About

Shane and Ilya's story, first seen in “Heated Rivalry”, continues in this long-awaited hockey romance from USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Reid.

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.

Reviews

"Reid returns to the story of Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, competing hockey stars who'd been secret lovers for almost a decade when last seen in Heated Rivalry (2019), and narrator Cooper North lends a lively new voice to their tale. As the men learn to communicate and negotiate whether and when to come out to the world-big issues!-North conveys Ilya's depth as well as his mischievous side without turning his Russian accent into a cartoon. Shane is more reserved than Ilya, but with the way North performs both sides of their dialogue, with the two men always completely attuned to each other's rhythms, it's easy to see how they bring out the best in each other. A mature romance, playfully performed."
