  1. Ilya's been taking care of himself for so long, and not always doing a very good job of it. It would be understandable, Ilya thinks, if Shane didn’t really know how to do it yet. Not when they’re only a month into being married and three months into being honest and less than a year since that hotel room in Tampa, where Shane had climbed into his lap and let Ilya cry into his shoulder and held him like no one had held Ilya since he was very small.

  2. When Ilya's father finds out that Ilya has been sleeping with Sasha, his coach's son, Grigori kicks Ilya out of the house and tells him never to return. Injured and alone with nowhere to go, Ilya reaches out to his childhood friend Svetlana and her father, Sergei. As a retired MLH star and permanent resident of the US, Sergei Vetrov is able to help Ilya seek asylum while he waits for the draft. However, the story behind Ilya's abrupt departure from Russia is leaked just weeks before the MLH draft is scheduled to be held, and the repercussions will change the direction of Ilya's future in the MLH forever...

  3. No serious hockey fan or sports commentator worth their salt would have considered record-breaking Boston superstar Ilya Rozanov to be Shane Hollander’s rival exactly, but sleeping with a man who had a specific offense-related vendetta against him and a wrist shot like a jet engine to back it up was probably ill-advised just the same.

    Or, Shane is a goalie. Ilya can’t score.

  4. “Why are you doing all this?” His heart hammered in his chest. He wanted to drink the coffee but wasn’t sure he could keep his hands from trembling.
    “Only two things keep Shane Hollander from a spiral: being too hard or being too soft. Team took option one from me, I do option two.”

    My take on the winner's room and magical pussy curse tropes, with added pussy-obsessed Ilya Rozanov.

  5. After the events of It Takes a Village, Shane must navigate how to move forward in his career when the team he has grown to love ultimately sets a ceiling on his growth. In another life, he would have won his Stanley Cups with the Metros, been their star center and Captain, and the face of a franchise. Here, he is second line to New York's beloved captain and one of his best friends, Scott Hunter. He knows that to grow, he has to move on, but leaving the family he found in New York might be the hardest challenge he's faced yet.

    This is a sequel to It Takes a Village and will not make sense without having read that work first. If you haven't read it yet, please do! For those who have read and enjoyed ITAV, I hope this sequel does it justice <3

  6. In a quiet cafe at the Ollympic Village in Sochi, Shane Hollander asks his friend from high school a question that changes everything.

    "How did you know you were gay?"

    Alternatively, Shane gets help figuring out his sexuality a little earlier, and from someone who's not exactly Rose Landry, movie star...

  7. Ilya can hear the squeak of wheels on linoleum floor, feel his body being moved along a hallway. Maybe the light dims in front of his eyelids when he’s pushed into an elevator. Maybe he’s just falling asleep.
    How is he supposed to tell?
    “Wait; is he okay?”
    Ilya knows that voice, hears the panic in it.
    “Please; how is he? Where are you taking him?”
    Shane’s here? Why would Shane be here in the hospital?
    If he’s in the hospital, how badly is he injured?

    Ilya gets injured during the playoffs, upending all of his and Shane's plans.

  8. When Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov arrive in Ottawa, everyone expects the hard part to be hockey.

    What they don’t expect is how difficult — and how hopeful — it will be to finally build a life together.

    As the Centaurs rebuild, Shane and Ilya navigate new teammates, new expectations, and the unfamiliar challenge of letting their relationship exist outside of stolen moments and long-distance phone calls.

    Because it turns out, being on a losing hockey team might be the easy part.

    Learning how to have a future together is something else entirely.

  9. Shane was gay. That was the entire point of this whole thing. He was a man who loved another man. And he was a man. 

    He was a professional athlete, nearly six feet tall, just about 200 pounds. But for every single thing about him that he felt like served to qualify him as a man, it was like Ilya had somehow turned the dial up to eleven. 

    And Shane loved it. 

    or, five times that Shane is overwhelmed by his husband's masculinity and one time that Ilya realizes he is not the man of the house.

  11. Something Ilya did not study in English were the forbidden words. Slurs, in English. Why would he? He knew the big ones that he should ‘be careful to not even rhyme with when there’s a camera on him,’ said the Bears’ PR manager, so he didn’t, and that was that. Except, now they were saying something about Hollander in the locker room.
