Heated Rivalry Book Review: Part 10 - Eight Burgers, One Loon & One Huge Revelation (Chapter 24)
Declan and Silvan are at The Cottage in Part 10 of our Heated Rivalry book review.We unpack one of the funniest chapters in the novel, from eight burgers and "stupid Canadian wolfbird" to the effortless comedy Rachel Reid gives Ilya throughout these scenes. Beneath the laughter lies one of the book's most important emotional turning points.We explore Shane's hesitation about coming out, what it means for Ilya to feel like a secret and how Rachel Reid captures the complicated balance between love, fear and vulnerability. We also compare these moments with Jacob Tierney's television adaptation, discussing why certain scenes feel even more powerful on screen and how subtle changes in body language transform the emotional impact.The conversation also dives into Ilya's lifelong role as a caretaker, the heartbreaking story of his mother, and why we found ourselves wanting even more of his perspective during these pivotal moments. Along the way, we debate whether Heated Rivalry is ultimately Shane's story or whether Ilya deserves more narrative space.Plus, we share our thoughts after our first Belfast listener meetup and thank everyone who came along to make it such a memorable day.The next episode of the Long Game podcast will be released on Sunday 2nd August 2026.Join our Long Game Podcast Book Club on Fable to read along with us each week.: https://fable.co/club/long-game-pod-book-club-with-long-game-pod-349252537194?invite=fc285de0-86ea-45c4-ab3f-8dcc82b8cad8&referralID=4tVUzsxlCCFind us on instagram: longgame.heatedrivalry.podWrite to us: longgamepod2481@gmail.comFind Declan: Instagram: declan712Tiktok: declanmccallion1Find Silvan:Instagram: SilvatesTiktok: silvates1Listen to the Podcast on:Apple podcast: Spotify podcast: Amazon podcast: Watch it on youtube: Listen to Silvan’s ‘Silvates’ podcast here:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xMX59teVzpf6M86Cv7WG9?si=016f5477aed14697Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Cottage Chapter02:31 Humor and Levity in the Story05:10 Adaptation Insights: Book vs. TV Show08:11 Creative Trust in Adaptations09:25 Superhero Fatigue and Audience Expectations09:44 The Need for Quality LGBTQ+ Stories10:34 Character Dynamics: Shane and Ilya10:46 Exploring Shane's Internal Struggles13:44 The Impact of Micro-Rejections16:29 Ilya's Caretaking Role and Its Consequences24:33 The Caretaker Role of Ilya27:13 Contrasting Upbringings: Ilya vs. Shane30:15 Character Development: The Evolution of Shane35:00 Emotional Intimacy vs. Physical Connection39:18 Navigating Grief and Vulnerability43:55 The Balance of Humor and Seriousness47:58 The Writer's Responsibility: Depth in Storytelling57:29 Community Connection: Reflections on the Meetup

Heated Rivalry Book Review: Part 9 - Rimmedgate
Declan and Silvan break down the start of Shane and Ilya’s cottage escape in Part 9 of our Heated Rivary Book review. This week we are joined by Bri, who is a long-time listener of the podcast.Together, we explore why this chapter feels like such a turning point in their relationship, from the emotional significance of Shane inviting Ilya into his most personal space to the honesty, vulnerability and quiet intimacy that begin to replace years of secrecy. We also discuss Scott Hunter's impact on Shane and Ilya's future, the differences between Rachel Reid's novel and the TV adaptation, and why the later chapters of Heated Rivalry showcase some of Reid's strongest writing.As always, the conversation takes plenty of unexpected detours, including nostalgic pop culture references, discussions about Rachel Reid's brilliant blend of romance, humour and spice and one surprisingly passionate debate that inspired the title of the podcasrt episode. This has us questioning whether one particular scene in the book is actually believable.Vote for the podcast at the British Podcasting Awards - Listener’s choice here: https://www.britishpodcastawards.com/voting?fbclid=IwcGRvZgNmZGlkFlCkmoMrnAekl9q_Oiq5pW6ccq4aTDBleHRuA2FlbQEwAGFkaWQBqzYyDxIeMXNydGMGYXBwX2lkCjY2Mjg1NjgzNzkAAR6krBNj0vQ0HQJgGsYBmJQII6iHsj-9a3oWRYbYE6c90gTbrJOT84ROk3cl7g_aem_Iv3xITo7m3Dit1c_OhL32w&utm_medium=paid&utm_source=fb&utm_id=120249403576740433&utm_content=120249403588300433&utm_term=120249403577610433&utm_campaign=120249403576740433The