I loved Red Card with everything in me. From the very first page, I was completely hooked and yep, I devoured it in one sitting. The emotional pull, the chemistry, the tension… this book had me in a chokehold in the best way.

Cillian? Oh my heart. That man has been through it, and his emotional vulnerability was written so beautifully. You just feel every bit of his pain, growth, and softness. And Rory? She’s the kind of FMC I adore; she is strong, grounded, hilarious, and her ENERGY? Immaculate. She lights up every page.

The friends to lovers trope here is perfection and I thought it was done so well. Sweet, slow burn, and that jealousy? Had me squealing. Watching them fall for each other felt so natural and earned.

I need more from this world ASAP. The team, the banter, the found family vibes are things I never wanted to end. Maren Moore, I’m begging you, give me spin offs, bonus scenes, literally anything!

If you are looking for a rugby romance with real heart, spice, and characters you will want to be best friends with, Red Card is it. 🫶🏻

Thank you to NetGalley, Maren Moore, and Forever for the eARC of this book.
