First published 2027
Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander step onto the ice as teammates for the first time in their careers. After hiding their relationship for over a decade, the married couple now plays openly together. The hockey world has split down the middle. Supportive fans celebrate their courage, but opposition grows stronger each day. The popular podcast Top Shelf leads criticism alongside the #TakeBackHockey movement. The backlash gets louder as traditional voices in hockey push back against their presence. Ilya and Shane finally have what they always wanted: the freedom to be together without secrets. Now they must decide if their love can withstand the biggest test of their relationship. This concluding volume of Rachel Reid's Game Changers series follows the viral success of Heated Rivalry, which streams on Crave and HBO Max.