next episode of the Long Game podcast will be released on Sunday 26th July 2026.Join our Long Game Podcast Book Club on Fable to read along with us each week.: https://fable.co/club/long-game-pod-book-club-with-long-game-pod-349252537194?invite=fc285de0-86ea-45c4-ab3f-8dcc82b8cad8&referralID=4tVUzsxlCCFind us on instagram: longgame.heatedrivalry.podWrite to us: longgamepod2481@gmail.comFind Declan: Instagram: declan712Tiktok: declanmccallion1Find Silvan:Instagram: SilvatesTiktok: silvates1Listen to the Podcast on:Apple podcast: Spotify podcast: Amazon podcast: Watch it on youtube: Listen to Silvan’s ‘Silvates’ podcast here:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xMX59teVzpf6M86Cv7WG9?si=016f5477aed14697Chapters00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction01:31 Discussion of Chapter 23 Overview03:33 Character Development and Dialogue Analysis07:45 Exploring Relationship Dynamics11:11 Significance of Ilya's Commitment14:50 Self-Defense Mechanisms in Relationships18:17 Shane's Character and Hockey Obsession21:00 Contextualizing Scott and Kip's Relationship23:22 Ilya's Bravery and Public Persona26:33 Exploring Racy Scenes in the Chapter27:27 Evolving Relationships: Intimacy and Humor31:58 Exploring Sexual Dynamics in MM Romance41:10 Symbolism of the Cottage: A Reflection of Self45:50 Emotional Intimacy: The Journey of Connection

Heated Rivalry Book Review: Part 8 - I’m coming to the Cottage
Declan and Silvan dive into Part 8 of the Heated Rivalry book review.We explore how Rachel Reid uses crisis as the catalyst for emotional growth in Shane’s injury. We compare the novel with the TV adaptation, unpack why Shane and Ilya react so differently in each version, and discuss the psychology behind fear, avoidance, and the moment Ilya realises he cannot walk away.As always, we go off on a few tangents, like why third-act breakups frustrate us, whether redemption after cheating can ever work in romance, and how therapists naturally gravitate towards different characters. We also reflect on why finding the right therapist matters, how sensory memories shape our emotions, and why Shane's relationship with hockey changes as his life evolves.We finally reach one of the most iconic moments in the series, Scott and Kip's iconic kiss. We talk about why this scene carries so much emotional weight, what it means for Shane and Ilya's future, and why a single act of courage can create hope for everyone who follows.Vote for the podcast at the British Podcasting Awards - Listener’s choice here: https://www.britishpodcastawards.com/voting?fbclid=IwcGRvZgNmZGlkFlCkmoMrnAekl9q_Oiq5pW6ccq4aTDBleHRuA2FlbQEwAGFkaWQBqzYyDxIeMXNydGMGYXBwX2lkCjY2Mjg1NjgzNzkAAR6krBNj0vQ0HQJgGsYBmJQII6iHsj-9a3oWRYbYE6c90gTbrJOT84ROk3cl7g_aem_Iv3xITo7m3Dit1c_OhL32w&utm_medium=paid&utm_source=fb&utm_id=120249403576740433&utm_content=120249403588300433&utm_term=120249403577610433&utm_campaign=120249403576740433The next episode of the Long Game podcast will be released on Sunday 19th July 2026.Join our Long Game Podcast Book Club on Fable to read along with us each week.: https://fable.co/club/long-game-pod-book-club-with-long-game-pod-349252537194?invite=fc285de0-86ea-45c4-ab3f-8dcc82b8cad8&referralID=4tVUzsxlCCFind us on instagram: longgame.heatedrivalry.podWrite to us: longgamepod2481@gmail.comFind Declan: Instagram: declan712Tiktok: declanmccallion1Find Silvan:Instagram: SilvatesTiktok: silvates1Listen to the Podcast on:Apple podcast: Spotify podcast: Amazon podcast: Watch it on youtube: https://youtu.be/gN7qrF8-by8Listen to Silvan’s ‘Silvates’ podcast here:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xMX59teVzpf6M86Cv7WG9?si=016f5477aed14697Chapters00:00 Introduction to Heated Rivalry Podcast01:44 Character Development and Emotional Conflicts06:47 Plot Devices in MM Romance10:43 The Impact of Cheating in Romance15:51 Shane's Injury: Book vs. TV Show18:41 Therapeutic Perspectives on Characters25:50 Concluding Thoughts on Relationships and Conflict26:16 The Complexity of Relationships30:44 Catalysts for Change34:38 Growth Through Time38:25 The Power of Touch46:12 Doubts and Fears54:26 Hope and Sacrifice

