“Me and Hudson had the chemistry down before we even started acting,” says Connor Storrie, his arm draped around his costar. That might be a bit of an understatement. Storrie and scene partner Hudson Williams shot to fame practically overnight thanks to Heated Rivalry, the gay hockey romance series created by Jacob Tierney and based on Rachel Reid’s steamy series of novels.

If you can imagine, their bond only intensified once the cameras started rolling. “We got comfortable just being inches from each other’s face and invading each other’s personal space,” says Williams. “A nightmare for HR.”

After finding an article that listed all of the songs used in Heated Rivalry I made a playlist. Because Apple Music can be a bitch I couldn’t find everything. The only song on my playlist that’s not used in the show is Conan Gray’s “Family Line”. I saw an edit that used it and I had to add it to the playlist.

Also, this article goes into it quite well (for those that don't do the threads)
