About this audiobook

THE SERIES THAT INSPIRED HEATED RIVALRY • NOW A #1 STREAMING SHOW

Enter the world of Game Changers, the series behind the epic enemies-to-lovers hockey romance Heated Rivalry, streaming on Crave in Canada and on HBO Max in the U.S.

New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Reid brings you exactly what you want—more Shane and Ilya!

To the world they are rivals, but to each other they are everything.

Ten years.

That’s how long Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov have been seeing each other. How long they’ve been keeping their relationship a secret. From friends, from family…from the league. If Shane wants to stay at the top of his game, what he and Ilya share has to remain secret. He loves Ilya, but what if going public ruins everything?

Ilya is sick of secrets. Shane has gotten so good at hiding his feelings, sometimes Ilya questions if they even exist. The closeness, the intimacy, even the risk that would come with being open about their relationship…Ilya wants it all.

It’s time for them to decide what’s most important—hockey or love.

It’s time to make a call.

Sigh. We finally get more Shane and Ilya. They are my favorite couple in this series so far because they have the most unique relationship. They both have very dominant personalities which make for an interesting dynamic. The conflict in this story is fairly expected. Angst exists in the story, but it isn't overwhelming. I enjoyed Cooper North's narration of Ilya and Shane, and I hope we will have more even if it is just tidbits. ****possible hockey related spoiler here*** I started reading this after both my teams were eliminated from Stanley Cup contention, and I needed a hockey pick me up story. The thing is... Rachel Reid might have a crystal ball because the cities that make it to the Stanley Cup in this book might be this year's final contenders.

I was not fully prepared for the emotions that I experienced in this story! Getting to their HEA is not easy for Ilya and Shane, but the commitment they have to each other holds them together. There are bumps, there are barriers, both external and internal, and the more they go through, the more they grow together <3
