A Rebel Blue Ranch Novel
by Lyla Sage
She thrives in chaos. He prefers routine. The only thing they have in common? How much they hate each other.
From the bestselling author of Done and Dusted and Swift and Saddled, the highly anticipated next book in the Rebel Blue Ranch series, a small-town romance in which enemies turn to lovers when they're forced to work together during one hot summer.
Teddy Andersen doesn't have a plan. She's never needed one before. She's always been more of a go-with-the-flow type of girl, but for some reason, the flow doesn't seem to be going her way this time.
Her favorite vintage suede jacket has a hole in it, her sewing machine is broken, and her best friend just got engaged. Suddenly, everything feels like it's starting to change. Teddy is used to being a leader, but now she feels like she's getting left behind, wondering if life in the small town she loves is enough for her anymore.
Gus Ryder has a lot on his plate. He doesn't know what's harder: taking care of his family's 8,000 acre ranch, or parenting his spunky six-year-old daughter, who is staying with him for the summer. Gus has always been the dependable one, but when his workload starts to overwhelm him, he has to admit that he can't manage everything on his own. He needs help.
His little sister's best friend, the woman he can't stand, is not who he had in mind. But when no one else can step in, Teddy's the only option he's got. Teddy decides to use the summer to try and figure out what she wants out of life. Gus, on the other hand, starts to worry that he'll never find what he needs.
Tempers flare, tension builds, and for the first time ever, Gus and Teddy start to see each other in a different light. As new feelings start to simmer below the surface, they must decide whether they should act on them. Can they keep things cool? Or will both of them get burned?
"Sage offers a spicy, western take on the enemies-to-lovers trope in her third Rebel Blue Ranch contemporary ... Supporting characters—including cameos from the couples featured in previous installments—add to the cozy small-town charm. Series fans will be pleased." —Publishers Weekly
"Lost and Lassoed has everything I've come to expect from a Lyla Sage novel; delicious tension, heartwarming vulnerability, characters you can't help but root for, and more simmering heat than a Rebel Blue summer sun. Teddy and Gus are what off-limits, opposites-attract romance dreams are made of. Readers will be alternately clutching their pearls and their tissues. Lyla Sage once again pours her heart lovingly into each page on another delightful trip to Rebel Blue." —B.K. Borison, author of Lovelight Farms
"Teddy and Gus are spicy, sizzling, enemies-to-lovers perfection! I loved every moment of their feisty banter, their steamy sexual tension, and their touching emotional journey as they found home in each other's hearts." —Chloe Liese, USA Today bestselling author of the Bergman Brothers series
"I rarely read books in one sitting, but you'd have had to pry Lost & Lassoed from my cold dead hands to get me to put it down. Lyla Sage delivers another scalding hot romance; this one is also a tender rumination on fathers and daughters, and the love that makes a family. Lost & Lassoed burrowed deep into my heart, and I know it's going to stay there for a good long time." —Kate Stayman-London, bestselling author of One to Watch
