About Loon Lovers Live
From the publisher's feed
Anne and Jordan…
interview fans, cast, and crew of Rachel Reid's Game Changers series and Heated Rivalry television show!
Loon Lovers Live was created in October 2025 in the lead up to the Crave smash hit, Heated Rivalry. We started out interviewing fans of the Game Changers series by Rachel Reid. We wanted to know what they loved about the books, why they meant so much, what they thought of the Heated Rivalry TV trailer, and what they wanted to see in season one.
Now as the show has aired and we are all enjoying reheated rivalries, we've continued by interviewing even more fans and the cast and crew of the show. Join us!