Heated Rivalry Book Review: Part 7 - Shane’s glasses and the skype call
Declan and Silvan go deeper into our Heated Rivalry deep dive in Part 7. We unpack one of the novel's most intimate and emotionally revealing chapters. What begins with a simple Skype call quickly becomes something far more significant, as Shane and Ilya move beyond physical attraction into a longing for domesticity, comfort, and a shared everyday life.We explore why Shane's glasses become such an unexpectedly powerful symbol, the psychology behind long-distance relationships, love languages, and the growing emotional vulnerability between two men who are trying desperately not to fall in love. We also compare Rachel Reid's novel with the TV adaptation, discussing Ilya's relationship with his father, complicated grief, and why the show adds new emotional layers to his character.We debate whether Shane's past experiences with other men strengthen or weaken the story, examine the subtle dom/sub dynamic developing between the pair, and ask what it really means to crave someone's presence more than their body.The conversation drifts into pop culture, internet boyfriends, glasses becoming unexpectedly attractive, and why being someone's weighted blanket might just be the ultimate love language.This is the quiet calm before everything changes.Request our meet up details on 19th July in Belfast here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfgNJIFlK10E3J7vjhrvgP6t6UFhcBfS0lqNVHyaTRFWL57XA/viewform?usp=publish-editorThe next episode of the Long Game podcast will be released on Sunday 12th July 2026.Listen to the Grief episode from Silvan’s Podcast he references: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495?i=1000611164149Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/57DNPWy7iSvLKeeWcmJrsdJoin our Long Game Podcast Book Club on Fable to read along with us each week.: https://fable.co/club/long-game-pod-book-club-with-long-game-pod-349252537194?invite=fc285de0-86ea-45c4-ab3f-8dcc82b8cad8&referralID=4tVUzsxlCCFind us on instagram: longgame.heatedrivalry.podWrite to us: longgamepod2481@gmail.comFind Declan: Instagram: declan712Tiktok: declanmccallion1Find Silvan:Instagram: SilvatesTiktok: silvates1Listen to the Podcast on:Apple podcast: Spotify podcast: Amazon podcast: Watch it on youtube: Listen to Silvan’s ‘Silvates’ podcast here:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xMX59teVzpf6M86Cv7WG9?si=016f5477aed14697Chapters00:00 Introduction and Event Announcement01:01 Chapter 20: The Significance of Glasses10:54 Ilya's Family Obligations and Grief18:34 Intimacy and Vulnerability in Relationships28:06 Exploring Control and Trust in Relationships29:40 Navigating Long-Distance Relationships32:55 The Complexity of Emotional Connections35:10 Understanding Love Languages43:24 Character Backstories and Their Impact49:01 The Realities of Romance vs. Fiction54:13 The Sweetness of Longing and Love#podcast #podcastclips #heatedrivalryedit #silvates #connorstorrie #hudsonwilliams #shortsfeed #shortreels #silvates #mmromance #mlm #heatedrivalry #gamechangernovel #heatedrivalrybook #bookclub

Heated Rivalry Book Review: Part 6 - Coming out
Declan and Silvan unpack Part 6 of the Heated Rivalry novel. Here, Shane finally says the words he's spent years avoiding, and everything between him and Ilya begins to change. We examine one of the novel's biggest emotional turning points as Shane comes out to Ilya, leading to a conversation that's surprisingly understated and deeply significant. We explore why Rachel Reid's character writing feels so authentic, how the TV adaptation chooses what to keep (and what to reinvent), and why this moment marks a new stage in Shane and Ilya's relationship.We also dive into Ilya's devastating family story, discussing the quiet reveal of his mother's death, his father's Alzheimer's, and how grief, trauma and emotional masking shape the person he becomes. Along the way we compare the novel with the TV series, debate Jacob Tierney's adaptation choices, and explain why Connor Storrie's unforgettable Russian monologue may be one of the show's finest moments.Request our meet up details on 19th July in Belfast here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfgNJIFlK10E3J7vjhrvgP6t6UFhcBfS0lqNVHyaTRFWL57XA/viewform?usp=publish-editorThe