Recs if you like Scoring Chance...

We should all be reading queer, all year, but this list is full of upcoming queer books of all makes and models coming out in 2026. If you have a rec to add, just please keep in mind we’re looking for 2026 releases!

Queer romance set in, on, around, or a stone's-throw-away-from a hockey rink. Pro-level, Ivy league or Rec-level, we don't discriminate here.

The title speaks for itself 🤝

queer hockey romance books

Professionals or not,people who enjoy either the gym or being in the field. All kind of sports, from hockey to motocross.

If like most people, you’ve read Heated Rivalry and are craving more, here is a big list of mlm hockey romances!

Seeing any books or series you’d like added? Suggestions are more than welcome!

Please note i have not read most of these, so i cannot tell you the tropes or content warnings. I do believe nearly all of these have smut.

MLM books with no switching in the sex scenes. I am counting in books where they both give and receive oral and where they mention switching. It is just as long as there is no switching scene on the page. The only things that are the same with all of these is that they are all MM and all have at least one sex scene.
