Review: This was SO. DANG. FUN. I went into this one pretty much blind - I had seen some people talking about it on Bookstagram and I thought the covers were really fun, so I put a Libby hold on this one plus the sequel (Swift & Saddled). They both became available around the same time, so I figured "Why not, I can just abandon my TBR!" ... and I am SO glad I did because this was exactly what I needed to read. It had a perfect amount of spice (oof) plus really great characters and the absolute BEST setting - I felt like I was *on* the ranch pretty much the entire time I was reading.
I loved both of the main characters in Done & Dusted so much, and I can tell I am going to be ready for any and absolutely all books to come out of the Rebel Blue Ranch series. Highly recommend!
(Re-reading that review it feels like a lot of "I LOVED THIS BOOK" and not a lot of substance, but you get what you get, okay? Just read the book, I LOVED IT.)

some side notes that are sprinkled with spoilers (you’ve been warned):
- i didn’t think the way Emmy & Luke were together in bed made sense - the spitting in the mouth and choking gave me a bit of whiplash when compared to the rest of the story which is pretty mild.
- if a man ever punched another man out of the blue like that in my presence or on my behalf? goodbye. you’re a psychopath, i have no desire to continue things with you.
- i wished more was fleshed out in the family dynamics with Luke. throwing in the thing with his mom felt like it didn’t really go anywhere? but i also appreciated that the conflicts in this book were not centered around a 3rd act breakup! so big props to Sage for that.
