Summary
Someone somewhere said any two people on earth can be linked with only 6 degrees of separation. Shane played this game in his head sometimes. He would make up maps of these links, just for the exercise of it. What he didn't do was map his connection to Ilya Rozanov, who had yet to walk into his life and crash down all 6 degrees of separation in one reckless fell swoop. Shane didn't know it, but he was already 6 degrees away from Ilya Rozanov. Because Shane was driving to Montreal, and Montreal was where a modeling agency he didn't know the name of was based. And that modeling agency recently put an ad out for a new campaign. That ad was seen by a girl named Svetlana who had curly hair and a quick, smart tongue. And that girl had called her best friend, Ilya Rozanov, and said, “There's work for you in Montreal, if you're good enough.” And Ilya Rozanov had been good enough, and was finally, finally getting out of Moscow after 19 miserable years. And those 6 degrees of separation would soon be just 1, because Ilya Rozanov & Shane Hollander would be existing in the same city without either knowing the other one existed.

Summary
TL;DR: It's like Friends meets Almost Famous with HR incidents and better oatmeal continuity.
Shane Hollander is a freelance concert photographer with a day job at a camera shop, a bank account in active distress, and a long-standing professional fixation on Ilya Rozanov, front man of the Russian rock band Rozanov. Professional. Definitely professional.
For years, Shane has shot Ilya from the pit: first three songs, no flash, get the shot, get out. Then Rozanov’s lead guitarist gets arrested at the border, the tour starts rearranging itself around disaster, and Shane finds himself getting closer to the machine than any photographer is supposed to get.
A photo pass becomes a backstage pass. A backstage pass becomes a job. Access becomes proximity.
And proximity, unfortunately, has consequences.

Summary
23 years ago, during a long hot summer in Italy, Shane Hollander fell in love for the first and only time in his life. Now, he and his family are heading back to their Italian summer home for one last gathering. Recently retired from the NHL, learning to live with the teenaged son he found out about six months ago, and carting around his father's ashes because his mother has nightmares about losing them in baggage check, Shane is struggling to find his footing in a post-hockey life he never imagined. And he's definitely not interested in romance or a relationship.
Which is too bad, because Ilya Rozanov has a plane ticket to Italy, his therapist's approval, and one mission: finally tell Shane Hollander how he feels about him.
A story of first loves and second chances, heartbreak and healing, and getting your groove back.
