About the Book
"British bad boy Cillian 'Kill' Cairney is ruthless on the rugby pitch. After getting a permanent red card from his team in London, the only team that will have him is an Ivy League school in New Hampshire. But the guys hate him, his coach doesn't trust him, and worst of all? His starting position is in the hands of his coach's fiery, rugby-obsessed, very off-limits daughter. Not only does he have to earn his coach's respect, but Kill has to earn Rory's-and nothing has ever seemed more difficult. That is, until she approaches him with a proposition that could benefit them both... Rory St. James has spent all her life immersed in rugby. Which is... part of the problem. She's tired of being friend-zoned. She wants to get the guy, and to do that, she needs the frustratingly charming Cillian to teach her. But the more time they spend together, the more lines begin to blur. In a game where trust and loyalty are tested, who will be the winner? Or will love be the final red card?"--Book Synopsis

Another brilliant book from Maren Moore. She is one of my top romance authors, and this is just another example as to why that is. The chemistry between the two main characters was burning me through my kindle screen. I felt so engrossed in their conversations and interactions throughout the book. Whether it was a funny scene with the team, their banter when alone, or their tension. Maren did such an amazing job with Cillian and Rory that I was rooting from them by their first interaction. Even with his bad boy reputation, he was confusingly mesmerized by her from the start. He may have tried to keep his distance from everyone initially, but as a reader I was already begging him to let them in and show them his true self. I was rooting for Cillian so hard it wasn’t even funny, especially after seeing him with his sister! What a man! Not to mention, the team dynamic with Rory was so adorable. I loved how they respected her and her opinion. The team also had such funny personalities all around, that made their game nights a blast to read. I am beyond excited for the continuation of the Prescott University series. For those who care. This book is a romance book in a sports environment with athletes, not a sports book with romance. There is not a lot of on pitch (field) action, but it was still a great sports romance. I very much recommend it!!
