   Summary

   In 2014, Shane Hollander walked away from hockey, from the spotlight, and from every dream he built since he was 8 years old.

   In 2014, Ilya Rozanov felt himself drifting. He lost at the Winter Olympics, Boston lost his chances at playoffs this season, he was losing his father, his brother, his family; and he was losing his damn mind to a boy with freckles.
   So he pushed everything away, so no one would get hurt when he eventually cracked.

   Years later, they reunite, Shane — with so many scars, a thousand secrets, and a heart that never learned how to let go.

   Ilya Rozanov thought he knew what losing felt like.
   He was wrong.

   Or: Sometimes, love doesn’t leave.
   Sometimes, someone keeps it for you.
