    Summary

    “Y-you want me to be a girl?”

    Ilya rubbed the base of one of his thumbs with the other. Seeing Ilya’s shyness so plainly made Shane’s nose twitch.

    “No, not all the time,” Ilya said after a moment. “And not if you don’t want to. Never if you don’t want to. I just . . . I think about it, sometimes.”

    ***

    Ilya loves his life and his husband. But lately, he's found himself missing girls. Luckily, Shane is happy to indulge this fantasy.

    Summary

    Six months ago, Shane’s intimate conversation and break-up with Rose Landry was recorded and leaked. In those six months, his life had completely upended and everything had changed, for better or for worse. Except for Ilya. He still has Ilya, and he’s beginning to understand that he always will.

    It’s 2018. Shane Hollander has to figure out his new life, in a new city, on a new team, while being out to the world but not by his own choice. Ilya, along for the ride, also has to learn what it means to be connected to a place, to a person, and to his own inner truth.

    (Sequel to “something you can fix,” set post-Heated Rivalry, pre-The Long Game)

    Summary

    “What are you talking about? Of course I like men. Men are great,” she retorts. “They comfort me when I cry over a dumb movie. They’ll go out with me to a bar and have a good time. They can be kind and caring and gentle. What in the world makes you think I don’t like men?”

    Svetlana shakes her head. “I am not asking that. I am not asking if you think men are nice and fun. I am asking if you like men the way you like me.”

    -

    Rose knows something about Shane. Svetlana thinks she knows something about Ilya, namely that he’s dating one of the players at tonight’s game and she’s going to find out exactly who it is.

    What they don’t know about is each other. Until they do.
