    Summary

    Heat spread across Ilya's face. His mouth fell open slightly. He let out a short, stuttered laugh of disbelief. This couldn't- he was straight, he wasn't-

    “Finally got you at your own game.” Shane's smirk widened to a smile, his hand clapping down on Ilya's shoulder to squeeze it slightly. For once in his life, Ilya was unable to find his voice.

    “Damn.” Shane laughed, jostling him a bit. “If I had known this was all it took to get you to shut the fuck up, I would have started flirting back years ago.”

    ----

    When old college friends Ilya and Shane show up to their mutual best friend's wedding, they are ready to fulfill their duties as bridesmen. Even after years of not seeing each other, they fall right back into their usual banter.

    Ilya loves to flirt with Shane. Shane loves to tell him to fuck off. It's a running bit. Nothing more than a joke between two friends; because Shane is gay and Ilya is straight and it doesn't actually mean anything…until Shane finally decides to flirt back, and Ilya's world suddenly tilts on its axis.

    OR

    What if the soft spot to land was in each other's arms, and the world was more accepting than either of them had imagined?

    Summary

    Starting over was never easy, but Ilya Rozanov wanted to try.

    One year in hell. Then—Canada: a foreign country and a fresh start.

    He had to find himself again. His pride was shattered, his confidence gone. Almost nothing remained of the person he used to be. Still, he had to keep living, even if it was the hardest thing he'd ever done.

    Shane Hollander had never felt so far from Yuna.

    Once, she had been the closest person in his life—then she wasn’t.

    He had spent years being angry at her. There was nothing left between them. Things with his girlfriend weren’t going much better, either. Maybe he just needed something new—a distraction.

    Shane knew he’d be meeting his biggest rival in Saskatchewan. People said he was weird. Brilliant, too.

    Rozanov, right?

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is on top of the world. Fast cars, a hot boyfriend, a successful hockey career. Sure, he hasn’t fallen in love with his boyfriend yet, but like everything else falling in love just requires hard work. He’ll get there eventually.

    When Shane Hollander crashes back into his life, Ilya starts to question if the top of the world might actually be more of a home shaped place with a fluffy orange cat and an annoying hockey player. But Ilya can’t just ditch his plans to go to Paris with his boyfriend and run off with Shane Hollander instead. Right?
