    Summary

    lya Rozanov spent years convincing himself he hated Shane Hollander.
    Maybe he did.
    It was hard not to hate someone who seemed to have been born loved. Parents who would do anything for him. A smile that came easy. A life untouched by the kind of loneliness Ilya carried around like a second skin.
    So after the All-Star Game, tipsy from celebrating and too deep in his own thoughts to realize he’d gotten off on the wrong hotel floor, the last person he expected to find sprawled unconscious in the hallway was Shane Hollander.
    He should have left him there.
    Instead, instinct took over.
    Caregivers were built to soothe suffering, even when it belonged to someone they wished they could hate cleanly.
    But one impulsive decision in a Tampa hotel room changes everything.
