Playing For Keeps: Sandusky Jaguars

by Michelle Savage

Gridiron Warriors Series Blurb

Each week, warriors clash on the gridiron to claim victory. Through blood, sweat, and broken bones, the battle rages on. To these warriors, football is more than a game, it’s a religion, a way of life. Their determination and sacrifice echo with every snap, every tackle, and every touchdown.

The playbook is their scripture. The locker room is their sanctuary. The competition is their salvation. But off the field, these warriors continue to fight.

The true test of a warrior is not all about the battles won under the stadium lights, but in the fight for love off the turf. They push through pain, overcome obstacles, and strive for greatness. Not just for themselves, but in the pursuit of love.

Football may be their battlefield but love is their ultimate victory.

3.5 stars. Cameron and Hannah are such a great couple. enjoyed the story but I felt it needed a little more to make everything mesh. I'm not sure if it's a regional thing but I struggled with some of the sentence structure/grammer. otherwise it was a good book.

I love the story build up to Cameron and Hannah and their journey to finding happiness. It is well written and had me all caught up in their drama from start to finish.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
