New York Admirals goalie Eric never thought his friends-with-benefits arrangement with much-younger Kyle would leave them both wanting more…

Veteran goaltender Eric Bennett has faced down some of the toughest shooters on the ice, but nothing prepared him for his latest challenge—life after hockey. It's time to make some big changes, starting with finally dating men for the first time.

Graduate student Kyle Swift moved to New York nursing a broken heart. He'd sworn to find someone his own age to crush on (for once). Until he meets a gorgeous, distinguished silver fox hockey player. Despite their intense physical attraction, Kyle has no intention of getting emotionally involved. He'll teach Eric a few tricks, have some mutually consensual fun, then walk away.

Eric is more than happy to learn anything Kyle brings to the table. And Kyle never expected their friends-with-benefits arrangement to leave him wanting more. Happily-ever-after might be staring them in the face, but it won't happen if they're too stubborn to come clean about their feelings.

Everything they both want is within reach…they just have to be brave enough to grab it.

Really enjoyed the beginning of this story, and the characters are interesting. The constant back and forth between Eric and Kyle did start to drag on a little bit. Yes, we understand that there is an age gap. The angst started to feel like whining, and I say, "Bite me to anyone who thinks 40 is old for an athlete. I will show you what this old lady can do with a dodgy rotator cuff."

All that said, I enjoyed the functional part of Eric and Kyle's relationship.

This book felt like a lead up story. A few characters that have dropped by in earlier books reappeared a bit too conveniently. More Ilya and Shane now please!

Cooper North is definitely on my must listen narrator list too.

Good story. Good narration.

I enjoyed listening to Common Goal, another cool love story in Rachel Reid’s series. She does well writing raunchy intimate scenes with delicious attention to detail of the whole “act” including the prep/foreplay and afterwards. I would have loved a couple more hot encounters, but this was more than satisfactory.
The most annoying part of this story was the drawn out “will they won’t they” aspect which I feel went on for too long, but I’m not one for drawn out angst, so others may quite enjoy that aspect of this book (and indeed the whole series).
Cooper North did well, he has such a soothing voice and he is easy to listen to with excellent pronunciation, pace & pitch. All-in-all, a fab listen.

Lovable characters & steamy scenes

Another enjoyable book from Rachel Reid, however, not my most favorite. In this book there are quite a few characters who show up from her first book in the series, "Game Changer", such as Scott & Kip, so make sure you read that book first. Things will make more sense if you do. This is the fourth book in the series and in my opinion, "Game Changer", is the best book in the series so far.

Make Sure to Read Book #1 ("Game Changer") First!

Great slow burn story. Loved how it showed characters who are not perfect but accepting of each other. Great narrator as well.

Such a nice story of finding someone who gets you!

I adored heated rivalry and was not disappointed with this one either. Both performances were amazing and I truly cannot get enough of these hockey players. If I had any complaints it was only for the story to be longer because I just want more!

Another great story!

This couple was sweet and the story was cute like Tough Guy. I’m spoiled by the passionate, hot, aggressive, extremely humorous Heated Rivalry. Shane and Ilya are still my favorite couple. Looking forward to The Long Game!🔥🔥🔥 and Thor Tom rocks!

Sweet couple

Not to diss Thor Tom, not at all, but I am *so* happy we have a new narrator for the last three books. Cooper’s voice, accents and overall performance are *chef’s kiss* p e r f e c t i o n. Can’t wait for hear the next two…going to be epic. Hashtag Ilya and Shane forever.

Story even better with Cooper!
