Summary
“Be careful,” Shane frets, one hand hovering over Ilya’s shoulder. “It’s icy, and I don’t want to be a widower.”
“Oh, we’d have to be much higher than this for the fall to kill me,” Ilya says, gaze still fixed on the cool black skyline. “At least seven stories.”
It’s not until much later, as the waitress is clearing the dishes from dinner, that Yuna finds herself wondering why Ilya knows exactly how high a fall needs to be in order to kill him.
Or: Yuna learns about Ilya's past bit by bit over the years.

Summary
At the other tables, their teammates talked and ate, laughed, rubbed their eyes, yawned, sipped coffee, were alive. Everything was normal. It was a normal morning before practice. Sid was going to dinner with Geno that evening, and after that he’d probably get laid. Tomorrow they’d play the Jets. Everything was fine.
“I hate fucking Winnipeg,” Sid said.
Geno grinned. “Yes, same.”

Summary
On Labor Day weekend in 2017, a reckless boating accident leaves thirteen-year-old Luke Hughes fighting for his life after his leg is shredded by a propeller. Though doctors save him, the injury ends his dream of ever competing in the NHL.
After nearly a year of grueling rehab, Luke feels isolated as Jack and Quinn prepare for their own careers. No longer welcome in their world of hockey, he moves in with his grandfather Marty in the New York suburbs. Marty, a retired FDNY battalion chief, offers stability, and points Luke towards another dream that only the bravest can answer.
Now a firefighter he’s assigned to Station 43 in Midtown Manhattan, where he forms a new kind of brotherhood with Mark and Ethan, the dynamic paramedics; Dylan and Rutger, who handle fire suppression; and Seamus, Luke's partner for rescues and extraction.
But with Jack just across the Hudson River, blood truly is thicker than water, and Luke must now fight a different kind of fire from that the Devil himself cannot put out.
