    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is ranked second in his class, guitarist in the most popular band on campus, and has spent two and a half years at the University of Ottawa being insufferable about both.

    Shane Hollander is ranked first, keeps to himself, and wants nothing to do with Ilya Rozanov—until Ilya's band loses their bassist and the only person available is the one person Ilya has never been able to beat.

    Or,

    What if Shane and Ilya weren’t hockey rivals, but academic rivals instead?

    Summary

    “Tell me why I should take you instead, Hollander,” Rozanov ordered. He pronounced every syllable in his last name and purposely drew it out.

    "You want silence. Think about the silence that comes from permanently ending a bloodline. Think about the silence that comes after the scream of a mother who has lost her only child. If you want her to suffer the way you have, then let me take her place and let her live with that. Take me instead of her.”

    Rozanov appeared to be considering the offer. He angled his head at Shane before speaking, “Shane Hollander, do you want to pay the debt your family owes to me by taking the place of your mother?”

    “Yes,” Shane replied without hesitation.

    Or: Mob Boss Grigori Rozanov is murdered in a hit and his son Ilya Rozanov seeks vengeance against those who have wronged his family. Revenge will cost Shane Hollander his freedom, his life, and more after he offers to take his mother's place on Rozanov's hit list.

    Summary

    Despite Hollander shaking the foundation of his belief system, there are some truths Ilya will never be able to deny about the world.
    Purple marks do not exist.
    Green is reserved to familiar love.
    Friends leave bright orange streaks on his shoulders and arms, but if the bond is deep and mutual the handprints become a rich blue (Ilya's favourite colour).

    In a world where the love of others leaves stains on your skin, what happens when a stranger leaves a purple mark on your hand? And what does it mean when the colour suddenly changes?

    Summary

    Ilya was stuck with Shane Hollander’s stupidly pretty face on the side of a mountain for the entire summer, with only a few horses, mules, dogs, and a thousand or so sheep to distract him.

    He knew himself well enough to know that he had a hard time avoiding trouble, and Shane Hollander was going to be the definition of trouble.

    He felt his muscles relax the way they only ever did when he was off the grid, free from the weight of people raising their eyebrows when they heard his strange accent or asking him too many questions about where he came from.

    Out here, it was just him, the mountains, and the animals. And, he supposed, Shane Hollander.

    Or, Shane and Ilya follow the path of Ennis and Jack from Brokeback Mountain, working as cowboys together summer after summer, and dealing with the feelings that they can only explore on Wolfbird Mountain.

    Summary

    “Oh my god,” Hollander squeaks suddenly.

    Ilya freezes. “…What.”

    Hollander is staring downward. “Are you hard?” His voice is higher, not like the monotone that he's gotten used to.

    Ilya instinctively steps back and glances down. Fuck. Yes. Very. He exhales heavily. This is unfortunate. He’s not mortified—he’s never been ashamed of his sex drive—but this situation could easily become awkward and borderline predatory.

    ***

    Or, Ilya Rozanov is a legend, one of the greats of hockey, and the new head coach of the Boston Raiders, and his life is derailed by Shane Hollander, the 19-year-old genius rookie from Montreal.
