Summary
His outstretched glove hangs there, frozen, as the noise of the arena mutates into a ringing buzz. Then he’s moving, pushed away by Marlow, and then Boston’s goalie. There’s a flurry of movement, a trainer with a towel, more blood dripping onto the ice, and he just. Stands there. Staring.
Ilya is helped off the ice. Shane doesn’t even tap his stick.
Remember when Sidney Crosby caught a puck with his jaw? That doesn't happen to Shane. That happens to Ilya.

Summary
It starts, as many things do, slowly. He quietly stops seeing Galina. He lies about taking his medication. The medication hasn’t been helping anyway. Then it’s Shane noticing he isn’t doing well, and begging Ilya to talk to him. There is nothing to say.
Objectively, everything is fine. His life is amazing. He’s married to the love of his life, they play for the same hockey team, they don’t have to hide their love anymore. They have a dog and a place that is home. He has a family with Shane and his parents. He has friends with the centaurs and Svetlana. On paper, his life is amazing.
The thought definitively doesn’t help the guilt he feels when he holds the handful of painkillers.
Or: Ilya commits suicide. But when he dies, he finds himself as a ghost and is forced to watch Shane grapple with his death.

Summary
“If I gave Jackie a day of getting to have sex with me whenever she wants as a thank you for tidying the living room, I think she’d divorce me,” Hayden says.
“Nah, man, she’d kill you,” J. J. says, which is probably true.
Shane shrugs. “That sounds like a straight people problem.”
Hayden is truly glad that the times of Shane torturing himself by being in the closet are over. But. Well. This conversation is kind of making him miss those days.
---
Finally, after everything, Shane is a happily married man. Incredibly happily married. It only becomes a problem once he thinks it qualifies him to dispense relationship advice.
Or, five times Shane gives relationship advice his friends disagree with, and one time he doesn’t.

Summary
Ilya Rozanov built his tech empire from nothing, but the CEO who always wins is suddenly losing the one fight that matters—custody of his six-year-old niece, Alexandra. A strict judge, hostile old-money grandparents, and a brutal legal brief all paint him as too busy to be the parent she needs.
Shane Hollander, the NHL’s first openly omega captain, has spent his entire career proving he belongs. At thirty-two, with contract negotiations looming and a franchise in quiet turmoil, he’s one bad headline away from having his legacy written for him.
They come from two different worlds—until a chance meeting on a Cape Cod beach leads to a marriage of convenience. Shane offers the stable two-parent home the court wants. Ilya will use his connections to the incoming Voyageurs ownership group, and his considerable influence to make sure Shane walks into contract negotiations as something other than a question mark.
Everyone gets what they need. Shane gets to keep his contract. Ilya gets to keep his niece. And absolutely no one will fall in love.
Really.
