Momma Says: 5 out of 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

With this fifth book in the Slapshot series, Myers gives us another wonderfully written, fast-paced sports romance - and when this author says sports romance, she means it. We get actual game play and talk of behind the scenes team business, but at the same time, it doesn't take over the story.

Alec and Madison's story is an emotional one and does tackle some dark issues, but this couple's unwavering faith in each other is so touching. Rumors and Roughing is a romance and Alec and Madison are scorching hot together, but it's also a story of friendship, faith, and perseverance. Plus, the appearance of past faves in the series is always an added bonus!
