Summary
I have asked that man roughly four hundred questions and I have never once received a real answer. I'm not sure he's aware I exist. Honestly, at this point it's a personal project.
- I. Rozanov, on a podcast, not joking
_______
Ilya Rozanov has been flirting with Shane Hollander in press scrums for six years and is completely certain it has never once landed.
Shane has heard all of it.
From a man who was supposed to be drafted alongside him but instead took a high stick at seventeen, lost his depth perception, never played a professional game - and turned up five years later with a media credential and two of the best hockey books anyone's written.Now his mother has hired that man to write his life story.
Six months. Full access.

Summary
Ilya has never been a good sleeper, especially not in unfamiliar spaces. So when he can’t sleep one night before an away game, weeks after the fatal tuna-melt and the love of his life now dating some Hollywood actress, Ilya strolls the hotel corridors and finds a piano. The calm of playing draws him into an empty hotel ballroom and he finally lets himself fall apart - singing a stupid Justin Bieber song nonetheless. He thinks he’s alone. He isn’t. By morning, everyone and their mother has seen a video of Ilya at his most vulnerable.
By the next afternoon, Shane is shown a video in the Metros locker room, surrounded by laughing teammates throwing slurs. Shane has an epiphany. And a panic attack in the parking lot. He did this. He got scared that fatal day in Boston and ran away from the only person who ever truly saw him. And there is nothing he won’t do to never see Ilya that alone again. He’s gonna get him back.
A dual POV story about a viral piano video, Shane Hollander on a mission to get his man back, and two men who spent years being Hollander and Rozanov figuring out if they can be Shane and Ilya instead.

Summary
Shane's new career in the NHL was going surprisingly well, with just one little problem. He had started to hear voices. Actually, it was just one voice in particular. Every so often, he swears he can hear a man speak clearly to him in a heavy Russian accent. Everywhere he turns, though, the source of the voice cannot be found. It feels like there was something missing in his life, and he didn't know how to find it.
Across the world in Russia, Ilya Rozanov has spent the last 3 years of his life dreaming of freckles and brown eyes. He couldn't put a name to the face. Couldn't even see any more details besides the eyes and the freckles. Discovering who those freckles belong to is the one thing that is keeping Ilya alive at the moment.
In this timeline, multiple things happen that prevent Shane and Ilya meeting in the way they were supposed to. Good thing Shane and Ilya fall in love in every universe.

Summary
The last thing Shane and Ilya expected when they died after living a long, happy life together was to wake up back in their 17 years old bodies the day they first met.
They get to redo everything together and to fix what they got wrong the first time.

Summary
“Ilya is my best friend. There is no rivalry. At all. The media can spin whatever they want, but that’s not who we are. He will always be my biggest fan, and I will always be his. There’s no animosity between us and there never will be. End of story.”
——
The media wanted a bitter rivalry. Instead, Shane and Ilya gave the league the finger and became inseparable, obnoxiously affectionate best friends. And maybe, unbeknownst to them, stupidly in love too.
As the microscope and pressure of the league increasingly suffocate Shane, he must also now navigate love and a relationship underneath it. But when targeted violence shatters their world in a single night, Shane is forced to confront the traumatic grief of the golden boy he used to be, his sanctuary turning into a cage, and the painful freedom of change — leading to a journey of healing, self-discovery, and a choice that shocks the world.
(No one dies or is permanently injured, I promise. Guaranteed HEA.)
