    Summary

    Boston, Massachusetts. Founded 1630, by very boring people called Puritans. Revolutionary War happened, there was Tea Party, then a lot of boring history for next couple hundred years. Finally, great hockey legend Ilya Rozanov moved to Boston in 2010 and made the sleepiest city in America very fun and cool again. Here is what to do for fun if you are new to Boston or have visitor to show around.

    Ilya's definitive guide to where to eat, stay, and party in the city of champions, when you're a super fun pro athlete who definitely doesn't spend every day yearning for Shane Hollander.

    Summary

    The best way to describe this work, I think, is as a novelization of the television series told from Ilya Rozanov's point of view. What happens in the series will happen, more or less, in this work.

    Please note, I did read both Heated Rivalry and The Long Game by Rachel Reid, but that was some time ago and my recollection of them is spotty at best. Because they are novels and this is a written story, I did NOT consult the books in order to reduce the chance that I would inadvertently plagiarize them. That means that where the television series leaves a gap in the narrative, I may fill it with something very different than what happens in the books. We will all end up at the cottage, but some of us are taking a slightly different path to get there.

    This novelization means that potentially triggering things that happen in the series (like mental health issues) will happen in this work. NOTE, HOWEVER, no new issues will be added in this work. No one dies. No one is outed. No one is assaulted. This is just the story of the show as if it were from Ilya's point of view.
