About This Product

THE SERIES THAT INSPIRED HEATED RIVALRY • NOW A #1 STREAMING SHOWEnter the world of Game Changers, the series behind the epic enemies-to-lovers hockey romance Heated Rivalry, streaming on Crave in Canada and on HBO Max in the U.S. A grumpy hockey player meets his match in a sunny, out-and-proud social media manager, by New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Reid. The hits just keep coming for Troy Barrett. Traded to the worst team in the league would be bad enough, but coming on the heels of a messy breakup and a recent scandal… Troy just wants to play hockey and be left alone. He definitely doesn’t want to “work on his online presence" with the team’s peppy social media manager.Harris Drover can tell standoffish Troy isn’t happy about the trade, but Harris doesn’t give up on people easily. Even when he’s developing a crush he’s sure is one-sided. And when he sees Troy’s smile finally crack through his grumpy exterior… That’s a man Harris couldn’t turn his back on if he wanted to.Suddenly, Troy’s move to the new team feels like an opportunity—for Troy to embrace his true self, and for both men to explore their growing attraction. But being together behind closed doors is one thing, and for Troy, being in a public relationship with Harris will mean facing off with his fears, once and for all.Game ChangersBook 1: Game ChangerBook 2: Heated RivalryBook 3: Tough GuyBook 4: Common GoalBook 5: Role ModelBook 6: The Long GameBook 7: UnrivaledNeed more Rachel Reid?!

Reviewed in Germany on 6 January 2026Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase Meine MeinungNun ist auch der letzte Band beendet.  Okay. Eigentlich ist es der vorletzte. Aber ich hab die Reihe nicht in der Reihenfolge gelesen. Den letzten Band - The Long Game - hab ich als zweites gelesen.Aber nun zu Troy und Harris.Und oh! Ich liebe ihre Geschichte! Ich liebe die beiden! Und ich liebe diese Buchserie!!!! Es war so schön. Vom Anfang bis zum Ende.Troy lernt man schon in Band 3 kennen und da war er - nicht nett!Ihn aber hier jetzt zu erleben! Wie er viele Dinge bereut und sich von seinem früheren Mannschaftskollegen distanziert. Wie er neu anfängt. Neu anfangen muss. Und dann Harris dazu! Mein Gott. Echt. So eine tolle Geschichte.Es braucht Mut zu sich selbst zu stehen. Mut, anderen gegenüber zu stehen. Und Mut, um zu den eigenen Überzeugungen zu stehen.Troy und Harris. Zwei wundervolle Charaktere.Was mich auch so gefreut hat, Ilya Rozanov spielt eine große Rolle und es gibt ein Wiedersehen mit alten Bekannten!Ich bin einfach nur restlos begeistert und hoffe so sehr, dass diese Bücher bald ins Deutsche übersetzt werden. Weiter hoffe ich, dass die Geschichten von Ryan, Fabian, Eric, Kyle, Troy und Harris einen Weg in die zweite und dritte Staffel von Heated Rivalry finden.FazitIch bin verzaubert,  begeistert, hingerissen, sucht euch was aus.

Customer Reviews Summary

I loved Troy and Harris so much, they are such great characters. I think I need a Harris in my life. Troy calls him 'a walking ray of sunshine', and that couldn't be more true. The way their relationship developed and the pacing were just perfect.The side characters are pretty amazing, too. I loved that we got to see Ilya a lot in this one, as well as some other characters from previous books. But I also have to mention Troy's new teammates, their coach, Harris's family and Troy's mum, because all of them were just as great.This was a true comfort read that made me smile the whole way through
