Story
Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

Macon Davis. My best friend’s brother. My tormentor. My least favorite person. Pothead. Delinquent. A careless, directionless loser. That’s what I used to believe, but I didn’t really know him. And when I finally saw him, it was the best and worst thing to ever happen to me. We burned hot and fast. Passion. Anger. Love. Pain. We were reckless. Naive. We were doomed from the start. When I finally saw Macon Davis for who he was, we both went down in the flames.

From a young age, the only thing in life I've ever taken seriously is hockey. I'm not the guy anyone—besides family and teammates—can count on. This is all true. At least, until a certain curly-haired, blue-eyed goddess comes to me looking for an easy hookup. And hook her up I do. But what's supposed to be a one-night stand doesn't stop at one night. What's meant to be easy sure as hell gets complicated fast. It becomes clear that Addison LaConte is just as much my savior as she is my demise.

I caught the attention of a monster. I didn’t ask for it. Didn’t even see it coming. But the moment I do, it’s too late. Killian Carson is a predator wrapped in sophisticated charm. He’s cold-blooded, manipulative, and savage. The worst part is that no one sees his devil side. I do. And that will cost me everything. I run, but the thing about monsters? They always chase.

Harlow Hayes loves water. In its liquid form. The chlorinated kind she swims in. The perennial droplets soaking her adopted hometown. The waves she ventures out on to observe the ocean. Water, in its frozen state, holds no appeal to her. That's not the only—or most divisive—difference between her and Conor Hart. The arrogant, arresting captain of Holt University's hockey team spends every second not picking fights or partying atop a sheet of it. Plenty of girls fall for the charming lines and that cocky smirk. Harlow knows better. Knows more.

I didn't really consider myself part of my father's legacy...until I found out what he left behind in his will: property, ten acres to be exact, which included the headquarters for his beloved motorcycle club. I had no idea that accepting the terms of my inheritance would thrust me into a battle with the new club president, Wesley Ryan. He's unfathomably handsome, menacing, and formidable in every way. But his derision toward me only makes me cling that much tighter to my birthright. That is, it did until he decides to play dirty.

Contemporary romance meets paranormal mind bender

Publisher's summary
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.

Story
No one knows what happens up at Midnight Manor. The home of the Voss brothers sits like a sentinel looking down on our small town, remaining a mystery. The four brooding billionaires rarely leave the confines of the iron gates, fueling rumors that have existed for decades. When my father dies, all the security I’ve known is ripped away, forcing me to come face to face with the eldest brother, Asher Voss. His outward beauty is just as I’d heard—it belies a predatory nature, irresistibly drawing me in.

Sam Rider is mouthy, bossy, uppity as shit, and I have no choice but to deal with her smart-mouth since she’s my daughter’s teacher. Sam waltzes into our small town on a temporary contract equipped with brochures and more change than a single dad can handle. I never trusted anybody to tell me what to do and I sure as hell won’t start with Sam, ten years younger, a city girl and only in Starlight Canyon for the short haul. I have to watch those sinful pink lips tell me what’s right for three solid months and she won’t stop until I change my mind.

Absolute PERFECTION
I am so in love with Quentin!!!!
Rival Hearts is a football romance, brothers best friend, forced proximity, enemies to lovers, secret relationship, forbidden love, second chance,delicious swoon fest!!!
I have read all of Maggie's books and fall in love with each couple, but Quentin and Madison are my new favorite couple for sure!!
Personally, I think you should read Before the Chaos, the prequel novella, but you don't have to read it to understand the story
Quentin and Madison have some history between them and it isn't pretty. There is 10 years of feelings between these 2 and that's not easy to let go of. Madison hasn't forgotten him, and Quentin has pined more than she knows. Now that they are back around each other, nothing will stop him from getting her back.
Quentin will have you swooning you guys!!! This man is what book husband's are made of. He is such a a good boy 😉 IYKYK
Amy and Lance brought this story to life!!! They are perfect as Quentin and Madison!!! The banter between them is perfect, the emotions, the spice, its all amazing!!! I have listened to alot of Lance and adore him, and this was my first time hearing Amy now i cant wait for more!!!
Rival Hearts is an absolute masterpiece and I can't get enough. Seriously, I just finished 2 days ago and already want to read it again. Go preorder this book and be ready to fall in love with Quentin and Madison!!! Thank you Maggie for this beautiful story!!!

A Man Obsessed
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.
🏈 Football Romance
🏈 Second Chance
🏈 Brother’s Ex Best Friend
🏈 (other) Brother’s Teammate
🏈 Enemies to Lovers
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.

Quentin for the win!!😍😍
𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 is the first book in the Queen City Chaos series, featuring a riveting second chance/forbidden romance for Quentin and Madison. Quentin’s reputation has taken a beating and he needs some PR help when he gets to his new team. Who better to help him than the girl whose heart he broke and never got over.😅 Quentin plans to get Madison back, no matter the cost. Will they finally find a way to be together, or will the outside forces interfere once again?
If you read the heart wrenching prequel, Before the Chaos, you know that this reintroduction was 10 years in the making and it was guaranteed to be full of angst, drama, sizzling chemistry, secrets, and so much more!! I don’t even know what to say! Quentin was the ultimate wrong side of the tracks underdog with everything stacked against him, who made it anyway. His love knows no bounds and when he sets his mind to something, he gets it done. Madison is one lucky woman!😍 I also love that Madison grew up to be a strong, independent woman since the prequel. Everything is top notch— the banter, the drama, the authentic emotions, and the SPICE!! These two bring the heat and the swoon! His tattoos, y’all! Just sayin.’😉 I’m a sucker for that “It’s always been you” vibe, especially when there’s definitely been a villain interfering! You definitely don’t want to miss this book! Watch out for the book hangover though!😂
I listened to the audio version narrated by Amy Hall and Lance Greenfield, and they were fantastic!! They managed to elevate every aspect of the story. The banter was sharper, the emotion was more visceral, the drama more exciting, and yes those spicy scenes had me blushing even harder!!😍 The only thing that could have made it even better would have been a duet format, rather than dual, but that’s just a personal preference. I still loved the experience!! The next book, 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐆𝐚𝐢𝐧, is available in ebook and paperback!! Don’t miss this amazing series!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Rival Hearts
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.

