Summary
"Ilya had loved him through his worst moments. Ilya had helped him find a therapist when he’d collapsed on the floor of their hotel bathroom after losing a particularly brutal game, scratching at his chest. Ilya had held him, even when Shane yelled at him because there was panic crawling under his skin and he felt as though it might claw its way out. Ilya had told him it was okay; that it didn’t make him a bad player to resent the spotlight sometimes, that it didn’t make him a bad teammate to hate the team when they were too loud and too drunk and too physical, that it didn’t make him a bad person to need space to breathe. Ilya saved him.
And look what you give him in return. You’re a shitty husband, Shane Hollander.
You don’t deserve his last name."

Summary
Shane Hollander was the legendary figure skater everyone knew; his photo inspired young skaters who dreamed of growing up to be just like him.
But the ice was treacherous. A single misplaced jump took everything from him—even his ability to hear the world around him, to feel the sounds and follow them with every glide across the arena. The change was stark: the televised fall, the blood staining his costume that day, the ringing in his ears, the headaches. Everything had become strange.
Ilya Rozanov was the opposite of the delicacy Shane possessed on the ice. He was rough, aggressive, skating as if his life depended on it—because it was the only thing that kept him alive. The ice had given him everything, just as it had taken everything from Hollander.
It was never part of his plan for that skater’s gaze to completely alter his own view of life.
And Shane Hollander never expected the ice to give his life back to him—in the form of a person. -

Summary
Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”
“Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.
“No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”
“Go fuck yourself.”
+++
Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.
And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?
