Lost and Lassoed
Teddy Andersen, a go-with-the-flow woman, finds her life in a small town feeling stagnant as her friends move forward. Meanwhile, rancher Gus Ryder is overwhelmed by his responsibilities and his spirited six-year-old daughter. When Gus reluctantly hires Teddy, his sister's best friend whom he can't stand, their forced proximity leads to unexpected sparks. As they navigate their individual challenges and growing attraction, they must decide if their simmering feelings are worth the risk.
While this is the third installment in the Rebel Blue Ranch series, it functions as an interconnected standalone, meaning the central romance is self-contained and can be followed without reading the earlier books [1.2.4].
