About this listen
I should hate him. But after learning the truth, how could I not fall for him?
MasonMy rookie season in the NHL started with a gut punch.
There he was, standing in my locker room. Jett Jarvis, a player hated by his former teammates.
He has an arrogant smirk, intense eyes, and a birthmark that looks…too familiar. I’m sure I saw it on the dude who dumped me in my hookup app.
They say Jarvis isn’t gay, but I bet he’s the same jerk.
I’m getting to the bottom of this, even if it means pushing his buttons until he snaps.
But the more I mess with him, my anger loses out to my attraction.
JettThe last thing I need is the league's new gay icon strutting into my life.
Mason Hopkins is cocky, relentless, and too damn close to the truth. My secret. The one that could ruin everything.
But as he pushes, something inside me shifts.
The line between loathing him and wanting him blurs with every heated exchange, every accidental touch.
The thread between love and hate is razor-thin, and we’re skating on the edge.
Ice Rivals is the third book in the college hockey series, Desert Ice Hockey, and is the follow up to the Rock U series. It features a closeted player with a traumatic past and a self-assured rookie, a secret relationship, found family, hurt/comfort and some close proximity. Desert Ice Hockey follows a group of queer hockey players, known as the squad, while they each battle for their HEA.

However, it was a really good story, and if ever I find myself in trouble, I definitely want Mason on my side, even though he is full of himself (as he rightly admits). On the other side of the coin, Mason is a good guy, he stands up for himself, loves his friends and will do what he has to do, to protect those friends.
I loved how Jett knew that he loved Mason, but couldn't stop fear from getting in the way, his emotions running high throughout! It was cute how Mason and his 'squad took Jett under their wing and decided to look out for him. They were wonderful, helping him calm his nerves, helping him find the courage to be himself. Ultimately, he and Mason are lovely together, they're snuggly, caring, and cute. Already looking forward to Ace's story.
Finlay does an excellent job. He totally brought Mason and Jeff to life. He particularly caught all the nuances of Mason 😊 Highly recommended.
How Jeff initially put up with Mason 😉

All in all it was a good story. CW: strong discussion of homophobia in hockey as well as Jett’s stepmother being a homophobic jerk.
Good story.

The narration was great and all the characters was easily recognisable. Listening to Jett's backstory was just as hard and it highlighted why he worked so hard to stay into the closet.
The tension and action on the ice felt as I was a spectator and everything was put on hold whilst I finished listening to it. Looking forward to hear how Finnley Cole narrates Ace's story
Mason and Jett

Jett an Mason had explosive chemistry and the pacing was fantastic. I really liked the narrator, I thought that he voiced the characters beautifully. This audiobook kept me the best company. I had so much fun listening to it.
Fantastic book!

Continuing the stories of the Squad in her series Desert Ice. This book follows Mason and his infatuation with his new team mate Jett.
I've read the book previously, but listening to the narration brings a while new level to this.
Highly recommended
