    Summary

    "Happy to be of service," Hayden bowed, and Shane laughed, just as the door clicked open again behind him.
    "Who is this?" A deep voice asked abruptly, in an accent that Shane dimly noticed sounded Russian.
    "Our new roommate, Rozanov," Hayden rolled his eyes with a long-suffering sigh. "I literally told you about him last night."
    Shane turned to see one of the most attractive men he'd ever seen in his life standing a foot away from him.
    Realizing he'd been staring for a moment too long, Shane stuck out his hand. "I'm Shane Hollander."
    The young man appraised him with disinterest for several seconds before saying, "Okay."
    Shane dropped his hand, his face burning.
    "Shane, this is Ilya Rozanov, but everyone just calls him Rozanov," Hayden exhaled. "And he is my asshole roommate of two years, going on three, and now one of your roommates.”
    Rozanov smirked. “You are mad I get my own room while you share with him.”
    “Oh, fuck off, Rozanov,” Hayden retorted. “Unlike you, I have friends, and one of them is Shane.”
    “I have friends,” Rozanov dismissed.
    “Friends that you don’t fuck,” Hayden clarified.

    Summary

    2014: Ilya Rozanov shocks the world and breaks Shane Hollander’s heart by disappearing without explanation, and without a goodbye kiss.

    2024: A devastating injury forces Shane to retire early, so he moves to a small town to coach girls hockey and figure out what the hell to do with the rest of his life.

    When recently divorced Ilya Rozanov walks into the rink with his twin girls, Shane has to decide if he’s brave enough to risk a second chance on a broken heart, and a rekindled romance with the first and only boy he ever loved.

    ***

    “So.” Ilya cleared his throat. “Should we tell the girls their Papa and their coach used to date?”

    “We didn’t date. We hooked up a few times, then you disappeared.” Shane looked away to hide his heartbreak as he lied, “It doesn’t even matter. It’s not like I loved you or anything.”

    “No, of course not.” Ilya tried to smile through a lie of his own, “I didn’t love you either.”

    Summary

    Snapshots of a full year in the lives of Ilya Rozanov, Shane Hollander, Kip Grady, and Scott Hunter after the events of 'tell me, is this freedom baby.' Each chapter will focus on a time and place where the four of them meet up during the course of a year after their trip to the cabin. Smut, friendship, relationship negotiations, and the role of both family and the outside world cause them to reflect on the changes they see happening. Part 3 of a series, and it won't make a lot of sense without reading the first two parts!
