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.

Story of Ilya and Shane
This is a long term secret relationship to more hockey romance, featuring Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, and is book six in the Game Changers series. This is the final book in the series.
Well, this book had me crying on and off all the way through it. Even though this is a reread for me, I felt it so much more this time around.
There are so many beautiful scenes in this book, the writing is so sweet and loving. There is also lots of spice, lots of longing, some angst and whole lot of Shane and Ilya being so flipping cute together but boy did they have to kind of fight for their HEA.
Narration by Cooper North was excellent. Well worth a listen.
PS. The commissioner can go EAD.
PPS. I kind of have a crush on this series.
What am I going to read now. I feel so lost.
Things to expect in this MM romance are:
6th book in series
Hockey Romance
Professional hockey players
Rival teams
Secret relationship
Calls him sweetheart
Mental health rep
Bit of angst
Lots of longing
Lots of Spicy times
Lots of loving moments

Such a satisfying and smoking sequel!
We first met Shane and Ilya, captains of opposing ice hockey teams, in Heated Rivalry. They fell in love but chose not to declare their relationship or come out. After 11 years of sneaking around and catching stolen moments together, the secrecy is taking its toll. Ilya is depressed. He feels he has given up everything to make the relationship work including moving to Ottawa to be near Shane, but it’s not enough and the idea of spending another 10 years in hiding seems bleak. It’s time for change. I’m a huge fan of this series, I’ve loved every couple and Heated Rivalry was a standout story. Always teasing and able to get under anyone’s skin, Ilya is a great foil to the super-conscientious Shane. The story was fun and riveting, I couldn’t wait to see how things would resolve. Audio narrator Cooper North does his always excellent job, I love his Russian accent for Ilya. I thought it was an interesting choice to use a Russian accent when Ilya spoke in English, but a plain accent when Ilya spoke to other Russians in his narrative tongue. Although this book delivered everything I wanted, I really hope it’s not the end of this brilliant series! Anyone else want to see Luca Haas get his own story?

Just waiting for the movie, now
I've read maybe 8 books my entire life, HR and TLG are two of them. I'm now hoping for the movie version, because if RW&RB can get one, Shane & Ilya's story should.
I really enjoyed the narration on this. The way the accent reverted to standard Amercian accent when characters spoke in their native language was really clever.

wow, what a sequel!
The first half of this book had me in all sorts of feelings about their relationship. I felt sick and scared. I found myself screaming just for them to say exactly what I was thinking.
The second half, I couldn't put down. I needed to finish. It had a hold on me, and I absolutely loved Shane sticking up for himself.
Great story!
