The Long Game

The powerful continuation of Shane and Ilya’s unforgettable love story

To the world they are rivals. To each other, they are everything.

For more than a decade, NHL superstars Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov have shared a secret that could change everything. On the ice, they are legendary competitors—captains of rival teams, fierce opponents, and two of the best players in the league. Off the ice, however, they share a love that has quietly grown stronger year after year.

For ten years they have hidden their relationship from teammates, family, the media, and the league itself. Shane believes secrecy is the only way to protect everything he has worked for. His career, his leadership role, and his place at the top of professional hockey could all be at risk if the truth came out.

But keeping their love hidden has a cost.

Ilya has spent years accepting stolen moments and private happiness, yet he is growing tired of living in the shadows. He wants more than secrecy—he wants a real life together. A life where their love isn’t something that has to be hidden from the world.

Now Shane and Ilya face the most difficult choice of their lives.

Stay safe and protect their careers… or finally fight for the future they truly want.
