"Season one of the Crave show, adapted by Jacob Tierney from the second book in the series, is very faithful to the source material, also called Heated Rivalry. (It also featured a departure episode based on the events of the first book in the series, Game Changer,the story of Scott Hunter and Kip Grady, a.k.a. Skip.) The Long Game,which is the sequel to Heated Rivalry and continues the love story of Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, a.k.a. Hollanov,"
"In the Heated Rivalry epilogue, which doesn't appear in the show, we learn that, as planned, Ilya now plays for Ottawa's team, which in the book is the Centaurs, though book team names differ from the ones used on the show so far. Ilya and Shane start a hockey camp for kids which helps raise money for mental-health awareness. Shane is out to his team, but, except for Hayden, his teammate and best friend,"
Season one of the Crave show adapts the second book, Heated Rivalry, and remains faithful while including an episode based on the first book, Game Changer. The Long Game, the sixth book, continues Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov's relationship. Season two will mirror The Long Game, set a couple years after their coming together. Unrivaled debuts in September as the seventh book. Books three through five focus on other queer hockey players, with Shane and Ilya appearing in supporting roles. The epilogue reveals Ilya playing in Ottawa, the pair running a hockey camp for mental-health fundraising, Shane out to close friends and family, and Ilya mostly closeted.
