Romance fiction has surged in popularity recently, thanks in part to dedicated BookTok and Instagram communities, and several subgenres have emerged – gone is the tame bodice ripping of your grandma’s Mills & Boon novels. Now it’s romantasy, paranormal romance, dystopian love and, perhaps the fastest-growing of them all, sports romance. And then there’s a sub-subgenre: queer sports romance.

To get even more specific, one sport above others has been the setting: the uber-macho world of ice hockey.

The dynamic landscape of current events often brings forth significant discussions. Monitoring these developments provides crucial insights.

‘Heated Rivalry’ Review: HBO Max’s Horny Hockey Drama Is a Playful Gay Romance for Grown-Ups

'Letterkenny' veteran Jacob Tierney wrote and directed the six-part series about a pair of rising hockey stars who fall into a steamy affair.

Sidney Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin entered the NHL in 2005. Over 20 years, the Canadian star and his Russian counterpart have engaged in one of the great rivalries in all of sports. They’ve won titles and medals and scoring crowns, and they’re both still playing (with the same franchises that drafted them), having claimed positions among hockey’s all-time elite.

But what if they were also having an intense, sweaty love affair? 

That’s the veiled hypothetical at the heart of HBO Max and Crave‘s new six-part romantic drama, Heated Rivalry, based on the book by Rachel Reid and written and directed by Letterkenny veteran Jacob Tierney — though don’t go in expecting all that many direct similarities to Letterkenny. Heated Rivalry may have some comic elements, because blustery male bonding is often funny, but it’s a sincere, steamy love story for grown-ups — less The Cutting Edge and more Challengers, without the pesky “Zendaya” point of the triangle.
