Heated Rivalry: 2 (Game Changers)

Product Information

And they both belonging to opposing teams are very famous for their on-court rivalry but what people don't know is they have been hooking up for more than 6 years now.

Enemies to lovers is so often done rather quickly and I’m left wondering where the actual being-enemies-part went. booktrovert on “What the stories never said: at the end of the day, if a man wants to kill you, he kills you. Sure this was part of the sex talk but in that moment it’s also crystal clear how long it had truly been since they started.But of course, both of those last scenes then had to be ruined by making them sexual because the two were pretty damn incapable of having one scene where they simply talked. In the prologue, Shane mentions that Ilya has a broken nose and his teeth have gotten replaced quite a few times throughout their hockey career by then, but not once does any of that actually come up in the story as we progress through and see their relationship play out during that time?

I liked how well thought out this was and that it took them a long time to go from enemies to lovers.
