Only a few months after Heated Rivalry took the world by storm—and sent sales surging for the Rachel Reid-penned book series the show is based on—another one of our hockey romance obsessions has followed in its footsteps, jumping from page to screen. Season 1 of the long-awaited TV series adaptation of Elle Kennedy’s beloved and best-selling Off Campus books debuted on Prime Video on May 13, with plans for each season to follow a different book in the series.
Each novel in the romance series centers on a love story between a hockey player and a fellow student at fictional Briar University, filled with enough spicy scenes and tried-and-true romance tropes to keep your heart fluttering and feet kicking throughout. For example, the first book, The Deal, which serves as the inspiration for the first season of Off Campus, follows team captain Garrett and music student Hannah on a fake-dating plot that—surprise, surprise—is jeopardized when a certain campus bad boy catches real feelings for his not-so-real girlfriend. Hannah and Garrett stick around the rest of the series, as each book follows the romantic escapades of Garrett’s close friends and teammates.
