There were certain scenes in this book where my heart was a literal melted goop on the floor. It was so cute.
Heated Rivalry is probably my all time favourite gay romance, and I have so much love for Shane and Ilya. So getting to read them again was great. I loved being immersed into this world of sexy gay hockey players again.
Few criticisms, I can't say I loved the way Ilya's mental health issues were handled. Also I don't understand why everyone is throwing so much shade on Shane, about not being understanding of Ilya's issues. That's fine, he didn't know but when he found out, he was supportive of him.
Also there were wayyyyy too many characters. A lot of characters making appearences, and it was hard to keep track.
Otherwise, this is an amazing book, gonna be a comfort read for me.
Great end to the series, I'm so glad I read it and experienced them ✨
