    Summary

    All Ilya Rozanov has ever wanted to do is dance with Shane Hollander in a nightclub.

    So, naturally, he plots and orchestrates a twelve-hour truce between Boston and Montreal to make it happen. It's the perfect cover... assuming they can actually blend in and not get caught.

    But between their instinctual domesticity and a very drunk, clingy Shane, staying under the radar is a lot harder than it looks. Especially when Cliff Marleau is sitting right across the table.

    (or, Cliff puts the pieces together when Shane gets wasted, Ilya's boyfriend mode is too obvious, and he catches them sexy dancing in the club.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “My boy pulled the hottest guy in the NHL!” Cliff exclaimed. “Fucking ten!”

    He let Shane down and slapped Ilya on the back in a congratulatory aggressiveness.

    Ilya looked at Cliff, stunned, a massive smile enveloping his face. He was right. He landed Shane Hollander.

    “Elite work, Rozy. You look great whipped.”

    Oh, this is embarrassing.”

    Ilya frowned.

    “What now?”

    “You bought a Rolex?”

    “It is watch.”

    “It’s a Shane Hollander watch.”

    Across the neighbouring table Shane nearly inhaled sparkling water wrong.

    Summary

    Rose tried very hard. She dated actors, musicians, entrepreneurs, one extremely enthusiastic yoga instructor, and most recently a professional hockey player. That last attempt had seemed promising at first. Athletic, handsome, quiet in a mysterious way.
    It turned out he was quiet because he was internally panicking.
    Shane Hollander was, in Rose’s expert opinion, “a lovely human being and a complete disaster in denial.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Shane froze. Completely. Utterly. His brain visibly stopped working.

    “I… what… who…” he stammered.

    Rose smiled sweetly. “Tall. Russian. Smirks a lot. Looks like he could break hearts professionally.”

    Shane’s face turned red. Then redder. Then a deep, tragic shade of humiliation.

    “I…” He covered his face. “Oh my god.”

    “Ilya Rozanov,” Rose continued. “Ring any bells?”

    Shane made a noise that was somewhere between a groan and a whimper.

    “I’m going to disappear now.” he muttered.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “I googled it, you spent too much money,” Shane said.

    “Cheapest car I have ever bought,” Ilya dismissed.

    It wasn’t. He had splurged for every single extra, wanting Shane to be as safe and comfortable as possible. And Svetlana had been the one to sell to him, so she got a hefty commission bonus from him.

    “You spent –”

    “I don’t want you sliding around the roads in the fucking snow, Hollander,” Ilya said, regretting the snippiness in his voice.

    Shane took a deep breath. Ilya prepared himself for a fight, for another smart ass comment –

    “Thank you, Ilya,” Shane said instead, his voice soft.

    Ilya blinked, sitting up in bed for the first time since he woke up. “You’re not going to fight with me?”

    “Not about this,” Shane said. “You wanted me to be safe.”

    Ilya sighed and threw himself back down against his sheets. “Don’t make this a big deal.”

    “Because you love me,” Shane said softly.

    “Yes, Shane,” Ilya agreed. “Because I love you.”

    What if David and Yuna had both gone to the cottage to retrieve that phone charger? What if they crept in very quietly (because silent meditation retreat) and found their son fast asleep on the couch, snuggled up with his arch-rival, Ilya Rozanov?
