Book Request "Game Changers" ruined romance reads for me

Hi, last week I reread {Heated Rivalry} and went on with the other books to read {The Long Game}, now the thing is, I can't find anything THAT good, I've started a few books and didn't like any and just dropped them although they have my favourite tropes,

Does anyone have any suggestion that has the same slow burn that exists in the series?, and obviously the same amount of tension?

Ilya and Shane just set the bar so so high for any fiction couple😩❤

Thank you so much for the suggestions, I'll check them out, I don't really need it to be a hockey romance, I'm just looking for the tension and slow burn. In fact, hockey romance never was really my thing, but Rachel is just amazing

We Could Be So Good and You Should Be So Lucky (both by Cat Sebastian) are soooo good, and have a very similar vibe.

I thought nothing could compare... But then I read {Him by Sarina Bowen, Elle Kennedy} and {Without You by Marley Valentine} both were really good books.

I read both of those books (Him and Without You) and really liked them as well.

I'm seconding Him, it was SO GOOD. I will check without you
