    Summary

    Two NHL superstars. One secret casual relationship hidden beneath years of rivalry, tabloids, and fear.

    Losing Shane makes Ilya realize one terrifying truth: some people are worth risking everything for.

    Summary

    During the quiet stretch of the off-season, when the world slows and the rink sits nearly empty, Shane and Ilya make a life-changing decision, they become foster parents.

    They expect paperwork, waiting, and time to prepare. Instead, they get three children that same night.

    Logan, Kaitlyn, and Maggie arrive with everything they own in trash bags and more weight on their shoulders than any child should carry. What follows is their journey of learning how to comfort, navigate anger, and how to build trust with kids who have only ever known instability.

    For when you want a story that will tear your heart out (and hopefully put it back together)

     

    One of the most realistic foster kid stories I have ever read.

    Proceed with caution and tissues.

    Summary

    When Yuuri was drafted by the Detroit Red Wings, it was a dream come true. Years of practice, of hard work, of talking to scouts and agents, of posting his own highlights on Youtube — it all paid off. Sure, he went in the seventh round, surrounded by players who were probably never going to make the show, but Pavel Datsyuk went in the sixth and look at his career. Yuuri was going to make it. He moved all the way across the world for this, competed internationally for this, bled and cried for this. He was going to make it to the NHL.

    Yuuri didn't make it.

    If you loved Heated Rivalry and Yuri on Ice this is the fic for you.

     

    You cannot tell me that Heated Rivalry isn't the spiritual child of this fic I will not believe you.

    Summary

    The portal between Heaven and Hell wasn’t meant to be used for personal messages or gifts.

    But they kept doing it anyway.

    This is a story about love across realms, about grief and fear and healing, about found family and second chances—and the explosions left in the wake of longing.

    Pentious died for her once.
    Cherri would burn Heaven for him.
    Angel Dust is fading in the shadows.

    And Hell itself is about to shake.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    One of the BEST WRITTEN fics I have ever read, better than some published words...a lot of published works...
    ANYWAY even if, like me, you are barely lukewarm about heterosexual pairings give this thing a shot.
    My gay ass was teetering on the edge of my seat about the TENSION here, both plot and romantic.
    fucking brilliant writing.
