  1. Summary

    “They’re a rotten crowd,” I shouted across the lawn. “You’re worth the whole damn bunch put together.” I’ve always been glad I said that. It was the only compliment I ever gave him, because I disapproved of him from beginning to end.

    Summary

    “I am Russian, not Canadian.”

    Shane raises up onto his elbow and looks, hard, at this man he loves. “You could be. Canadian, that is. If you wanted to.”

    Ilya’s gaze back is searching. Shane doesn’t know what he’s looking for, but then Ilya says, “Loyalty is important in hockey.”

    Stuck between a mother country that doesn’t want him and an adopted country in which he feels foreign, international hockey remains complicated for Ilya. An open, festering wound.
