(as of Jan 24, 2026 03:55:48 UTC – Details) THE SERIES THAT INSPIRED HEATED RIVALRY • NOW A #1 STREAMING SHOW
Enter 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.
It all starts here with Scott and Kip’s steamy secret-relationship romance by New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Reid.
New York Admirals captain Scott Hunter takes his pregame rituals very seriously. When a particular smoothie precedes Scott’s breaking his on-ice slump, he’s desperate to recreate the magic…and to get to know the sexy, funny guy behind the counter.
Kip Grady knew there was more to Scott’s frequent visits than blended fruit, but he never let himself imagine being invited back to Scott’s penthouse. Or kissed with reckless abandon—and more. What goes on between them is hot, incredible and frequent…but also only on Scott’s terms and always behind his closed apartment doors.
Scott needs Kip in his life, but with playoff season approaching, the spotlight on him is suddenly brighter than ever. He can’t afford to do anything that might derail his career or the public’s image of what a hockey captain should be. Kip is ready to go all in with Scott—but how much longer will he have to remain a secret?

Kevin Co – January 24, 2026

A swoony, spicy, straightforward gay romance
4.5/5 starsGame Changer is the first book in Rachel Reid’s spicy MM hockey romance series. NHL captain Scott Hunter believes in pre-game rituals. So when a smoothie breaks his scoring slump, he keeps going back for more and it has nothing to do with the cute juice bar barista. Kip Grady is just hustling to pay off his student debt and in preparation for grad school and allows himself to be swept off his feet by Scott. But when the fun turns serious fast, Scott wants more of Kip but cannot come out so Kip must decide if being a secret is enough.This is the one that started it all—the one that made Heated Rivalry possible in the trailblazer or “game changer” that is Scott Hunter. I did love it. It feels like a classic romantic comedy. It’s the quintessential closeted athlete falling in love and having to balance career and truth. It’s a lot of fun and has a lot of charm and not as angsty as you would expect.I loved Scott Hunter. He is just so likable and relatable, and I completely understood what he was going through. I understood Kip too, but boy would I have given in. I don’t know if I just have no self respect whatsoever, but I’d have been willing to be a millionaire’s dirty secret. The standout of the book that really elevates (and carries) the story is its swoon-worthy ending—utterly romantic and certainly what romcom dreams are made of.Game Changer is a swoony, spicy, straightforward gay romance.

So good
At times, I felt like their connection was based solely on hooking up, but the latter half of the book really was sweet and romantic and you could feel the connection between Scott and Kip, and I just loved their whole story. I think, after having read this after watching Scott and Kip’s episode of the Heated Rivalry, I went into it already halfway in love with Scott and Kip and knew I would love the book regardless, because I really loved their episode. I think the television episode does a better job at showing the angst and the deep love, a bond and connection that goes deeper than just s*x. I absolutely loved Scott though; he was so pure and adorable and shy. I loved Kip too! He was such a sweetheart and so deserving of all that is good. It’s such a hard line to walk of being in love and wanting to show that person off, but being afraid to come out with so much on the line. I really felt for Scott, and I just wanted to hug him. This book definitely has a different vibe than Heated Rivalry (that one is enemies to lovers, this is more insta love), but I felt like it was just as good. And I know how important Scott and Kip’s relationship and their journey is to Shane and Ilya’s story (Scott and Kip walked so Shane and Ilya could run), and that alone means they will always have a special place in my heart.

Absolutely loved it. Scott and Kip have my heart 🫐
I have 0 clue why people decide to skip this book and dive directly into Heated Rivalry because Game Changer is an AMAZING book.Scott and Kip are so adorable, I don’t have enough words to describe them.Their meet cute was more than that, cute is not a good enough word, and I love how insta-lovie it felt. We know for a fact that when Scott laid eyes on Kip it was Game over for him… or a game changer, however you wanna see it.I liked how both of them thought they’d never have a chance with the other, only to end up being the love of each other’s lives.They were so stup dly in love with one another it’s not even funny. Like… it’s a good thing not a lot of people saw them together cuz it would’ve been impossible to pretend they didn’t think the other one was the best thing that walked on the face of the Earth.Even though this was insta-love, and super spicy from the beginning, this book also tackled some serious issues, and the couple did went through quite a few things to get their HEA. It wasn’t a walk in the park, and they both dealt with the reality of their situation in different ways.It was heartbreaking sometimes to watch them navigate the landm!ne it is to date a pro athlete, how their insecurities and fears sometimes played a big role in their decisions, but I loved seeing them overcome all that by communicating and being there for each other.I am excited about this series, especially now that the show is out, and I am incredibly happy I listened to my gut and started the series with this book instead of Shane and Ilya’s.Scott Hunter walked so the others could run, and Kip was there to hold his hand through all that, being the best boyfriend to ever exist and Scott’s biggest supporter. Our boy Scotty truly deserves all the love, support and appreciation. He is absolutely amazing and he deserves people in his corner to have his back and call him family.5✨️ are not enough for this one. I LOVED IT doesn’t quite sum up how I truly feel about these two and their journey and love. I am obsessed.Please start the series with this book, you will not regret it, and Scott deserves to have his story read. My baby deserves the world.

Livro tocante e conseguiu me dar esperanças no amor novamente. Eu fico muito feliz quando vejo que histórias de romance leve não são mais reservadas para pessoas hetero.

Quelle histoire… Même si le livre est en anglais, la lecture se fait très facilement si vous avez un bon niveau d’Anglais (et le dictionnaire kindle est très pratique). Les scènes de smut sont bien écrites et l’histoire est vraiment addictive. J’ai même pleuré à quelques passages.
