5.0

I’m not a hockey romance fan (I decided to check out the Heated Rivalry hype), but this book gets 5 stars. I actually liked it better than the first one. One full star goes to Ilya, who is now one of my favorite MM romance characters of all time. 

I don’t think Shane and Ilya have any loose threads but I wish they could have another book some day.
