Summary
Loving Shane Hollander had taught Ilya Romanov how to slow down.
They had a plan now. A life that made sense. Something quiet, stable, and boring. For once, Ilya believed peace might be something he could actually have, not just something he pretended not to want.
Then Troy Barrett arrives from Toronto and starts looking at what Ilya has built like it’s something he might take. Like peace is something might need too.
Ilya tells himself it’s nothing. A misunderstanding. He plays captain. He plays fair. He plays nice.
But loathing has always come easier than love, and once everything starts to unravel, Ilya learns there are only so many times you can choose peace before you are forced to show how far you’ll go to keep Shane Hollander to yourself.

Summary
Ilya contemplated his choice of words. “So, maybe three months after honeymoon. Jackie was pregnant.”
“Dude,” Hayden scoffed. “Why do you need to know?” He finally turned around to give Ilya a proper scowl.
“Is another thing we will beat you at,” Ilya said with a wink. “Maybe in nine months, you will meet baby Hollander.”
Hayden groaned, scrunching up his face in disgust as he exited the car. Shane was displaying Ilya’s favorite combination of emotions: embarrassment, annoyance, and arousal.
“What the fuck is your problem?” Shane laughed, no venom in his voice.
“This is what people do on their honeymoon, yes?” Ilya winked. “Make baby.”

Summary
“It’s not something we’ve discussed too much,” Shane admits reluctantly. “I mean, I think we talked about it once or twice, after being around Hayden’s kids. But…I was afraid…I don’t know if you want…” His sentence falters and he presses a hand to his stomach, inhaling slowly like he’s trying to soothe more nausea.
It takes Ilya’s brain a few moments to process, to catch up, to piece together this half-filled puzzle Shane’s laying out for him.
“We talked about having babies,” Ilya supplies, arching an eyebrow, “are you trying to say we are…having a baby?”
Shane sucks in another slow, controlled breath. “Um, yeah. That’s what I’m trying to say.”
“You are pregnant?”
Wincing, the shorter man nods. “Mhm.”

Summary
Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.
“Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.
And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.
Just once. Just a single nod.
Why did he have to nod?
“Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”
“Of course.”
Of course.
“Was it better?”
“Yes.”

Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.

Summary
After winning the Stanley Cup, hockey captain Shane Hollander comes out as gay, earning support but realizing he’s never explored his sexuality. Yet, awkward attempts at club flirting and misunderstanding in gay culture lead him to reach out to Ilya Rozanov, a dominant ex-NHL star turned porn actor and professional dom, whose confidence and honesty have always fascinated him.
Ilya, intrigued by Shane’s sincerity and raw need for guidance, agrees to a professional arrangement as Shane's dom, but sets clear boundaries: honesty, self-truth, and the freedom to stop anytime.
Their explicit, emotionally charged sessions help Shane discover his submissive desires and authentic self as a gay man, while Ilya lets down his guard and risks genuine connection with another person for the first time since his last abusive relationship.
As Shane’s game improves and rumors swirl, both men struggle with vulnerability, public scrutiny, and evolving feelings.
