"The book that got me into hockey romance." —NPR's Weekend Edition
Nothing interferes with pro hockey star Shane Hollander’s game.
Now that he’s captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, he won’t let anything jeopardize that—definitely not the sexy rival he loves to hate.
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. Publicly, they’re enemies. Privately, they can’t stop touching each other.
The smart thing to do? Walk away, once a few secret hookups turn into a struggle to keep their relationship out of the press. The truth could ruin them both. But for Shane and Ilya, secrecy is soon 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. This is an irresistible read.

Every waking moment…
Ilya and Shane, and their happiness has consumed my every waking moment. The book is filled with depth and emotional dimension which is surprising considering the main draw this story has. However, the yearning, the lusting and then eventually the love these characters develop is gleeful, charming, and utterly infatuating. A must read if you enjoy the shows, you get the insider scoop and internal-monologues of the characters you will be sure to fall in love with too.
Stunning
This book could be 5 times as long and I would devour every word. I kept waiting for the big “oh no everything is going wrong” moment but it just reads like a dream.
