These books have the potential to live rent-free in your head the rest of your life. You're welcome!

If I missed any LET ME KNOW!

I went through all the books in the romance quest tab and here are all the ones where at least one of leads is in a relationship that is not "man and woman falling in love with each other." F/F, M/M, F/NBi, M/NBi, NBi/NBi, etc. Largely motivated by wanting to figure out which romance book quests I had a chance of getting the badges for. If I missed any, let me know. Quest specific info in the pinned comment.

M/M hurt/comfort books - ones I’ve read plus ones recommended to me in the r/MM_RomanceBooks subreddit. Most of these have pretty intense hurt because that’s my jam

Whether it's about the romance or the sport or both, these books at the very least contain characters who practice and/or care about sports, are part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and possibly do the kissy

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.

most of these ive read a few i haven’t but they’re all gay ! most of it is hockey :)

My fave MM romances (most are hockey related lol)!

This list gathers ice hockey romance novels that explore queer sexualities (achillean, sapphic, poly), disability, masculinity and women’s participation in sport. The corpus supports my research question for an essay I'm writing: How do contemporary ice hockey romance novels challenge hegemonic masculinity and reimagine belonging within a traditionally heteromasculine sport?

You love hockey romance, but are tired of seeing the same books recommend over and over? You want to diversify your reading and read more disabled, fat, BIPOC and queer stories? I have some recs for you! (A lot of these are from talk_about_swoon on Instagram)

Hockey Romance

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.

Literally just hockey romance! Enjoy!

Basically, books with hockey and boys kissing boys.

As I sift through the smorgasbord of hockey romances out there- these are the ones that have stood out to me.

Note: PB won’t let me put them in any kind of order, so they’re not listed by greatness.

My favorite MM ice hockey books (of which I have read way too many); I may later include some I also enjoyed but are not my favorites but I'm including to be recommended anyway for everyone's different tastes

disclaimer: I haven’t read and so can’t necessarily vouch for all of these!

For people like me completely obsessed with gay romance novels with hockey player/s. Only books I ended up liking or actually recommend, there are those I read but didn't really like so they're not here.
