   Summary

   Shane Hollander was this precious thing that had come out of nowhere, on a Wednesday night, in a city they both were not in any way linked to. He was this exquisite, expensive, breakable doll that also had a powerful masculine aura, a strength that was impressive and soft at the same time.
   He needed a little nudge in life. He was constantly being the captain, being perfect, giving the good answers to journalists, the good passes to his teammates, watching over their wellbeing in and out of the ice. But it was impossible to know who Shane Hollander really was. Nothing slipped through. It was a seemingly unbreakable shell of PR management and self-control.
   Ilya wanted to break this badly.

   5 times Ilya, juggling jobs and running away from life, bumped into hockey golden boy Shane Hollander, +1 time he got to stay.
