Publisher Description
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 . . .
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A smouldering connection between two rivals erupts into a blazing forbidden romance in Rachel Reid’s heart-pounding pro-hockey rom-com. As captains of their respective teams, Shane and Ilya are each other’s fiercest competitors, both on the ice and in the public eye. But that just makes their electrifying attraction to each other all the more impossible. We loved the way this novel tweaks the typical enemies-to-lovers format, replacing the trope’s usual hatred with a searing professional rivalry that fills Shane and Ilya with explosive frustration and adoring awe—both of which pave the way for knee-buckling steaminess after the buzzer. But as red-hot as it is for two supposed adversaries to hook up in secret, a yearning for tenderness begins quietly underscoring their rivals-with-benefits arrangement, forcing them both to confront what they really want. The sultry bass of Tor Thom’s lush narration is an ideal fit for this irresistible listen.
