Heated Rivalry is the internet's new television obsession, thanks in large part to its breakout leads, Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams.

Unbeknownst to the public, the pair are secretly hooking up, in this gay enemies-to-lovers hockey romance based on author Rachel Reid's #BookTok-beloved series.
25-year-old Storrie plays Ilya, a Russian phenom who's known for the powerful skills that back up his constant trash-talking. Viewers who watch the romance series may be surprised to discover that the man behind the character is an American with a very different background. Read on to learn more about Connor Storrie, from how he perfected that Russian accent to the secret behind his chemistry with Williams.
