        HBO Max/Crave Canada
    
        François Arnaud starred in the first two episodes of Heated Rivalry as Scott Hunter — who, despite being the protagonist of book 1, Game Changer, in the series of novels written by Rachel Reid, is mostly a supporting character in the Crave original TV show streaming on HBO Max. Under showrunner Jacob Tierney, the main focus of Heated Rivalry is on the love story between Shane Hollander (Hudson Williams) and Ilya Rozanov (Connor Storrie)... except for the third episode, titled "Hunter," that takes a detour to explore Scott's love story with Kip Grady (Robbie G.K.).

        After two explosive and steamy episodes centering Connor Storrie (Ilya Rozanov) and Hudson Williams (Shane Hollander), Heated Rivalry episode 3 takes a sharp turn to focus on another couple from Rachel Reid's Game Changers series of novels. Specifically, this week's chapter serves as a one-episode arc to the main couple of Reid's first book in the saga, Game Changer: Scott Hunter (played by François Arnaud) and Kip Grady (played by Robbie G.K.).
