College rugby perfection!

Red Card is fun, flirty and full of banter! Cillian and Rory's chemistry hooked me from the start and just kept building.

The "lessons" trope was playful, the tension was on point and the found-family moments with the team added so much heart.

The audiobook was fantastic!! Matt Sykes nailed Cillian's charm, swagger and British accent (and he sure did bring the heat). Stella Hunter's narration was wonderful! She balanced Rory's sass, vulnerability and strength throughout the book so well. Together, they made the story come to life.

Thank you to NetGalley, Hachette Audio, Forever Publishing and Maren Moore for the ALC and ARC in exchange for an honest review.
