Summary
Shane Hollander does not leave outcomes to chance. When traditional dating fails to produce the stability he wants, he turns to a private matchmaker who promises something more deliberate: one match, one meeting, one decision.
Ilya Rozanov never planned to get married. But when his carefully controlled life starts to unravel, marriage becomes the simplest solution.
Neither of them is looking for love. What they agree to is a calculated partnership, built on alignment, not emotion.
It should be straightforward.
It is not.

Summary
It starts with a weed-eater, “For trimming around my gardens, Shane.” Ilya will start up his weed-eater, solid arms yanking the pull chain back, he’ll walk around his raised garden beds and along the edges of his flower beds, carefully trimming the grass. He always does it shirtless. Shane would argue that it wasn’t appropriate dress for manual labor, but then he wouldn’t get to see Ilya’s gorgeous broad shoulders shinning with sweat. He wouldn’t get to watch the line of Ilya’s back as he lifts the shockingly heavy equipment.
A look at several summers at the cottage and Ilya's love for yard work and Shane's love for watching his husband do yard work.

Summary
Shane knew, is the thing. He knew and he didn’t let himself know. Like so many things, he didn’t want to think about it, so he didn’t. There was so much else he could focus on, after all.
When he moved in with Ilya in Ottawa, Ilya told him they could never have a gun in the house. It’s the kind of statement that begs for questions, and Shane didn't ask.
Or: Ilya almost dies, and it's not an accident. He survives, but Shane struggles in the aftermath.

Summary
Shane’s brain cycled rapidly through a half-dozen celebrities, porn actors, Grindr profiles, every attractive bartender who’d ever served him a beer, trying to find a comparison for this level of outrageously concentrated beauty in one person, but he was drawing a blank.
The man—Ilya Rozanov, Facilities Attendant, his badge read—gestured around the supply closet. “I help you find something?”

Canon-divergent AU set during the 2017-18 MLH season. Shane Hollander doesn’t have a single Cup to his name when he meets a very hot and very annoying janitor who works at the Metros stadium. -

Summary
"You are back," Ilya says and apparently Shane's that pathetic, because he has to press his lips together to hide his smile, feeling way happier than he ought to just because Ilya apparently remembers him. "Miss me already?"
______________When Shane agrees to do Hayden a favor and picks up his friend's car from the shop, he doesn't expect the guy working there to look like that, quite literally straight out of Shane's fantasies. Too bad he probably won't see him again.
Or so he thought. His car breaks down a week later and Shane goes back to the shop with a plan. Sort of.
