Ricochet

Some secrets are buried so deep that the only person who can unearth them is the one man you never wanted to see again.

Callum Hayes has built his entire existence around control. After a childhood shattered by grief and the discovery of his stepfather's brutal murder, he wears his silence like armor—impenetrable, necessary, and completely non-negotiable. As a college hockey player, he channels every dark emotion into the ice, where aggression has a purpose and vulnerability gets you killed.

Then Stone Wakefield joins the team.

Stone was there five years ago. He saw Callum at his most exposed, his most broken—and Callum has never forgiven him for it. The hostility between them crackles like a live wire through every practice, every locker room standoff, every collision on the ice. Callum wants him gone. Stone, however, wants something far more dangerous: he wants Callum entirely.

Stone's obsession isn't gentle or rational. It's consuming and possessive and shadows Callum's every move with an intensity that blurs the line between protection and predation. As the pressure of the season mounts and something sinister begins circling the edges of their world, their mutual hatred transforms into something neither of them can outrun—electric, volatile, and deeply, recklessly addictive.

*Ricochet* is a dark, heat-soaked college hockey romance where the enemies-to-lovers slow burn cuts as sharp as a blade and the secrets between two men are far more dangerous than either of them anticipated.
