E! Illustration/Getty Images, Literie, CozynMeTime, twistedEGOS, & HomewellGiftsIf you're not obsessing over every single detail in Heated Rivalry, including its talented and gorgeous cast, then what are you doing? This Canadian TV series (available to stream on HBO Max) entered our pop culture zeitgeist late last year, and it's still not showing any signs of leaving.
A rarity these days, considering the internet's revolving door of topics. Pop culture moments last weeks at most—but not this gay hockey show. Months later, everyone is rewatching the show a million times, sharing TikTok edits, reading the books, and closely following appearances from the actors.
Starring Hudson Williams as Shane Hollander and Connor Storrie as Ilya Rozanov, the series centers on a pair of star-crossed lovers in the form of two opposing hockey players. In other words: The trope? Hockey rivals-to-lovers. The genre? Explicit romance.
If you're anything like me (a nerd with a decade and a half of fandom experience), rewatching the object of our affection isn't enough. We need more. We need merch to carry these characters (and their adorable love story) with us everywhere we go. We need to wear it, we need to smell it, we need it all.
If you find that relatable (and not insane), you've come to the right place. Keep scrolling to shop our favorite Heated Rivalry-inspired merch—from the OG book sequel to candles that bring you right to the cottage.
