    Summary

    Shane Hollander plays piano. Ilya Rozanov fixes things.

    Together they build a life above a shop, filling a cramped apartment with sheet music, repaired furniture, unfinished shelves, and enough love to make the future feel inevitable.
    Then war arrives, Ilya is reassigned first- Temporary, they tell him.
    Shane knows better, yet neither of them manages to say a proper goodbye.

    The years that follow are shaped by ration books and radio broadcasts, newspaper headlines and rumors that travel farther than the truth, and the slow terrible distance that grows when two people are left alone with their worst assumptions for long enough.

    Somewhere between home and war, two men who once knew each other better than anyone begin building their entire lives around things that were never true.

     

    Or: two deeply intelligent men spend the better part of a decade being catastrophically in love and aggressively angstily misunderstanding the situation.

    Summary

    When Shane reluctantly agreed to kick off his MLH career with a photoshoot, he imagined, somewhat vaguely, a hockey uniform and some dramatic lighting on the rink. Shoot a few pucks. Pose intensely. That kind of thing.

    The marketing agency, apparently, had other ideas.

    A plane flight gone wrong, a desperate crash landing, and suddenly hockey’s two brightest young stars find themselves stranded in the heart of the Canadian wilderness. With no way home and no rescue coming, they only have one hope for survival -- each other.
