Summary
“Papa, what’s your job?”
Ilya opens his mouth. Closes it. He looks at Shane, who is suddenly very interested in his coffee.
“My job,” Ilya says slowly, “is to take care of you.”
“That’s not a job,” Wyatt says matter-of-factly. “That’s just being a papa.”
“Yes,” Ilya agrees. “It is.”
In September 2030, Ilya Rozanov is newly retired, newly restless, and learning the hard way that staying home with their three-year-old son is more exhausting than any playoff run. Shane Hollander is back on the ice, chasing another season while missing things he can’t get back.
After more than a decade together, Ilya and Shane must relearn the hows of their relationship—what comes after happily ever after.
