    Summary

    After years apart, a phone call pulls Ennis Del Mar back into Jack Twist’s life at the worst possible time. Nothing’s simple between them, not now, not ever, but some things are worth showing up for, even when it hurts. They finally have the ranch they used to dream about, tucked away in the Colorado pines. It should feel like a happy ending, but healing takes time, and it doesn’t come easy.

    And somewhere down the line, a quiet, skittish kid with a busted truck and nowhere left to go ends up on their doorstep.

    This is a disabled Jack fic, If you don't like it. Don't read it.

    Summary

    The Quiet Fight was survival.
    After the Fight was aftermath.
    The Life We Build is legacy.

    With retirement on the horizon, Ilya and Shane are trying to build a future beyond the ice. But the world hasn’t softened. Old hate resurfaces, a long-dormant fear returns, and just as they begin the fragile process of starting a family, everything fractures again.

    This time, the fight isn’t about staying alive. It’s about choosing what comes next.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander disappears from the NHL at twenty with a career-ending “injury.”

    Four years later, he’s the new assistant coach for the Ottawa Centaurs when Ilya Rozanov signs with the team. His former rival. His secret hookup. The father of his daughter.
    Ilya doesn’t know Lily exists and Shane plans to keep it that way.

    But three-year-olds don’t keep secrets, and neither do pale blue eyes.
