I really enjoyed this book. It wasn't anything special, and I did get kind of bored halfway through because they got together really quickly, but I liked it. The found family aspect was great and I will definitely be continuing this series.

I read Swift and Saddled almost immediately after reading D&D and I'm so glad I did! Lyla Sage knows how to write delightful, sweet, spicy, low angst romance. Wes and Ada are the epitome of city girl x country boy and I loved every second. 

I'm once again sat here wishing Meadowlark was a real place that I could move to. I want to visit the shops and bars and get to know all Ryders and their friends. 

A depressed hero??? Who talks about previous episodes??? Who acknowledges that he takes meds for his depression??? I love Wes so much. He's so important!! And the way he loved Ada down was just ahhhh!!

I adore this series so much. It’s sweet and heartfelt but has the perfect little hit of angst. I cannot wait for Gus and Teddy’s book!

This book was phenomenal. The narrators really brought it to life in the best way. I loved the meet cute. I loved the way Ada and Wes opened up to each other. I loved their chemistry and passion. I loved the mental health representation. I loved how supportive they were of each other's dreams. I loved how the side friendships evolved. I loved everything about this book.
