Summary
As a straight man, Ilya Rozanov has never had a gay roommate before, but it’s going pretty well. Shane Hollander is kind, silly, and an even bigger hockey nut than Ilya.
So when Shane starts bringing men over, and Ilya begins to want to bash their fucking heads in, Ilya comes to a startling conclusion: He must be homophobic.
(He’s jealous.)

Summary
Shrugging one shoulder far more casually than he possibly feels, Ilya says, “I like both. Is secret, okay?”
“Okay,” Hollander says, voice cracking.
He doesn’t say anything else. The air’s so heavy around them that it feels like being in the middle of a scrum, the weight and heat of all those bodies pressing down on you. Danger always feels like hockey; it’s the most dangerous thing Ilya knows, except for this. Everything dangerous in his life involves men’s bodies and just how close he can get to them. Closer than he probably should.
A year after mysteriously dropping out of the 2009 draft, Shane Hollander is signed by the Boston Raiders, right behind Ilya Rozanov. Having the two biggest stars in the league on the same line is great for Boston — but playing alongside their worst rival was never exactly in Shane or Ilya's plans. Especially not when staying away from each other starts to feel just as impossible as getting along.

200k words of plot and character driven narrative perfection. Absolutely addictive and such sympathetic characterisations.
Ilya moves to Boston and lives in apartment above Shane so they see each other heaps and know each other better. Get busted kissing in an alley by Hayden and Shane’s anxiety wins. They have a huge fight and Ilya’s father dies the same day Shane works himself out at a gay bar. Fortunately.

Summary
“What is there to talk about?”
“What’s there to talk about?!” Hollander scoffed, shaking his head. “You’re playing for my fucking team!”
“I know.”
“Why did you have to go and get traded?! You realise we’re going to have to see each other every day from now on, and play together, and-”
“Yes,” Ilya interrupted. He didn’t want to know how long Hollander’s list was. “I know.”
Hollander took a deep breath. “Okay, listen,” he said. “Just so we’re clear - we don’t know each other outside of playing against each other, right?”
“Right.”
“And we can’t- can’t hook up anymore.”
~
OR: Ilya gets traded to Montreal in October 2014. He's lonely, and angry, and he misses Boston. He doesn't know if it helps that Hollander is there or not.

Bookmarker's Notes
Two lost boys finding their ways to each other. Redemption arcs for everyone including the Voyageurs (kinda). Ilya and Shane are their canon selves although Ilya’s obsession with Shane makes him forgive some pretty terrible behaviour. I loved it being in Ilyas POV because I’ve never felt so frustrated with Shane before even though I know comphet is the problem not him.

Summary
After Vegas, Shane begins to give up on Ilya and looks for a new way to feel wanted.
Ilya, of course, finds out about this and locks in.
A small dose of jealousy and a bigger dose of communication add up to change the trajectory of their affair from 2014 onward.

OMG. Cuts all the angst out and gives you tears of happiness instead. No tuna melt, Shane tells Ilya what he needs believing Ilya can’t be it; Ilya refuses to give Shane up and slowly warms up and delivers. Of course they find each other literally irresistible which helps. So beautiful. Ilyas conversation with Yuna which wins her over is just 💋

Summary
Ilya Rozanov is loud, reckless, and deeply in love.
He’s also learning- slowly, reluctantly- what it feels like to be wanted, claimed, and loved on purpose.

Man I cried like a baby reading this. What the title says - Ilya is incorporated into the Hollanders and LOVED
