Summary
The woman had her hair tucked under a knit hat, and her eyes were actually kind.
"You are cold," she said.
"I'm fine," Shane said. His teeth betrayed him with a chatter.
She unwound her scarf from her own neck and wrapped it around his.
Eight-year-old Shane goes to a hockey camp in Moscow, becomes a victim to language barrier, and gets rescued by a woman who gives him her scarf and tells him snow angels are real.
Eighteen years later, Ilya finds out his mother had already met the love of his life.

Summary
Ilya Rozanov has a Stanley Cup, a dog with anxiety, and a husband who organizes spice racks by cuisine. What he doesn't have is Canadian citizenship. When a politically motivated challenge threatens his immigration case, the life he and Shane built in Ottawa becomes the thing he has to prove — to a government that wants documents, a public that wants scandal, and a country he chose for the only reason that mattered.

Summary
While Shane is away at a charity gala, the Pikes babysit an injured Ilya. Of course, Alexei decides this is a perfect time to make a reappearance.
OR
Rozanov tries to steady himself, biting off another foreign curse to pull that hockey-bred steel into his shoulders. Hayden beats him to it.
Just as an angry man bursts through the front door, Hayden shoves himself between Rozanov and the threat. Rozanov makes a sharp sound. Hayden ignores it to square his shoulders, and braces for whatever is about to come.
He isn’t Shane, and Rozanov certainly isn’t Jackie, but the equation is the same as earlier. If he’d expect his friend to stand between Jackie and danger, Hayden’s sure as hell willing to do the same.

Summary
Yuna pours him a glass of ice cold homemade lemonade without asking and hands it to him across the kitchen island, then announces, “Just as a heads up, me and David will leave for Japan over the weekend. My cousin invited us to spend the summer there at her lake house, and we could hardly say no to that. I will leave you a pair of keys so that you can still come and go.”
Wide-eyed, Ilya blinks at her. “Um?”
“You won’t be all alone,” says Yuna, immediately. “We have a son. Shane?”
or: Ilya has been asked to fix up the Hollander house over summer. Shane Hollander, the elusive son of the family, returns to town after thirteen years to watch over said house. The next six weeks are going to be incredibly interesting.

Summary
"Hey, how you feeling hun?" a quiet voice said sounding weirdly unlike his husbands.
Ilya slowly blinked open his eyes, the rooms lights had been dimmed and he silently thanked whoever this fake Shane was for turning them down. His head was fucking killing him.
"That's it, take your time," fake Shane said soothingly.
Ilya finally got his eyes open and began to look around the room, he was right, he had been in the hospital. Fuck that was a nasty hit, he wondered how long he'd been out for. He turned his head to ask fake Shane, when he locked eyes with him.
Ilya snatched his hand away sitting up far too fast as the room began to spin.
Why the fuck was Hayden Pike holding his hand and and calling him hun? Had Ilya died and gone to hell?
