A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!
Shane and Ilya’s story, first seen in Heated Rivalry, continues in this long-awaited hockey romance from Rachel Reid.
"Everything you could want from this magnetic couple! A passionate, sexy, emotional sequel that grips your heart! Shane and Ilya forever!" —#1 NYT Bestseller Lauren Blakely, author of Hopelessly Bromantic
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.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Reid's Game Changers series debuts in print with this terrific sixth romance, a sequel to Heated Rivalry. Closeted NHL rivals Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov have secretly been in a loving relationship for 10 years. The off-season is all domestic comfort and plenty of hot sex, but the season keeps them apart and the career impact being openly gay and in love would have made it tough for them to come out, especially while competing against each other. Still, hiding is taking its toll on them both. Ilya starts seeing a therapist to deal with his depression and loneliness. Meanwhile, Shane is disturbed by a series of meeting with NHL commissioner Roger Crowell, who objects to players' liberal activism. Shane and Ilya have plenty of fun on the ice—especially at an All-Star Skills Competition—but things get complicated when they're outed by a viral video right before they have to face each other in the playoffs. Reid's characters—including many familiar faces for series fans—are all charming and sexy, and she mixes humor, hockey, and positive messaging with aplomb. This is another success in a fabulous series that will have fans longing for more.
