs about Cam and Dusty's high school romance but with little explanation. Cam is a lawyer and single mother who is still influenced by her parents' opinions of her but is left at the altar by the fiance they approved of. Dusty (picture cowboy with longish hair, a nose ring, and the occasional crop top) returned to his hometown a year ago after more than a decade of traveling the world as a seasonal ranch hand. They are both still drawn together, but it takes a while to figure out why it didn't workout in the first place and what's holding them back now.

Tropes:
•Single Parent
•Forced Proximity
•Second Chance
•High School Sweethearts

🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ Explicit Open Door: At least two intimate scenes, explicit language with a variety of sexual acts.

I am an avid Lyla Sage reader and this final installment to the Rebel Blue Ranch series was just what we needed. We were introduced to Cam and Dusty earlier in the series and it was great to get some depth to them with this story. Perfect for readers who enjoy second chances, strong female leads, and of course, cowboys.

What a way to end the Rebel Blue series! I loved getting to know Cam and Dusty, and so happy they found their way back to each other. This series is so much fun, and filled with plenty of heartfelt moments, laughs, and so much love. I’ll miss Rebel Blue so much but this was such a great way to end the series. And that bonus Emmy chapter was the perfect bow on the gift that is Rebel Blue 🫶🥺🩵

What a great end to such an amazing romance series. 🥰 This book was so sweet and I’m not a fan of friends to lovers and second chance romance but Cam and Dusty won me over. Lyla Sage you can’t end this series.

Lyla wrapped up Rebel Blue Ranch series beautifully with Wild and Wrangled. We had hints that Dusty and Cam had a history in the previous books so it was fun to finally see it all play out! I really appreciated that Sage strayed from the enemies to lovers trope here and focused more on "the one that got away". Instead of snarky banter between the two love interests, we got to see true heartache, hope, and passion played out. I also sobbed at the bonus chapter. Saying goodbye to these characters was tough as they feel like a part of my own family at this point!

This book is the perfect second chance romance! Those who have been following the Rebel Blue Ranch series will be delighted at this beautiful final installment featuring Cam and Dusty. Completely swoonworthy, and a nice hug, I really enjoyed this book.
