Who's on the bench

Hockey Romance Novels is a directory of 4,092 hockey romances: college and pro, M/F, M/M, F/F and why choose, from sweet to scorching.

We build the roster from reader-curated lists and series reading orders, then tag every book by trope, heat level, pairing and setting so you can find exactly the kind of puck-adjacent pining you’re in the mood for. Rankings blend how many readers have rated a book with how often it shows up on readers’ favourite hockey romance lists.

Heat levels and tropes are our best judgement from each book’s description and reputation. If you think we’ve called a penalty wrong, let us know.

Book cover images are served from Open Library’s Covers API and from Google Books; covers remain the property of their publishers. Books with neither get one of our typographic cards instead.
