17... Qe5
defending c7 with Qxc7

 
18. Nxc7 Bxf2+ 19. Kxf2 Qxc7 20. Qh7+
The game ends in a draw by threefold rep. In conclusion, even though the game is a sure draw after 11. Bxh7 I feel that it is a good game for a novice to know since the pressure down the h-file maybe enough to scare a black opponent into a rash defense. Especially after 13. ...f6 after which 14. Qd5 could give what the upper hand.
