Summary
Shane was twelve when hockey scouts started showing up to his games. He was barely fifteen when a check went horribly wrong, fucked his knee to hell and gave him a grade III concussion. During rehab he found swimming, and he was seventeen when he went to the Olympics as a relay-only swimmer who only swam the prelims.
He’s 24 and working for his mom’s sports PR company when he meets Ilya Fucking Rozanov.
May contain: Shane Hollander navigating what it means to be mostly normal when your whole childhood was about preparing you for greatness. Shane Hollander attempting to flirt. Possibly less than 100% accurate descriptions of what a sports PR agent does.

What if Shane was the first same sex exploration for Ilya? This and its WIP sequel are beautifully written and feels so honest to the characters. I love this series.

Summary
Statistically speaking, there was a very long list on one end which Shane sat solidly at the top of. On the other end, there was a list with only one name on it.
Shane was the best of everyone Ilya had ever fucked.
Sasha was the best to ever fuck Ilya.
Shane would never have gotten two Stanley Cups if he didn’t know how to pivot and change direction when needed.

Smutty smut smut, Shane tops the every loving hell out of Ilya through careful studying and note taking, of course.

Summary
Shane built his life on control—on routines so strict they left no room for anything real. What started as harmless discipline turned into something sharper, quieter, until even he couldn’t tell where the control ended and the damage began. By the time anyone noticed, Shane had already given up on himself.
Ilya never believed in control to begin with. His world unraveled slower, heavier—until one night, he stopped trying to hold it together at all. When he wakes up in a hospital bed, broken but alive, the only thing he feels is anger that it didn’t work. Ilya has given up on life entirely.
Against both their wishes, they’re sent to a remote rehab center and forced into the same room—two strangers with nothing in common but the ways they’re falling apart.
As the walls between them slowly crack, anger turns into understanding, and silence into something softer. Because maybe, just maybe… you don’t have to want to be saved to start finding a reason to stay.

A WIP where Shane and Ilya meet in a psych ward. Fantastically written and I am all in if/when this author blesses us peasants with any more.

Summary
The nights were already cold and Berlin's streets were poorly lit, but Shane didn't mind. Berlin wasn't a pretty city; apartment blocks repeated themselves in washed-out mustard tones, aseptic blues and greens, off-putting reds. The windows of the newer buildings were so small he wondered if those rooms even got any light.
Now that he thought about it, he could barely remember Hannover's architecture. He'd never paid attention. Hannover simply was.
How many things in his life simply 'were'? When was the last time something had demanded his full attention?
Or: Shane and Ilya meet in an erotic massage parlor in Berlin in 2012. They're both sex workers.
Or: an exploration of desire as a world-building force.
