Being different than others isolates him in ways he can't understand, until a late autism diagnosis finally gives him the vocabulary needed to explain himself and his experiences. At first, he's ashamed, but, with Ilya's help, he begins to see the aspects of himself that he spent years hating in a new, brighter light.

    OR

    4 times Shane is ashamed of his autistic traits and 1 time Ilya shows him that he doesn't have to be.

    A Year In Montreal by

    Summary

    Once the glow of the cottage fades and the boys have to head back to the real world, they have to start the long difficult year being separated before Ilya signs with Ottawa. Or at least that was the plan, until Ilya opened his mouth and accidentally got himself traded to Montreal. But it’s fine, just one year for Ilya in Montreal and then their 10 year plan is back on track… Right?

    Through their year on the same team, Ilya helps Shane come to terms with the fact that his team kinda sucks, Hayden gets chirped into oblivion but still realizes that maybe Ilya Rozanov isn’t nearly as bad of a guy as he thought, and Hollanov come to terms with a new question they didn’t expect to ask.

    Now that they’ve gotten a taste of living together and being on the same team, how are they ever going to give it up?

    Creating a Hockey Power Couple by

    Summary

    It was no secret that Shane Hollander loved one thing and one thing only, which was hockey. He spent his free time reading hockey books and watching game tape. He had an entire synthetic rink built at his cottage. He had an encyclopedic knowledge of every hockey stat from the modern era. It was so obvious - the reason he hadn’t fallen in love yet was because he needed to be with another hockey player, someone who cared about the game just as much as he did. Or, at least, almost as much as he did. Hayden didn’t know if there was anyone in the universe that loved it as much as Shane.

    And, thankfully, there were twenty-three professional women hockey players in their city!! Sure, that didn’t sound like a lot, especially when you factored in how many of them were probably single, but it was better than nothing! Now he just had to figure out how to get Shane to spend some quality time with the Victoire players. How hard could that possibly be?

    OR

    Hayden tries to set Shane up with PWHL players. Instead of a girlfriend, Shane finds community and the support he needs to go after the man of his dreams.
