In this episode, Amy and Sarah skate through the cultural phenomenon that is Rachel Reid's Heated Rivalry. If you like a sports romance with minimal sporting details, occasional side characters, and explicit sex in EVERY chapter, then this queer rivals-to-lovers is the book for you. Grab a cuppa (or a glass of vodka) and get comfy, we have much to discuss.
