    Summary

    Newly married and finally settled, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov are blindsided when a woman publicly claims that Ilya is the biological father of her six-year-old daughter—news they first hear breaking on Sportsnet, with Shane’s parents in the room. The timing places the child squarely in the years before Shane and Ilya were exclusive, but the accusation explodes into a media storm that threatens Ilya’s reputation.

    Summary

    When Dennis agrees to be the temporary on-site doctor for a Pittsburgh Penguins hockey game as a favor to a classmate from medical school, he’s not expecting much. He’s not the first-choice to be team doctor, and he’s definitely not a hockey guy. His plan is simple: hide out on the sidelines until he can go home and crawl into bed. Funny how plans change.

     

    Or: Ilya takes a slapshot to the face and gets treated by a doctor who looks like a wet kitten.

    Absolute cinema. Ive seen a lot of people talking about this in twt and tt but i didnt know what to expect. Way better. Would have loved more drama and angst, but ut was such a good story. My two obsesions combined.

    Summary

    When he was seven years old, Shane Hollander was briefly lost at an airport. Luckily, the kindness of a stranger ensured he made it back to his parents safely, putting an end to a terrifying three hours for the Hollanders. It takes twenty years (and one heated rivalry) for Shane to learn the name of his rescuer. It takes twenty years for Ilya to learn his wish had already come true.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is the number two overall NHL draft pick and a newly minted Montreal Voyageur. He’s also laser focused on his goals: being the best by beating the best. For him, this means a continued rivalry with number one draft pick—and new Ottawa Centaur—Ilya Rozanov. But when a problem with Rozanov’s immigration paperwork threatens his future in the NHL, what does that mean for Shane’s own career? He can’t risk finding out…so they get married. Just for immigration. A fast, practical, mutually beneficial solution.

    No one will ever suspect, let alone find out, that the NHL’s greatest rivals are secretly married. And there’s certainly no risk of feelings getting involved. They have a game plan.

    Honestly this was very well written, and there was almlst no angst, which kind of surprised me in a good way. I definetly thought they would tell more people, but im happy i couldn't predict this. Overall 10/10 PEC

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Honestly I kimd of have a love-hate relationship with this. Its the best written thing i have read in some time. It has amazing characters, a good story, everything makes sense. But for some reason, i did not like how it ended? This is just a me thing, but i think it might be how everything was resolved? And how despite there being a clear relationship troy kept persuing Shane. It made me a bit uncomfortable to read? I think mainly because there wasnt a big enough judtificayion flr troy to persue him. Im not sure. Again, its very well written and i will definetly check out more things that the author had done, because they have an amazing writting style, but I dont think I can read this story again. Like, the first chapters were amazing, but the last two made me physically uncomfortable. If that was the intention of the author it was very well done, honestly. And from the few things i have read Troy/Shane is kinda cute, although i think I should really read the books. No further comment.
