Type of read: Lunch/Weekend/Commuter Read

What made me pick it up: One of my friends started reading the Rebel Blue Ranch books. I saw them on their reading recaps, and it was a good fit for a feel-good read.

Overall rating: Do you want a good, slightly naughty, romance with a beefcake of an MMC and an independent but not too much FMC get-together in a forbidden-ish storyline that involves some of the better spicy writing I've read in a while? Then pick up 'Done and Dusted.' No notes, I will be reading more of the Rebel Blue Ranch.

Reader's Note: From Sage's website: "Done and Dusted contains explicit language and explicit, on-page sexual content. Additional content and trigger warnings: Anxiety, trauma after an injury, alcohol consumption, discussions about ADHD, reference to drugs, references to an ex with potentially controlling behavior, death of a parent (past, off-page), panic attacks (one on page), references to toxic childhood environment, references to toxic parental relationships."

Done and Dusted was a very quick read with some sweet and fun moments but overall it was a very average read to me, the things I liked and the things I didn't like evening out in the end.

What I Loved

➳ I'm a softie for books with great dads in them

➳ the themes (ADHD rep, healing after trauma, people being able to change, being desperate to leave your hometown and then coming back to realize this is where you want to be, reevaluating your wants and needs)

➳ I'm invested in Wes/Gus/Teddy's stories now

➳ about 75% of the spice save for

the spitting (why???) and him calling her a slut (I get that's something some people are into but god my knee jerk reaction was to DNF)

I didn't really vibe with the writing style, some scenes gave me full body cringe-shivers and they way this book was milking the "my best friends little sister" thing to death made my eye twitch.

The second half of the book was definitely better than the first but still not 100% for me (I also had really high hopes so maybe that's on me).

I'll still check out the other books in this series because I'm counting on the writing style to have improved as she evolves as an author and I'm invested in the side characters stories now. Also there were some great moments that stuck with me and it left me with a kinda warm feeling now that it's been a couple days since reading. Not a horrible book by a long shot but still not one of my favs.

This book was an easy, shallow read, but such a fun time. I loved how tender and sweet Emmy and Luke were to each other- I was literally melting when he held her in the barn the first time!! I absolutely hated Gus and his overprotective brother-ness. It made me very uncomfortable. And I didn’t enjoy the bedroom talk in this book, it was so different than their relationship dynamic outside the bedroom. All the conflicts wrapped up really easily and quickly at the very end of the book without a lot of internal conflict/tension, which made this a wholesome story (despite the spicy scenes lol). Considering the struggles that we saw hints of (Emmy’s ADHD and trauma from her accident, Luke’s generational trauma), I wish there was more depth, but it was still such a fun time where everything worked out in the end, if you want a happy ending cowboy romance!

Ugh. This may be my new favourite romance. I loveeee Emmy and Luke so much. The setting was great and I loved the ADHD representation. The family are fantastic and Teddy is the best friend ever. I especially loved that there was no 3rd act break up (I hate them). It was a lovely, warm, fuzzy romance that I could easily gravitate back to repeatedly.

Can you please write Gus and Teddy's story, that is all I want.
