Summary
Shane would always be yearning for something with a man who didn't want him, wouldn't he? A little positive attention and he'd folded like origami. Pathetic.
"Stay," Rozanov said. It sounded like pleading. That trick had worked on him, once.
“Why?" Shane's tone was more biting than he intended. "What do you think is going to happen if I stay? Are you gonna make me a goddamned tuna melt?”
Rozanov, to his credit, took the words like the blow they were. His eyes widened, then he covered his face with his palms and muttered something in Russian.
Shane had never seen shame written across those features before.
In April 2017, Shane Hollander suffers the most painful not-breakup he’ll ever experience. Months later, he's outed. Two years after that, a broken knee ends his career.
When Rozanov unexpectedly crosses Shane's path four years later, Shane resolves to be courteous yet keep his distance. But Ilya is just as beautiful and charming as he ever was, and he’s determined to give what they'd once shared a second chance. A real chance.
It's a bad idea. Shane knows it's a bad idea.
The terrifying thing is that it doesn't feel like one.

Summary
"Rozy," Brian, the team doctor says, "talk to me, buddy. That puck clipped you pretty good, how’s the pain?"
Ilya blinks. He clenches his jaw against a wave of nausea. He rests his cheek on the ice, and the cold helps a little.
"Bad. Very bad." He swallows. "Is Shane here?"

Summary
Excerpt...
...If Shane didn't get things under control right now, he was going to give his own secret away right here and now. But did he really care?
His phone shook in his trembling hands as he desperately tried to make the call, but he didn't have his glasses on and he was truly crying now so the screen was just a blur of light.
"I need to— I can't—" He gasped, and Hayden squeezed his hand before gently pulling the phone away from him. Then Shane heard the phone as it began to ring, and ring, and ring, and ring. Then there was silence, and then Ilya's snarky voicemail recording issued through the phone's speakers. Shane was going to be sick...Or...What if the emergency landing was a little bit more of a crash landing?
