    Summary

    As a straight man, Ilya Rozanov has never had a gay roommate before, but it’s going pretty well. Shane Hollander is kind, silly, and an even bigger hockey nut than Ilya.

    So when Shane starts bringing men over, and Ilya begins to want to bash their fucking heads in, Ilya comes to a startling conclusion: He must be homophobic.

    (He’s jealous.)

    Summary

    Rule number one of fieldwork: don’t get caught. 

    Rule number two: don’t get emotionally attached to your contacts. 

    Rule number three: only know what you’re officially supposed to know—anything else you take to your grave.

    And Rule number 81: don’t have a son destined for a professional hockey career that will constantly place you in the public eye.

    Or the one where Ilya sees a ghost from his past in his greatest lovers' rivals' father, and then is pretty much constantly confused for the next seven years.

    Summary

    Shane wants to figure out if he's gay before he gets drafted—and no, the way he felt when Ilya Rozanov smirked at him with a cigarette between his lips in Saskatchewan has nothing to do with it. Unfortunately, the random guy he hooks up with to try and make sure one way or another takes a picture, and Shane gets outed before the draft. In the ensuing scandal, he goes seventh overall, to Ottawa.

    It turns out, having the worst thing you can think of happen to you when you're seventeen years old can end up being pretty liberating. And land you an unexpected best friend.
