4.5 STARS!!!
Rough and Ready was a sweet sports romance that's light, easy and steamy, with just a tad bit of drama. I loved the characters and the storyline. Tanner and Elara made the perfect couple because they weren't perfect people, but when it came to something or someone they cared about they put 100 percent into their actions. The only thing that stopped me from rating this book 5 stars was that I felt Tanner spent too much effort worrying about Elara's past instead of just focusing on them when he found out what happened. However, even though I wished he hadn't dwelled on Elara's past so much, I absolutely enjoyed this story and I look forward to reading more from this author. Would I recommend this book to romance readers? Yes! I definitely think it's a story worth reading.

A quick and fun read! The characters are sweet and funny. A little snark, sass and fireworks. Each make a few stupid decisions but the relationship plays well and add in a little basketball and football and you have a winning combination.

Hello, Tanner. I mean, can you say romance? The flowers....just read this book and see the flower delivery and tell me you didn't swoon a little. Elara is the perfect match for him and I just love this series!

This is the third book in this series and we have all been waiting for Tanner's story, he captured our interest since the first book and I was dying to know about him. I have to say that when Elara first made her opinion I could not stand her, and I never really got her justification for her confrontation, she was wrong that soured my opinion of her. Tanner is awesome and the whole time you want him to get whatever he wants, unfortunately he wants Elara. As the story continues you start worming up to her and she did go thru a traumatic time and she luckily meets and has Tanner. It is always fun to read of the previous characters, so I am thinking this is it for this bunch.

I loved it!! I did like one of the other in the series a tiny bit better but I still loved this one!!! This is Tanner and Elara book, and can I just say?! Tanner is so freaking yummy!!!!!! Tanner is a pro football player and Elara is ex WNBA baller (love that name!) These two together are 🔥🔥🔥!!!! Omg and Elara ex?! What a scumbag!! I hope that stuff only happens in books!!! Geez anyway! This book has a little bit of everything! Definitely don't miss out on this book!! Thank you NetGalley and penguin random house publishers for sharing this book with me!
