Pro football might see me as their favorite underdog, but Madison Westfield would rather see me six feet under.

My ex-best friend’s little sister has every reason to hate me. I took her boyfriend’s spot on this team, her brother might lose his too, and our short-lived engagement years ago is part of the reason our families are locked in a grudge match that has the whole league on edge.

Ruining me would fix most of her problems, but she's stuck trying to work a PR miracle with my career instead.

Making my way through her build-a-better-image checklist is the kind of torture I'll gladly sign up for, especially if I get to help her prove everyone wrong.

But it means we're spending a lot of time alone together, and when it comes to Madison, I'll take any chance she gives me. Even if it means there's hell to pay—on and off the field.

Quentin is a golden retriever rolled up in a tattooed bad boy! He was thoughtful, patient, and completely obsessed with his girl! 10 years! This man waited for her for 10 years! Madison was such a spitfire and didn't let Quentin off that easily, but he didn't have a problem proving himself at all! The chemistry was off the charts good! The support and love that Quentin and Madison have for each other was so beautiful! I enjoyed this one a lot and can't wait for Bea and Cooper's story next!

AUDIO: Amy Hall and Lance Greenfield narrated this one. They both did a great job! Amy was fantastic! She was perfect for Madison, and her male voice was dang convincing. I forgot that it was her speaking!

Great second chance romance

I really enjoyed the story but the narrators voices didn’t match what I had in my head as their voices especially the male narrator. Still worth a listen but I think I recommend just reading the book. This story is fantastic though so if you can only listen to it is still worth it.

Loved the story

I have had this book on my TBR for a long time, and since the audio came out, I have tried to make sure that I would listen to it.

I liked the story and the characters. The audio was done really well, Amy Hall and Lance Greenfield narrated this one, and I liked them for the characters' voices. I don't know that I have listened to Amy Hall before, but she quickly got added to my list of ones to listen to.

This story will keep you interested, and I enjoyed the twists that came with it.
I will listen to the next in the series. I am invested now!

Hiiiiii! I’m back and the Maggie Rawdon obsession is in full swing 😍😍 I love everything she writes and I can never get enough. I don’t often reread books in the same year, but for Maggie’s first audio? I absolutely jumped on this.

There is a prequel to this novel called, Before the Chaos, it’s not required but it will absolutely set up taking Rival Hearts to the next level.

I love Madison and Quentin with my whole soul. 10 years after their story started, we’re back for more. Listening to them on audio took me right back.

I love them. Have I said that already? I LOVE THEM! Quentin knows he messed up. But now he’s back for his girl and nothing and no one will stand in his way. He’s possessive and jealous but also perfect and supportive. I just want to squeeze his tattooed teddy bear self.

Maggie Rawdon’s spice is always my favorite. Some things I read had me squealing in joy. I loved this book and it was the perfect start to her new series.

Rival Hearts was an absolutely beautiful and emotional story of second chances and a love that never died. Quentin and Madison’s journey started in Before The Chaos and I would absolutely recommend reading the prequel before Rival Hearts in order to understand the complexities of their relationship. It will help you appreciate Quentin even more and you won’t be able to help but to fall in love with him!!

Madison was such a strong and independent character. She hates Quentin for their past, but when she’s forced to work with him, she realizes that the man she thought she knew before and thought was an illusion really does still exist. I liked that she was willing to listen to Quentin and how she fought for him.

Quentin Undergrove is EVERYTHING!!! I couldn’t love a character more. He’s a filthy talking bad boy with a heart of gold for the woman he loves. His devotion to Madison was swoonworthy. He had always loved her and although he never felt he was good enough for her, he would do anything to make her happy. His determination to win back her heart melted my heart and his growth was so powerful. He’s the ultimate book hero.

Lance Greenfield and Amy Hall narrated the audio and they were fantastic as Quentin and Madison. Lance gave me all the feels as Quentin and while Amy Hall was new to me, I absolutely loved her performance of Madison. Both conveyed all the emotions of the story and gave me all the feels.

The push and pull between Quentin and Madison was absolute FIRE! The snarky, flirty banter between them was off the charts and the tension between them leaped off the pages. They had to work through a lot of issues and learn to forgive a painful past, but their connection was just as strong in the present as it was in the past. With each other, they can be their true selves. Rival Hearts was angsty, swoony perfection with strong characters and I am so excited to see what’s next in this new series.

Rival Hearts is a second chance, sports romance (football) with Madison and Quinton who share a past 10 years prior and are just now seeing each other again. It’s no secret I love a second chance romance story and all things sports, real and in fictional romance, so this what right up my ally. Both books are full of angst, family drama, forbidden romance, and of course that side of spice 😉. @amyhallnarrates and @lance.greenfield narrate Rival Hearts in dual bringing each character to life and giving us the emotions behind each characters feelings and personality.

LOVE LOVE LOVED!!!! I love Quentin Undergrove. I love Madison Westfield. I love Quentin + Madison together. This second chance romance was done to perfection. There was tension and angst WITHOUT miscommunication and a 3rd act break up. Read this after you read the 30k novella, Before the Chaos. You won't regret it!

Maggie - YOU QUEEN! These characters are PERFECT. It’s truly a fantastic continuation of all the goodness from Before the Chaos! Quentin has the bad boy exterior but is a complete obsessed when it comes to HIS Madness. Mads has grown up so much, is a little jaded, but is so fierce in her job and for her loved ones. I cannot gush enough about the chemistry and spice between these MCs - so yummy. Every single thoughtful gesture and heart felt confession had me swooning. As usual, our side characters bring the whole story up to another level. I love all the cameos! My only ask - I need to see justice for the villain - like a full fledged take down. I’m still boiling about all of it. But also, I’m so very much here for the Bea and Cooper’s story next!

Audio Notes:
Dual Narration by Amy Hall and Lance Greenfield. This performance brought an already great book to life. Amy’s voice paired perfectly with Madison’s character. I would have preferred a different male narrator, as Quentin embodies a rough-around-the-edges professional quarterback. Lance’s voice lends more towards an academic sound. I would still highly recommend this audiobook - this story is full of angst, drama, tenderness and spice (all the best of romance).

Recommended to...  
All the sports readers who love the extra spicy rival families to lovers vibes.
