What is it about hockey romance? You might need to bundle up to watch a game in person, but the genre is undeniably hot. The juxtaposition of brawny, rough-and-tumble jocks letting their guard down for the right person is a winning formula — as evidenced by the current craze of hockey romance book adaptations led by Heated Rivalry, the star-making Canadian series based on Rachel Reid’s Game Changers novels.

Shane and Ilya are in good company, of course. If Heated Rivalry dominated winter watercooler chat, Prime Video’s Off Campus got summer off to a particularly sizzling start. And now in the works, Netflix’s Icebreaker promises to keep the spicy ice sports coming. These series are based on novels, too, and there are many more where they came from.

Here are 11 hockey romance books that are just as steamy and heartfelt as Heated Rivalry. (And who knows? The next viral adaptation might be right around the corner.)
