    Summary

    The first thing Ilya Rozanov felt was a headache the size of Massachusetts.

    Seriously, his head was pounding so badly behind his eyes that the moment he tried to sit up in bed, a violent wave of nausea nearly made him throw up. He immediately dropped his head into his hands, elbows braced against his knees while he forced himself to breathe slowly through it.

    Jesus Christ.

    What the hell did he drink last night?

    Summary

    "Hi, solnyshko.”
    The Russian pet name set a firework off inside Shane's mind as he heard it cooed from behind him. The intonation was just as he remembered, but the voice was much deeper.

    He turned and felt himself short circuit. It took every ounce of willpower to not let his jaw drop cartoonishly to the floor. Shane would recognize his individual features anywhere, even after 5 years. But it was as if someone had snapped their fingers and the smug, silly Russian boy who had been attached to Shane's hip for 3 summers was transformed into some sort of fucking Adonis right before his eyes.

    “Ilya-” was all Shane managed before strong arms were wrapped around his waist and lifting him off the ground in a greeting all too familiar from years ago.

     

    OR
    When Shane Hollander & Ilya Rozanov spent their summers as teens in an elite hockey camp, they quickly became inseparable friends. But they lose touch when Shane moves on as a prospect for the NHL and Ilya for the KHL.

    Years later, Montreal makes a bold move to take the hottest player in the KHL. After hearing of the Russian's reputation, the Montreal Captain is tasked with keeping his old best friend and new teammate out of trouble.

    Summary

    In the summer of 2016, longtime NHL rivals Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov agree (against their better judgment) to star in a highly produced summer dating show. The premise is simple: each of them will live together for eight weeks and choose dates, challenges, and romantic prospects for each other, all in the name of finding love off the ice.

    It’s meant to be easy money. Stupid television. Eight weeks of carefully manufactured heterosexual romance with women they barely know.

    Instead, Shane realizes something about himself he’s spent years avoiding—and Ilya gets exactly what he’s always wanted: proximity, without the ice between them.

    What begins as rivalry turns into something far more dangerous when the cameras turn off.

    Or: the AU where Shane and Ilya never hook up before their rookie seasons, agree to a joint reality dating show to “find love” with women, and end up finding it with each other after years of pretending that isn’t what they’ve always wanted.

    Summary

    "Well you obviously needed it. Not bad for a first timer. You’re welcome.

    There were so many things Ilya could say to make sure that Hollander understood that this was nothing but casual fuck that would not be repeated because... Well, because.

    It would be so easy to lie."

     

    1989 is a year that will change the lives of two young hockey players in a way they can't even imagine

    Ice hockey is Ilya's greatest love and his ticket to freedom. But to make his dreams come true, he has to be brave enough to leave behind everything he knows and start a new life in a foreign land.

    Shane is the golden boy of the league, and after two fantastic seasons everything seems to be going his way. But then the Montreal Metros acquire a new player in a most unusual way, and after that nothing is the same.

    Summary

    Shane can’t understand it. Ilya can’t understand it. No one knows who started it. But it’s happening.

    After Ilya and Shane are outed, someone on the internet decides that Shane bagging “the dangerously sexy Russian bear” means that he’s a sex goddess (yes, a fucking godDESS) and a babygirl and a daddy and a walking, talking thirst trap and all sorts of other things Shane doesn’t even want to know about. It's embarrassing and it’s annoying and it’s really, really weird.

    Luckily Shane and Ilya have Harris, Centaurs’ nice and savvy social media manager. Harris tries to keep the highspeed train on the rails, but the internet doesn’t get his memo. And when the free and welcoming atmosphere of his new team slowly lures the real Shane Hollander out of his shell, Harris’s plan falls flat on its face. And there’s a real danger that Harris himself might follow.
