    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov, Captain of the Ottawa Centaurs, Stanley Cup winner, league MVP, has run out of printer ink. It would have been nice if he had realized this more than three hours before he was supposed to print out the boring form needed for his boring Canadian citizenship application, but this will not be a problem for Ilya Rozanov. He has found the perfect, boring, Canadian solution: a public library.

    Or: Shane Hollander, occasional glasses-wearer, fell in love with the Dewey Decimal System, and took an oath to serve every patron that walks through the Ottawa Library's doors in their pursuit of knowledge, even if that patron is kind of a dick.

    Summary

    Ilya wasn’t trying to kill himself that night. Suicide is something that belongs to his mother- he’s just lazy, and he wishes Shane would stop making excuses for him.

    Shane has everything under control. His body is a tool, the one that’s given him both his career and his relationship, and he wishes Ilya would stop prying into the way he maintains it.

    or: Ilya learns a whole lot more about his mother, Shane remembers a whole lot more about his childhood, and they both get diagnosed.

    Summary

    All of Shane Hollander's focus is on keeping his head down and graduating from his sports medicine program. He's perfectly content to focus on his studies, happily neglecting parties or meeting girls. But when he's forced to go a club by his friend Hayden Pike, he meets an alluring stranger named Ilya. After their initial encounter, they begin hooking up in secret as Shane grapples with his sexuality.

    There's something strange about Ilya, though. He won't tell Shane where he works or what he does, threatening people seem to follow him around, and most of all, he's constantly plying Shane with expensive gifts. But it's probably nothing. After all, there's no organized crime in Montreal—right?

    OR: Bratva Ilya Rozanov AU!

    Summary

    Under the leadership of Ilya, the Rozanov Syndicate exploded onto the international drug and finance scene right around the time FBI-hopeful Shane Hollander was caught up on the periphery of a Russian mob hit. It's an opportunity for the FBI to get a man in deep cover. It's an opportunity for Shane to do something great, write history (like he was supposed to do in hockey). It's all perfect.

    But sometimes the stars don't align for the reasons you suspect, and loyalty looks a lot different when you're down in the trenches with the man you love.

    Summary

    Shane thought love meant safety. Ilya thought love meant control.

    When secrets surface and choices are stolen, Shane is forced to confront the truth about the man he loves and the empire that comes with him. In a world where protection looks like possession and devotion comes at a cost, walking away may be just as dangerous as staying.

    Some loves don’t let go. Some don’t survive the truth.

    A dark, emotionally charged story about love, power, agency, and the dangerous question: can you have both roots and wings?
