    Bookmarker's Notes

    I’ve read a lot of fan fiction since early March, and when something grabs me, I can get a little gushy. This one absolutely earned it. From the very beginning, the premise was fresh — completely different from anything I’ve seen in the fandom. If you’re craving drama, excitement, and that deep sense of love and family, look no further. You’ve found your match.

    This was a new author for me, and I’m genuinely delighted. Read it. Love it. Read it again. And since it’s not complete yet, hit subscribe so you don’t miss a single update.

    Summary

    After the tuna melt incident, after he ran out on Ilya, after Rose, Shane is determined on righting his wrong and winning back his man. But a catastrophic and nearly fatal accident on the ice threatens to put a pin in Shane’s plans indefinitely.

    While in a coma Shane finds himself confronted with the question, what if he didn’t run out on Ilya that day? What if he stayed? What follows is them coming to terms with their true feelings for each other, taking care of each other and a series of events that is basically a speed walk through the obstacles in the way of them and the life they want to have with each other.

    Includes a lot of (inaccurate) medical stuff, Yuna and David being supportive parents, Hayden and JJ being supportive friends and an intimate but not at all sexual shower scene.

    -

    Chapter 9: *most.

    Ilya goes back to Russia for his father's funeral. Thankfully he doesn't have to go back alone.

    I've liked this since the first chapter, but it has been growing inside my head. Give this a read. You'll be glad you did.

    Summary

    He figures Ilya would be pretty surprised if he showed up to his house out of the blue. Surprised enough to be put off, probably. Shane is way too bad of a liar to think of any plausible excuse. If this is really happening, if Shane is actually by some miracle getting another shot at this, then he’s going to have to play this smart. His impatience to see Ilya again will have to be tempered. He’s not sure how time travel works, but he has the sneaking suspicion that one wrong move could unravel everything.

    Ilya is alive.

    Just the thought of it is enough to make Shane crack his first smile in a year.

    --

    AU in which Ilya dies in the Centaurs' plane crash. A year later, careless with grief, Shane drives his car into a blizzard and wakes up in Boston, in 2016. When faced with the opportunity to do it right this time, and keep Ilya for good, Shane knows that every decision he makes will be crucial. It's terrifying, but Ilya once told him that he's brave. Now it's up to Shane to prove it.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    What an unexpected rush.
    Read this. I mean it. READ THIS. If you only have time for one fic today. Choose this. You can feel the love, hope, and some fear. Just read it. I'm terrible at summarizing. So, I won't even try.

    Damn, I loved this. Thank you.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Usually, I'm a canon current reader. Reading this made me yearn for them to be together. She's keeping me coming back for more. Love will win, I'm sure of it.

    I'm just a few chapters from the ending and I'm afraid. I really am not ready for this tale to end. I've loved everything about this.

    Summary

    A series of canon-compliant Hollanov oneshots that (mostly) take place post The Long Game. Mostly lighthearted, with a variety of different stories from both Shane and Ilya's POV. They all take place in the same universe; however they all are written to work as standalones. Read them in any order you like. They are ordered in chronological order. Posted order is as follows:

    1. Plentiful, but Ultimately Finite/Another Home (Another Home is a PBUF rewrite)
    2. Absolutely Not
    3. A Full Night's Rest
    4. Newlywed Games
    5. The Other Side of the Road
    6. One Unending Fight
    7. Shots
    8. Invisible String
    9. The Best Thing
