Summary
Shane Hollander arrives in Vegas with a question he hasn’t spoken out loud.
It isn’t complicated, exactly. It’s just the kind of question that requires honesty he isn’t sure he’s ready for - about what he and Ilya Rozanov have been doing for the past few years, about what six months of silence after Sochi actually meant, and about whether any of it is worth staying close to or whether he finally needs to go.
He gets his answer in a locked bathroom at the NHL Awards.
Ilya spends the summer convinced that Shane is fine. Upset? Yes. Angry? Definitely. But Shane always felt things fiercely despite what everyone said about him when he had his back turned. He’d calm down over the summer and then he’d be there like he always had been. He fills the silence with discipline and routine and the comfortable certainty that later is still available to him.
He’s wrong.
By the time Ilya understands what he actually lost, Shane is already gone; and Ilya is left trying to find a way back to someone who closed the door long before Ilya had ever thought to just walk through it.

Summary
Shane fucking Hollander. Hockey’s Golden Boy. Long-time crush of Ilya Rozanov. Long, looooong time. A decade of being a fucking simp for this man. God, he was in trouble.
It should be pretty much illegal to go from their only contact being at face-off across the ice, to suddenly hosting Shane in his exclusive club—during a fucking event, no less. Ilya’s event.
He would never admit it, but he’s been stealthily trying to get Hollander to show up at his club for years now. Hell, Shane was the whole reason he invested in the club in the first place. Bought a fucking house here. Maybe that was an insane thing to do, but he didn’t care. Ilya was insane. Insane for Shane.

Summary
We know them as jocks, but how are they as nerds? Shane Hollander is a bright PhD student in the Hunter lab and has now been forced to collaborate with an irritating postdoc, Ilya Rozanov from the Crowell lab. He is unbearable to be around, but Shane quickly realises that he is sweet and vulnerable beneath that tough exterior. The dark side of academia threatens to consumes them, but Shane would do anything to protect Ilya from it. Because he is Shane motherfucking Hollander.
(aka the author is a researcher and has nothing better to do than combine her interests)

Summary
Shane Hollander would rather be training than playing nice for a sponsor. But a two-week cross-promo called Rivalry Weekend drags the stone-cold MMA star into Ilya Rozanov’s world, first behind the glass at a heated hockey game, then into rehearsed “chemistry” shoots that feel way too real.
Ilya is loud, reckless, and relentless, chirping until he finds hairline cracks in Shane’s perfect control, a smirk, a huffed laugh, a reaction Shane can’t afford to give. Ilya’s teammates know he’s bisexual. Shane is fully closeted, hiding behind discipline and silence, and a manager who treats his image like property.
As the campaign escalates toward fight night, the tension turns brutal. One wrong hit, one wrong look, and Shane’s secrets threaten to spill. Ilya doesn’t make a scene. He just watches, worries, and refuses to let Shane disappear.
