Summary
It all started in Just Pretend, with Shane being more worried about the dust on the lights of a club, than the fact that he would soon be forced to sleep with a woman with his not-at-all-dick-loving penis—now that dust has settled and they are all done pretending.
Shane and Ilya are engaged, Rose and Marleau are about to make Kolbie a big sister, and Kolbie is a three-year-old nightmare who is along for the ride, as they all navigate a life of co-parenting, wedding planning, and just trying to survive parenthood one pack of snackies at a time. The Hollander-Rozanov-Landry-Marleau family will continue to grow in all kinds of unexpected, wonderful ways.
This one is all fluff and fun!.. I promise there will be no car accident plot twists or broken condoms this time. All babies created from here on out will be both planned, and expensive. I would like to say no one will die either... but those Book Club Biddies be getting old, team. Maybe we will vote one off the planet, Survivor style? ENJOY! TELL YOUR FRIENDS!

Summary
Shane is nineteen and straight in a dick-loving way (obviously), until Ilya finds a gift on his left nut... leading him to lose a ball, and in turn, gain an Ilya so much earlier in life. Be warned, this is tough subject matter delivered with the utmost respect... but also a hell of a lot of humor and laughs.
Come for a ride and see where life could have taken Shane and Ilya if they had figured their shit out at nineteen, and not twenty-six, with a supportive cast of characters and teammates. It will make you laugh, and cry... and get a little gooey.
PS: Check your balls if you've got 'em
David had refused to let Ilya take an Uber back to the hotel, so now Ilya was trapped in a small SUV, with his blowjob-buddy’s dad, after not only revealing to the poor guy that his son had an appreciation for Russian cock, but also that his balls were all kinds of fucked up. What a Tuesday.
“He’s going to undersell what’s happening to him.” David said finally, glancing at Ilya. “You’ve seen them, obviously, right?”
Yes, David Hollander. I’ve fondled your son’s balls and swallowed his cum like it was champagne. “Yes.” Ilya said instead.

Summary
Shane makes a drunken mistake in the name of protecting his carefully constructed closet, his life explodes in spectacular fashion. Suddenly faced with an unplanned pregnancy, a movie-star girlfriend, and a team of publicists convinced that "devoted family man" is a better headline than "gay hockey player," Shane commits himself to a future that looks perfect on paper. The only problem is that his heart still belongs to Ilya Rozanov—the man he left behind a few months earlier with a broken heart, several unresolved feelings, and a belly button full of cum.
Featuring an unforgettable supporting cast of ridiculous characters—including the endlessly supportive Rose, a delightfully meddling book club of old biddies who adopt Ilya as one of their own, and a sweet baby who changes all of their lives—this is a funny, emotional story about parenthood, forgiveness, grief, healing, and two grown men who could have avoided most of their problems by having one honest fucking conversation.
or- Shane knocks up Rose, almost dies, and he and Ilya find their way back to each other the way they always do...only now they have an adorable baby to love too.

Summary
Similar to Built to Break-Alternate ending, this story will be the same up to a certain point, and then switch into an alternate version. Chapter 25 is where things will begin to shift from the original.
If you have read the original, I have gone back and added some author's notes at the end of the chapters with some thoughts and insights you might enjoy, instead of rereading the whole thing... though I find that rereading it sometimes hits different when you know the ending will change.
Spoiler alert: Ilya will die.
Double spoiler alert: There will be a happy ending and a reunion, because I am not a psychopath.OR: Ilya gets cancer, dies... and we see the end of Shane's life until they are reunited again. Read for a good cry, and a happy ending.

Summary
"Ilya regretted not checking his carry-on—while totally unnecessary, it would have bought him an extra twenty minutes of staring at a spinning carousel before he had to face his impulsive offer to comfort the man he was used to pounding his dick into. Instead, he had about a fifteen minute walk to reconcile how after seven years of the same shit, he was about to become the man who could maybe offer more than just nine inches and an orgasm. He was sure to walk slowly, knowing damn well that the slower he walked, the quicker Shane’s mind would spiral. If he walked any slower, he’d miss the surgery altogether."
OR- Tuna meltdown never happens because Shane needs his wisdom chompers out, and Ilya ditches Vegas to come take care of him... Shane proceeds to get high and say really stupid shit.

Summary
Ilya died, yes, but then the doctors saved him. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the ambulance, three electric shocks, two emergency surgeries, twenty-six units of blood. Ilya died, but then he came back.
If only Shane could get his subconscious to understand that.

Summary
Ilya doesn’t even realize when Arthur slips from his thoughts. There’s no sharp turn, no clear moment where the article stops being about a little boy who loves reptiles and starts being about the man lying beside him in bed. It just… happens. The way his mind always seems to find Shane eventually, like water finding its lowest point.
