  "Every book in the series follows the exact same narrative structure." and "certain body parts are described, maybe not how people who have those body parts might describe them." You hit the nail on the head, Jack

  "I already chose you, Hollander" makes me cry every single time I reread The Long Game. Truly the best of the series. 😭 ❤

  it’s not surprising that jacob chose heated rivalry in particular to adapt. shane and ilya definitely make the most interesting couple in this universe<br><br>edit: when i say interesting i meant the whole two rivaling top athletes in an intense sport and culture like hockey who are dealing with their own personal and shared stakes while being in love and being in the public eye has a lot of interesting elements to adapt into visual media. not about which book is most well written

  It&apos;s not just Rachel Reid&apos;s formula. It&apos;s the formula of the entire romance genre. The formula is actually the appeal for most romance readers.

  100% agree with your ranking. Also, while these are not great literature (by any means), they&apos;re fun palate cleansers (from heavier narrratives) and really satisfying once you&apos;ve watched &quot;Heated Rivalry&quot; and need more of that world. I generally steer away from romance books, but I read all 6 gamechangers on a 2-wk vacation in March. Fun for what they are. Glad I&apos;d seen the TV series first. Also glad to get into Ilya&apos;s head a bit. That was a nice bonus. Still find some of these men overly &quot;talky&quot; in instances where they likely wouldn&apos;t be. I think showrunner Jacob Tierney does an excellent job in streamlining dialogue and &quot;showing not telling&quot; with facial expressions, etc. Finally, mirror scene for the win!

  I think for me the best bit in both Heated Rivalry and Role Model is their explorations of the main characters internalised homophobia, particularly in Role Model that was done really really well imo
