    Summary

    After the Tuna Melt Incident, Shane and Ilya gradually started drifting apart. Texts became more scarce, hook-ups less frequent and feelings pushed aside until, in the moment of absolute panic, Shane ghosted Ilya fully.

    Now, three years later, Shane Hollander and Rose Landry are engaged. Shane's life finally seems to be going in the right direction. No distractions, great girl, lots of hockey.

    And then the new season starts and trades between teams happen.
    And Ilya Rozanov, whom Shane promised himself to forget, is suddenly on the same team.
    And, worst of all, he becomes the Alternate Captain.

    Summary

    Shane is left with a spinal cord injury after a catastrophic team event, and now he is left to rebuild a life that he hadn't really even started to begin with.

    Told through Shane’s therapy sessions and the memories he refuses to face, the story follows grief, survivor’s guilt, rehab, and the slow realization that finding a way forward into his new reality may also mean finding a way back to Ilya—even when neither of them knows what that path is supposed to look like anymore.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is Russia’s best hockey player and its most reckless disaster.
    Shane Hollander is Canada's golden boy and the most disciplined man alive.

    They meet in the Olympic village in Sochi, and neither of them walks away the same.

    But Shane gets to go home to Montreal.
    Ilya goes home to Moscow. To a father who owns his contract, a brother who owns his guilt, and a country where the wrong photograph ends a career.
    Getting out is going to cost him everything he has left.

    Slow burn. Sochi 2014 onward. They get there.

    Summary

    Presumed beta Ilya Rozanov unexpectedly goes into his first heat at age seventeen, forcing him into a life of hiding in order to be able to play the sport he’d built his life around; the sport that could be his ticket out of Russia and away from his family that hates him. When he meets the Canadian draft favorite, beta Shane Hollander, Ilya assumes that the only obstacles this Hollander guy will be able to throw at him will be dealt with on the ice. But the two rivals find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another, both on and off the ice, entering into a dangerous game of attraction and secrets that neither of them ever expected to play, and one that neither will ever be able to forfeit.

    Summary

    Rose volunteers for a nonprofit that rescues sex-trafficked omegas, and Shane thinks it's a great cause. He even attends their fundraising galas.

    Then, one night, Rose calls to ask for a favor: She wants Shane to let a recently-rescued male omega live with him. In his apartment.

    His name is Ilya, Rose explains, and the thing is, despite omega hormone levels, he acts and smells just like an alpha. He can't keep staying in an omega group home because he's scaring the other omegas and endangering the staff.

    But he could live with Shane, Rose insists. "You're a big strong alpha hockey player, so he can't intimidate you physically. But also he needs to feel safe, which he can with you, because you're not like other alphas." She pauses. "You know?"

    By which she means Shane has never had a full rut, his scent glands barely work, he can't form a knot, and he has no interest in sticking his dick in anyone. Which, whatever. It's fine.

    But if being a failure as an alpha means he can help this omega, Ilya, who's apparently as much of a biological anomaly as Shane is…

    Shane says yes.

    And maybe it's a stupid decision. But he knows that it's also the right one.