next episode of the Long Game podcast will be released on Sunday 5th July 2026.Join our Long Game Podcast Book Club on Fable to read along with us each week.: https://fable.co/club/long-game-pod-book-club-with-long-game-pod-349252537194?invite=fc285de0-86ea-45c4-ab3f-8dcc82b8cad8&referralID=4tVUzsxlCCFind us on instagram: longgame.heatedrivalry.podWrite to us: longgamepod2481@gmail.comFind Declan: Instagram: declan712Tiktok: declanmccallion1Find Silvan:Instagram: SilvatesTiktok: silvates1Watch it on youtube: https://youtu.be/JadlJGRj9JQListen to Silvan’s ‘Silvates’ podcast here:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xMX59teVzpf6M86Cv7WG9?si=016f5477aed14697Chapters00:00 Introduction to Chapter 1701:40 Shane's Coming Out Moment09:24 Character Dynamics and Adaptation14:25 Exploring Emotional Responses24:18 The Impact of Grief and Loss39:18 Navigating Grief and Emotional Defense Mechanisms41:19 Shifting Tones: From Heavy to Light42:10 Exploring Intimacy and Vulnerability44:28 Understanding Complex Relationships47:11 Proactive Communication in Relationships49:35 The Complexity of Family Dynamics51:15 The Absence of Monologues: A Narrative Choice54:17 The Emotional Weight of Unexpressed Feelings58:51 Cultural Identity and Language Barriers01:02:42 The Struggle for Love and Acceptance01:04:33 Intimacy Through Shared Spaces01:08:37 The Obsession with Winning vs. Love01:11:43 The Fear of Losing Someone01:14:24 Taking Action in Relationships01:14:43 Missed Opportunities in Narrative

Heated Rivalry Book Review: Part 4 - Rose
Declan and Silvan dive into Part 4 of our Heated Rivalry book review series. This is one of the most important introductions in the entire story, Rose.We compare Rachel Reid's novel with the TV adaptation, and explore why Rose feels different on the page versus on screen. I’m e discuss how Sophie Nélisse's performance elevated the character and why Shane and Rose's relationship serves such an important purpose in Shane's journey toward self-acceptance.Along the way, we unpack the idea of "meeting the right woman," reflect on our own experiences of questioning identity, and discuss how both the book and show portray the pressure to follow a traditional path before embracing who you really are.We also spend time breaking down the club scene, from wardrobe choices and celebrity culture to the emotional tension between Shane and Ilya. Does Shane and Rose's whirlwind romance feel longer than it actually is? We dfiscuss if Rachel Reid missed an opportunity to explore Shane's perspective more deeply during one of the story's most pivotal moments.This episode is packed with character analysis, adaptation comparisons, personal reflections, and plenty of tangents about dancing, fashion, skinny jeans, and why Rose remains one of the most beloved characters in the Heated Rivalry universe.The next episode of the podcast will be published on Sunday 14th June.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Rose and Character Comparisons02:41 The Role of Rose in Shane's Journey05:50 Language and Feminist Commentary in Character Dialogue08:09 Shane's Internal Struggle with Identity11:17 The Dynamics of Shane and Rose's Relationship13:18 The Impact of Time on Relationships in the Story16:04 Celebrity Culture and Public Perception19:00 The Club Scene: Book vs. TV Show22:08 Fashion and Social Expectations in Club Culture29:00 Body Image and Insecurities31:56 Fashion and Identity35:51 Atmosphere in Storytelling39:21 Dancing Dynamics44:28 Sexual Tension and Character Development49:08 Missed Opportunities in NarrativeJoin our Long Game Podcast Book Club on Fable to read along with us each week.: https://fable.co/club/long-game-pod-book-club-with-long-game-pod-349252537194?invite=fc285de0-86ea-45c4-ab3f-8dcc82b8cad8&referralID=4tVUzsxlCCFind us on instagram: longgame.heatedrivalry.podWrite to us: longgamepod2481@gmail.comFind Declan: Instagram: declan712Tiktok: declanmccallion1Find Silvan:Instagram: SilvatesTiktok: silvates1Listen to the Podcast on:Apple podcast: Spotify podcast: Amazon podcast: Watch it on youtube: https://youtu.be/hnlLC04hXjUListen to Silvan’s ‘Silvates’ podcast here:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xMX59teVzpf6M86Cv7WG9?si=016f5477aed14697
