Summary
Shane wakes up on Tuesday at 5:26 AM on game day in Boston, four minutes before his alarm goes off. Shane wants it to be Wednesday. But no matter what, Shane wakes up on Tuesday at 5:26 AM on game day in Boston, four minutes before his alarm goes off.
”Fuck,” he croaks. “Fuck, fuck, fuck.”
Chapter 1: Shane wakes up on the same Tuesday over and over again after leaving Rozanov in a rush. Tuesday is his second least favourite day of the week, so he's not really happy about it.
Chapter 2: Ilya notices Shane acts strangely. He just never remembers.

Summary
The text arrives a second later. Being stuck in the airport is almost as boring as you
Another text from Lily: Send me a picture. I’m sooooo bored.
Shane lifts his phone and snaps a photo of the screen above the airline kiosk instead. JFK -> PHX - CANCELED. He hits send.
The phone rings immediately. “You are at JFK,” Rozanov says. Not a question.

Summary
Shane Hollander, first-round draft pick of 2009, captain of the legendary Montreal Metros, is twenty-seven years old and has never won the Stanley Cup; it's starting to seem like maybe he never will. It's time Shane started thinking about a second act that will change his post-retirement narrative and give him the one thing he can't bring himself to contemplate: a life without hockey.
Enter ABC's The Bachelor. Shane's mom and his agent seem to think this reality show might be the ticket for him to reinvent himself in the public eye. All he needs to do is be charismatic, flirtatious, and witty... in front of a camera... and thirty girls desperate enough to overlook the fact that Shane himself couldn't be less interested in marrying any of them.
Thank goodness for producer Ilya Rozanov, who's taken a weirdly personal interest in helping Shane out with all of this...

Summary
If someone had asked him this morning, Hayden would have begrudgingly admitted that he wasn’t quite on the Ilya bandwagon, but he was getting close to thinking about climbing aboard. He was getting closer every day, and Shane knew it.
Which is why it was a shame Hayden was going to have to murder Ilya Rozanov.

Summary
Ilya knows there is a thing about himself he has to always keep hidden in the deepest recesses of his body, behind his molars and in his core. He thinks Shane Hollander might be the same, except the thing about him he cannot hide.
Ilya Rozanov is the biggest hockey talent of his generation. So is Shane Hollander.
But over the years Ilya notices that the vicious media and the clamouring fans and some of his more foul-mouthed teammates treat Hollander differently than any other hockey player.
