5⭐️, it’s excellent, even upon re-reading
Genre/sub-genre: open door and explicit MM contemporary sports (hockey) romance
Narrative voice: dual third person POV past tense
Rep: mental health — depression
This really is a sequel to Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid, and although the two of them work together as standalones within the larger interconnected series, it is really better to read Heated Rivalry before reading this.
What can I say? It really is a delight to spend more time with Shane and Ilya. We knew at the end of Heated Rivalry that they were committed to doing what it would take to be together, but it was sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes funny, and always rewarding to see how they navigate their challenges in The Long Game. I’m sure that this won’t be the last time I reread this fantastic book
