Lost and Lassoed by Lyla Sage Summary
Lost and Lassoed by Lyla Sage is the book we’ve all been waiting for, and guess how it turns…… From the start, Gus Ryder and Teddy Andersen were set up as the ultimate opposites the type that practically begs for a whole book just to let them battle it out…and maybe, just maybe, fall head over heels in the process. And fall they do.
But, before we dive in, let’s ask ourselves: can two people who can barely be in the same room manage a whole summer under one roof? Spoiler alert: it’s even more complicated (and deliciously tense) than it sounds.
Teddy, who once took life as it came, now finds herself in a bit of a pressure. Her jacket has a hole (tragedy!), her sewing machine is broken ummmm.., and her best friend’s life is racing ahead while she feels left in the dust. Between job woes and friendship fears, Teddy’s left wondering: did she miss the memo on how to adult properly? Enter Gus Ryder.
He’s got his hands full too—single fatherhood with his six-year-old daughter, Riley, a ranch to run, and a family legacy to uphold. Gus has always been the responsible one, the guy who doesn’t ask for help because he’s supposed to have it all together. But here’s the twist: his usual ironclad grip on life is slipping. And in a wild turn of events, he has to accept help from, yes, you guessed it—Teddy.
Watching Gus and Teddy go from rivals to reluctant allies is pure magic. Is Lost and Lassoed spicy? Their chemistry and spice (at some occurances), Sharper than a well-worn lasso. As Teddy steps in to help with Riley, the forced proximity is like lighting a match—every interaction builds tension and reveals secrets.
But here’s the fun part: it’s not just about whether they’ll fall in love (we know they will, it’s a romance, after all). It’s about watching them unravel the beliefs they’ve clung to, whether that’s Gus’s idea that he has to carry the world on his shoulders alone or Teddy’s fear that she’s lagging behind everyone else.
And let’s not forget Riley, Gus’s spunky daughter, who adds a layer of sweetness and hilarity to the mix. Between Riley, the charming Ryder clan, and all the heartwarming moments on Rebel Blue Ranch, Lost and Lassoed becomes more than just a romance.

Book Review: Lost and Lassoed (Rebel Blue Ranch#3)
From page one, you can feel the tension sizzling between Teddy Andersen and Gus Ryder—the kind that screams, “These two are definitely going to fall in love… but not without a fight.” With Teddy feeling left behind as her friends move forward and Gus juggling a massive ranch and single parenthood, it’s safe to say these two have enough baggage to fill a barn. So, naturally, they’re stuck working together for the summer. What could go wrong, right?
Through these witty, heartfelt scenes, Lyla Sage paints a poignant picture of growth and vulnerability. Teddy’s journey of feeling left out as her friends move on is so relatable. Who hasn’t felt that pang when everyone around you seems to have life all figured out? And Gus’s struggle with letting go of control is equally moving—there’s something profoundly relatable about the eldest child complex he’s got going on.
Together, they’re a warm, comforting glow that stays with you. It’s a witty reminder that love sometimes needs a little push—and maybe a touch of rivalry—to truly blossom. But yes for some readers plot setting, depth was missing and the ending may disappoint.
Watching Teddy and Gus begrudgingly warm up to each other, battling both their stubbornness and undeniable chemistry, is hilarious and heart-melting. If you’re a fan of banter that bites, and love, grab this book—it’s a cowboy romance dream come true.
