Summary
Troy’s grin turned sharp and mischievous. “Alright then,” he spoke up. “New bet.”
“No.” Ilya groaned. “Why is everything always a bet?”
“Because you hate losing,” Wyatt answered as if it was obvious.
Troy clapped his hands together. “Okay, so,” he started, his eyes gleaming. “Rozanov has to get Shane Hollander to fall in love with him.”
Ilya stared at him, his brain’s processing lagging half a second behind. “You think you are jokester, yes? You are joking.”

Summary
“I want our family,” Ilya said. “I want children. Permanence, I think is the word... A life with you. More than anything.”
Shane felt his throat tighten. “I want that too.”
Ilya nodded, eyes swelling. “I know. That is why I need to say everything now. Before I lose the nerve.”
He took Shane’s hands, grounding himself. “I am trying to be strong for you. But I need you to be strong for me too.”
“I am,” Shane said immediately, almost offended.
“I know,” Ilya said. “But I need you to listen.”
Shane nodded. “I am listening.”
“I do not want to play hockey much longer,” Ilya said quietly. “Maybe couple more seasons. And then I am done.”
Shane stared at him. “Done?”
“Yes.”
“With hockey. You’re serious?”
“Very,” Ilya said.

Summary
Part of him hated it, the way her bright smile lit her face and sent his heart thundering. He’d counted on this. He’d counted on having to stand in bars, outside rooms where he’d rather not think about what was happening inside. He’d counted on having to fudge some of his reports and stand outside changing rooms and fight through crowds of photographers clamouring to catch sight of her. But he hadn’t counted on her.
The black silk was tight on her body and he tried not to flush at the skin he could see through the lace cutouts of her dress. “Did you have a good night?”
“I… had as good a night as any.”
“You’re a homebody aren’t you?”
“Not at all.”
“You’re very grumpy tonight.”
“Just once, Princess, I wish you would go to a party where there was a back door.”
“A back door? I suppose you’ll just have to settle for the front door. Poor Anthony.”
He took the lead this time, throwing open the doors as the crowd outside clamoured, calling her name, cameras flashing.
“Kate!”
“Kate!”
“Princess! This way!”OR
The last thing Anthony counted on when he took this job, desperate to get out of the military was her. Kate Sharma. The Future Queen
