Wild Card by Maggie Rawdon
5.0
(I received an ARC for this book)
Trigger Warnings include:
discussions about anxiety, depression, and therapy; leaked sex tape; slut/sex shaming; verbally and emotionally abusive parent; descriptions of violet play in football and injuries; descriptions of motorcycle accident and graphic injuries; descriptions of accident recovery; sexual scenes and kinks including exhibitionism, voyeurism, degradation, praise, come play, food play
There are no words for my love for this series. Easily one of my top football romance series! If you’ve been reading the prior books, Scarlett and Tobias are familiar faces. (I’ve been waiting for the moment I got to devour their book!) And devour I did!! Tobias decided from the start that he needed to stay away from Scarlett. She deserved all the things he just couldn’t give her. But Tobias being Tobias, he swoops in and saves Scarlett from an awful date because he literally can’t stay away from her. And then, it’s her turn to save Tobias. Who needs saving from himself. There seriously was no one better for the job. The “stop fighting it and just do it already” started from the beginning thanks to their yummy tension, even before they were in the same room. So when they’re under the same roof?! Their open communication was such a turn on! Especially when all Tobias wanted to do was hide from her. He wanted to be someone who deserves her, he wanted to earn that chance. And earn he did! Everything about Tobias Westfield was enjoyable to read. Even the parts that hurt my heart. And Scarlett?! It’s hard to tell which character I loved more!
