Fiction. Romance. LGBTQIA+ (Fiction.) Nothing interferes with Shane Hollander's game-definitely not the sexy rival he loves to hate. Pro hockey star Shane Hollander isn't just crazy talented, he's got a spotless reputation. Hockey is his life. Now that he's captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, he won't let anything jeopardize that, especially the sexy Russian whose hard body keeps him awake at night. Boston Bears captain Ilya Rozanov is everything Shane's not. The self-proclaimed king of the ice, he's as cocky as he is talented. No one can beat him-except Shane. They've made a career on their legendary rivalry, but when the skates come off, the heat between them is undeniable. When Ilya realizes he wants more than a few secret hookups, he knows he must walk away. The risk is too great. As their attraction intensifies, they struggle to keep their relationship out of the public eye. If the truth comes out, it could ruin them both. But when their need for each other rivals their ambition on the ice, secrecy is no longer an option . . .… (meer)

This rivals-to-lovers romance novel was OK, but having set up the two protagonists as rivals from the first moment they met, and irresistible to each other, I would have liked to see more about their lives not just related to the secret relationship—friends, teammates, and teams didn't feature that much.

I'm still learning things weekly about the romance genre - I read the expression MM romance a few weeks ago and put a few books from a 'best of' MM list in my library Wishlist. This was one of them. Along with the Nothing Special series by AE Via.

OMG, I thought this was close to perfect as a novel. The forbidden love theme created suspense and excitement. I don't think I've seen that theme used to such good effect before.

There were so many brilliantly hilarious moments, and so many touching heart wrenching moments - how satisfying a combo is that!

I've just seen that the Audible blurb agrees with me! “Sexy, hot, funny and sweet, Heated Rivalry is a game changer in sexy sports romance.”

The narrator, Tor Thom - Audible, you nailed it! I just love the tone he gives to Illya compared with Shane - it added so much to the story! Once again, brilliant.

How is it possible I haven't heard of him before and not even listened to one of his books unfortunately - I just watched an interview with him on YouTube. ( )

For not being a sports fan, I've read quite a few sports romances, some better than others.

This one is as perfect as I'm likely to ever read.

The dynamic between these two, plus all the complications keeping them apart, could have been stressful, but instead it's a near-perfect tension all the way through the entire story. I am extremely impressed.

This novel earns its high star rating fair and square. Don't hesitate to read it. ( )

I've read this book so many times it's shameful. A completely self-indulgent read, but at this point it's just so comforting for what ever reason. Objectively this is far from the best romance I've ever read, but I just feel so attached to the characters. I just can't help it, leave me alone. ( )

This was just too good

This isn't even a good enimies to lovers story, it's a freaking amazing enimies and also lovers romance. They don't just dislike each other for one chapter and then fall deeply in love. These two really don't like each other for a good chunk of the book which makes the sex so much hotter.

I love this authors writing style. This is my first book by her but I'm very impressed. She is particularly good at writing dialogue, especially funny dialogue.

I was dreading, but secretly looking forward to a little more heartbreak before their HEA, which was alluded to often but didn't happen. Which is fine.

The characters felt very real. And yes i think I'm in love with Ilya
