About this listen

Shane and Ilya’s story, first seen in Heated Rivalry, continues in this long-awaited hockey romance from USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Reid.

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.

Need more Reid? Don't miss The Shots You Take—a sweet and sexy hockey romance about two ex-best friends with benefits who are about to discover whether you can ever really have a second chance. Coming March 4, 2025!

I’ve read many MM romances, this whole series, especially Shane & Ilya are my favorite. Would love just one more to see if they win the cup!!

Good stroyline

I've now heard all the books and though I loved Tor's voice for Ilya Cooper North is still a great narrator. This story has very different vibes and that's probably because it's been 2 or so years since we've seen the world from their point of view. Alot can change in that much time. To see that people think Ilya was emasculated because there was so much focus on his mental health just shows you people suck. I felt the emotions this story tried to invoke and appreciate where Ilya and Shane are now. Happy in their new lives and no longer having to hide.

Don't get the hate

I loved this story so much! I felt like it was a pretty realistic view into what their lives would be like. The only thing that I wish would have been a bit different is the descriptions of Illya's mental health. I felt like the author just gave vauge descriptions and didn't necessarily dig in like she could have. I also wish that there would have been a bit more drama (I love some drama) around big events but I think it was overall a great book. I LOVED the narrator so much more than the previous one.

I really enjoyed Shane and Ilya’s story. Until the end, Shane was a bit caught up in being a hockey star; while Ilya was the best boyfriend, giving up so much for Shane. I feel in love with Ilya’s sense of humor and his ability to be true to what was right and the one he loved. I would love to be friends with a real version of Ilya. Enjoyed every minute of this book.

Ilya is my new favorite book boyfriend

I am so glad I didn’t listen to some of the earlier reviews. This was my favorite book in the series.

I’m not going to lie. When I saw that Tor Thom wasn’t the narrator for this, I was a little disappointed. I have listened to Heated Rivalry so much that for me he was Shane and Ilya. However, once I started listening, I loved Cooper’s interpretations of both men. He did a great job. I could really feel the emotions that Shane and Ilya were feeling through Cooper’s voice. His voice for Shane after the fight at Christmas really made me hear how angry Shane was at himself and how he had made Ilya feel. His broken hearted Ilya voice during the same fight was so hard to hear. He really made me feel the panic that was going through Ilya during the plane ride scene and the pure love in Ilya’s and Shane’s voices as they comforted each other after the plane ride. This was a great book made even greater by a narrator who made me feel both the good and bad emotions that Shane and Ilya felt. I highly recommend this audible and Cooper North!

I love Ilya and Shane

Absolutely loved this whole series and this installment to Heated Rivalry was fantastic.
Excellent narration by Cooper North
I listened to the whole series in order so the fact that Tor Thom narrated Heated Rivalry didn’t have an impact on me with the change in narrators that seemed to bother other listeners.

Absolutely loved the integration in this story with Troy and Harris from Tough Guy. I loved their story, so was really happy to have the Ilya side by side input.
Fabulous story. Cried so many times. Loved the emotion these characters displayed for each other. Definitely need a third book to hear what happens in their future together. ❤️

I want more. ❤️❤️

ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE BOOKS
