    Summary

    Canada had given him his life as he knew it, but it had never felt one hundred percent comfortable, either. He missed Russia sometimes, but it didn’t have the thing that mattered most. Ilya had exactly one home, and it was this: his face pressed into a smooth chest, his head tucked under a strong jaw, with freckled arms wrapped around him and delicate fingers combing through his hair. Anywhere else was a temporary excursion.

    A treatise on second (and third) languages, homesickness, acceptance, Shane's struggle learning Russian, and the things people do when they care.

    Summary

    Ilya wanted so badly to just tell Svetlana: It’s Shane Hollander, it’s always been Shane Hollander. He wanted to invite her over after the game so he'd know it was possible for her and Shane to exist in the same room without the world collapsing.

    He was calling Shane back before he even thought about it, his heart in his throat. 

    “Ilya?”

    “Can I invite Svetlana?"

    He could never have expected what happened next.

    Or: Only a few months after the cottage, Shane meets Svetlana—and goes to great lengths to defeat his jealousy.

    Summary

    Nashville, 2011. The night before the All-Star skills competition, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov end up on the same sidewalk, in the same bar, and eventually on the same bridge over the Cumberland River — which is a problem, because the last time they were alone together was six months ago in a Toronto hotel room, and neither of them has figured out what to do about it.

    Summary

    Ilya can barely see him in the dark, but he doesn't need to. He holds Shane's face in both his hands and kisses him.

    "Hi," Ilya says, after a minute or three. "I'm sorry I missed you getting in."

    "I'm not," Shane says, quietly. "I like coming home to you." Then - and Ilya can hear the smile creeping up his face - he adds, "You were wearing my clothes."

    "Yes, well. I missed you." It's so easy to say that, now. Ilya turns onto his side again, pulling Shane's arm back over him.
