    Summary

    “We can't be something, Hollander.” The look on Ilya's face is heartbreaking. If Shane had to guess, he feels the exact same way as him. They both know there's more and they want it, but there are too many barriers in place preventing them from this.

    Well, maybe that will change once Shane takes the test that's been burning a hole in his pocket since he bought it at the convenience store a block away. He was going to take it after the game and talking with Ilya regardless, but Ilya being there depended on how this conversation continued.

    “What if we had to be?” Ilya turns his head and perks an eyebrow at that, and Shane takes a deep breath. “Have you ever heard of the MC-15 gene?”

    “Shane…” Ilya's eyes have grown wide, and Shane lets out a nervous chuckle.

    “It runs in my family, so I got tested when I turned thirteen and I have it. It was one of those things where I knew about it in the back of my mind, but I never thought about it because I had no reason to.”

    Summary

    2014: Ilya Rozanov shocks the world and breaks Shane Hollander’s heart by disappearing without explanation, and without a goodbye kiss.

    2024: A devastating injury forces Shane to retire early, so he moves to a small town to coach girls hockey and figure out what the hell to do with the rest of his life.

    When recently divorced Ilya Rozanov walks into the rink with his twin girls, Shane has to decide if he’s brave enough to risk a second chance on a broken heart, and a rekindled romance with the first and only boy he ever loved.

    ***

    “So.” Ilya cleared his throat. “Should we tell the girls their Daddy and their coach used to date?”

    “We didn’t date. We hooked up a few times, then you disappeared.” Shane looked away to hide his heartbreak as he lied, “It doesn’t even matter. It’s not like I loved you or anything.”

    “No, of course not.” Ilya tried to smile through a lie of his own, “I didn’t love you either.”
