    Summary

    Henry's take on his relationship with Alex, starting from their first meeting, continuing to the cake fiasco at the wedding, and concluding with Henry being told he has to pretend to be friends with his secret crush by (who else?) Queen Mary. Though other writers have also had a go at this one, I had to try it also, since (in my opinion) Henry is the most complicated and attractive character in the entire book! There are probably as many interpretations of what's going on in his head as there are readers of the novel, which is why we all find him just as fascinating as does Alex. So here goes!

    Summary

    In 2022, Ilya wakes up in a hospital in Ottawa with no memory of how he got there. He has hazy recollections of 2015, but he can't remember anything about the past seven years. He is shocked to learn he is now married to Shane Hollander, a fact that forces him to reconcile the decisions of his past self with the expectations he inherited from his father.
    --

    “I have this for you.” Hollander reached into his pocket, pulling out something gold, glinting under the cold hospital lighting. Holding his fist out, Hollander unfurled his hand, and the bottom fell out of Ilya’s heart, cratering through his stomach and spilling onto the floor.

    Shane Hollander stood before him, palm outstretched, cradling Irina Rozanova’s golden crucifix.

    Ilya flinched back, like he had been burned. Hollander’s warmth had moved too close, too fast, morphing into a threat and a violation. Hollander should not have that cross.

    Summary

    A human's life force is centered in the amount of magic in their body. If the magic runs out, they die. That's one of the reasons Shane Hollander made sure that he excelled in a field where you're not allowed to use magic during competition - Hockey. But as he and Ilya Rozanov's 18th birthdays approach and their magic is due to settle into the one Power they will have for the rest of their lives, they find that maybe, just maybe, they're exactly right for one another.
