Heated Rivalry

An epic enemies-to-lovers MM hockey romance from USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Reid, perfect for fans of sports romance, rival captains, and forbidden love on the ice.

Nothing comes before the game for professional hockey star Shane Hollander. As the newly appointed captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, his focus is absolute—and he refuses to let anything threaten his hard-earned position. Especially not the infuriatingly attractive rival he loves to hate.

Ilya Rozanov, captain of the Boston Bears, is everything Shane isn’t. Arrogant, magnetic, and devastatingly talented, Ilya rules the ice like a self-crowned king. No one challenges him—except Shane. To the public, they’re bitter enemies locked in an intense NHL rivalry. Behind closed doors, their chemistry is impossible to ignore, and their connection turns dangerously addictive.

What starts as secret hookups quickly becomes something far more complicated. Walking away would be the smart choice—but desire, pride, and emotion collide in a high-stakes game where exposure could destroy their careers and reputations. With the media watching and their teams depending on them, one wrong move could cost everything.

Packed with slow-burn tension, fiery banter, elite athletes, and high-heat romance, this MM hockey romance novel delivers a powerful story of rivalry, vulnerability, and love against all odds. A must-read for fans of Rachel Reid, LGBTQ+ romance, and enemies-to-lovers sports romance.