Fantastic performances
Audio: Both these narrators were to me and WOW!! I really enjoyed their performances! I liked the book but I LOVED the audio, so these two really brought it to life. Lance has all the grit and swagger and charisma that I love about Quentin- but also so much heart in the performance. SWOON. And I loved Amy’s range- she brought great vulnerability and emotive resonance to her performance of Madison. Really loved this one.
Book Review:
My first Maggie Rawdon book- but given how sweet and OH SO SEXY this second chance romance is, it’s safe to say this world and her writing have captured my heart! Rival Hearts is the perfect balance of heartfelt tenderness and sultry spice, it’s all heart and heat and a big ole dash of swoon. Charming characters, a fun secondary cast, and oozing charisma, this was a great intro to Maggie!
Sports, second chance, workplace, enemies to lovers, forbidden brother’s (now ex-) best friend…and ex-fiance?! OH cue all the tension, the angst push-pull, and those yummy forbidden vibes that melt me. Quentin and Madison have quite the complicated and heartbreaking history. An epic forbidden love story squashed by poor decisions long before it really got to start. Lost innocence, heartbreak, and regret. Now years later, they are not only forced to reconnect but they are also forced to work together- and ultimately forced to confront their past. The mistakes and misunderstandings, and their festered longing.
Their forced proximity demands their story move deliciously quickly- so the grovel drama and hurt definitely doesn’t overstay it’s welcome as we dive back into a complicated, secret, explosively hot second chance. But, the stakes are even higher now- more than feelings. Careers, friends/family, dreams, and the weigh expectations all make it even more complex of a situation. But the draw of these 100% is easy and straight forward. Quentin wants to right his wrong, and Madison just can’t seem to keep the wall around her heart when he goes on the offensive to score her, heart and soul. Their chemistry is really cute. And the spice is definitely SPICING in this- lordy, these two sizzle.
And while certainly these two have some baggage, the angst is actually not super thick. Quentin makes it clear early on he is ALL in early on, so while they have fantastic bantery push-pull moments, we also know where their hearts stand. They just have to re-learn to trust and to be vulnerable enough to go for it. Definitely more “will they” and “won’t they” LOL, but it means we get so much spice! I do wish we’d gotten to develop their relationship a bit more in their “current state”- it’s been so long, and they were barely together in the past, so I feel like they don't really know each other anymore, but they go from zero to one hundred and once they clear the air about past stuff, I feel like their relationship didn’t develop further emotionally. But, their physical connection is fire, and they are certainly cute together. AND the spice is really really good- the bedroom chemistry is magnetic.
While this can be read as a standalone, I would highly recommend reading the novella about them because it gives a more complete picture of their past. Also there are a lot of other Maggie characters from prior series in this. There were times when I felt there was a lot of secondary character action and I wasn’t super invested because I don't know the characters, BUT it also made me want to get to know them, especially her brothers who clearly had their own bumpy loves stories.
This was a great intro to the Maggie world and I’m so excited to spend more time there. It’s a cute, spicy, and fast-paced read that had me grinning, and introduced me to a world of sports drama and stories told and untold I can’t wait to discover. Excited to read more Maggie!

more than a typical football romance
To fully grasp Madison and Quentin's journey, explore "Before the Chaos," the prequel novella. This narrative uncovers the evolution of their relationship, the repercussions of yielding to temptation, and the poignant moments they face.
I was deeply moved by this book. Quentin's background, navigating between family members, and mistreatment by certain individuals evoke a desire in me to advocate for him. Despite his inherent goodness, he, like many of us, made decisions that altered his life trajectory. Even before meeting Madison, he made regrettable choices, including allowing unworthy influences to cloud his judgment. It took a decade for him to rectify these missteps and have a chance at winning Madison back when he was transferred to play quarterback in her city.
Throughout their ten-year separation, Madison never truly moved on from Quentin. Their reunion in the new city catalyzed a positive change in both their lives. Despite her initial doubts about Quentin, she eventually realizes his irreplaceable value through his words, his ability to make her feel special, and his capacity to bring her genuine happiness.
Their profound connection and mutual magnetic pull were undeniable. While Quentin always recognized Madison as his soulmate, it took her some time to arrive at the same conclusion.
This book led me on an emotional journey. My heart ached for Madison and Quentin and the challenges they faced. I was captivated by the story and found it difficult to set the book aside. It's a remarkable read, and the conclusion was truly satisfying
Amy Hall and Lance Greenfield did a great job with the audio of this book! Lance has that raspy voice that is perfect for a dominating character and on the flip side, Amy has a fantastic tone that is lovely. Her male voice is completely on point too! Together they made this audio such an easy listen!

Loved the story
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.
