    Summary

    Shane is admitted against his will after his world becomes too loud to survive.

    Ilya has already learned that survival and living are not the same thing.

    Forced to share a room in an adolescent psychiatric ward, two boys with very different kinds of damage learn that understanding can arrive in unexpected places - and that healing is rarely gentle.

    Or : Shane gets assigned the angry Russian boy with a history of fighting with roommates, Ilya gets stuck with the anxious Canadian who stares too much, and somehow an involuntary psychiatric admission becomes the place where they find friendship, understanding, and eventually love.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is old money, flawless, and untouched. Ilya Rozanov is new money, reckless, and loud. For years, their bitter rivalry was a perfect public performance.

    Then they were kidnapped, stripped of their names, and locked in a freezing concrete box with a single narrow bed.

    For weeks, the script burns. The hatred warps. And by the time the cage door finally opens, the real nightmare begins. Because outside, they have two separate lives, but inside, they’ve already become each other’s only fix.

    Summary

    The fire went out a long time ago. All that remains is ash.

    After years of trafficking, Ilya Rozanov has been conditioned to expect pain from every outstretched hand. So when he's placed with Shane Hollander, a seemingly gentle man in a quiet cottage, he knows better than to believe that it's rescue. It is a new chance to be good enough, if he can just figure out what this one wants from him.

    Summary

    Odd-Man Rush: The situation that occurs when a team enters the attacking zone and outnumbers the opposing players in the zone.

    Or,

    Shane doesn’t know why he still feels so off-kilter. He should be the happiest he’s ever been—he won the Cup, he feels like he’s maybe starting to have a few friends on his team, and he’s finally starting to believe his parents when they tell him he won’t get traded again. He should be on top of the world, but sometimes he still feels like the lone defender on an odd-man rush, skating as fast as he can to prevent what feels like an inevitable outcome.

    The problem is that he’s not quite sure which outcome it is that he’s trying to stop.

    Summary

    “You’re going to Boston.”

    Long after Farah hangs up, the words keep echoing in Shane’s head. If he had thought his thoughts had been chaotic this morning, when his biggest problem had been his rival potentially fucking him when he came to Montreal in two weeks, that’s nothing compared to the code-red panic that started the instant he found out he was being traded to Rozanov’s team.

    Rozanov, who was supposed to be his great career rival. Rozanov, who he’s hooked up with twice now. Rozanov, who had been planning on coming to Shane’s apartment in Montreal to fuck him the next time they saw each other. God, how on Earth is Shane going to walk into his locker room in Boston in a few days time?

    The impending awkwardness of dealing with Rozanov is almost enough to eclipse the hurt he’s trying to ignore. The knowledge that Montreal values him so little that they’re willing to dispose of him only six months into his rookie season. Almost, but not quite.

    -

    Or, Shane gets traded to Boston AU.
