Ricochet

by Liam DiCosimo River Hale

4.2

Callum Hayes has spent his life carefully guarding his secrets. Haunted by the childhood trauma of losing his mother and later discovering his stepfather’s brutal murder, he keeps his walls high and his emotions buried. That carefully constructed mask begins to crumble when Stone Wakefield, a man from his past who witnessed his deepest vulnerability five years ago, joins his college hockey team. For Callum, Stone represents a threat to the privacy he desperately craves, leading him to lean into an intense, friction-filled hostility. But for Stone, the dynamic is far more dangerous. He is consumed by a dark, obsessive need to protect and possess his teammate. As they navigate the high-stakes pressure of the ice, their mutual hatred shifts into something volatile and electric. *Ricochet* is a gripping, dark MM hockey romance that thrives on the enemies-to-lovers trope. It explores the blurred lines between trauma and obsession, following two broken men who find that their shared darkness might be the only thing that makes them whole. With high-octane tension and a relentless, possessive devotion, this story delivers a twisted yet deeply satisfying journey toward an unforgettable happily ever after.

“I’m not stalking you, Hayes.” 🙄🙄🤣🤣

Image 70: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars “I’m not stalking you, Hayes.” 🙄🙄🤣🤣 From the moment I read the dedication: “To those who crave their puck boys with an unhealthy dose of possession, obsession, and murder.” I knew I was in for a wild ride. And wow, did this book deliver! 💥Dark, intense, and completely addictive!💥Callum has lived through unimaginable pain. Losing his mother at eight was devastating, but finding his abusive stepfather murdered at sixteen changed something in him. He’s spent years hiding his wounds, keeping his secrets locked away, until Stone crashes back into his life. Stone saw what no one else was supposed to see. Callum’s vulnerability. And instead of turning away, he became something terrifying and beautiful, since that moment he was Callum's protector, his hunter in the dark, a beast willing to do anything to keep Callum safe. 🏒 Enemies to lovers? Check. 🔥 Possessive, obsessive, and dangerously devoted love interest? Double check. 💀 Morally gray antihero taking down the worst of the worst? Sign me up! This book is everything! The tension, the raw emotion, the electric chemistry between Callum and Stone—it had me hooked from start to finish. Stone is an absolute psychopath, but he’s Callum’s psychopath, and the way he melts for him? Perfection. The violence, the darkness, the unwavering devotion—it all works seamlessly to create a romance that is as twisted as it is incredibly sweet. I need more ASAP! 🖤 More)Hide) * !Image 72: Customer Image Thank you for your feedback Close Sorry, there was an error Close Sorry we couldn't load the review Try again Filtering customer reviews Loading customer reviews There was a problem filtering reviews.

See all formats and editions Callum Hayes The first time I witnessed death was my mother's when I was eight years old. It devastated me. The second was at sixteen when I stumbled on my stepfather's body after he was brutally murdered. That one screwed me up in a different way. Since then, I've kept my shadows at bay, my secrets locked up tight. That is, until Stone Wakefield joins my college hockey team. Five years ago, he saw something I meant to take to my grave. He saw me weak, and I hate him for it. I have no choice but to keep hating him so he never sees past my mask again. Stone Wakefield Callum hates me, and he does nothing to hide it. While that makes it easy to get under his skin, it presents a problem on the ice. However, the bigger threat is my growing need to protect and possess him. When I start to wonder if he's just as obsessed with me as I am with him, I'm not sure if I can stay away. I know I should because I have secrets of my own. But what if the darkness in both of us is the piece we've each been missing? Callum Hayes is mine. He just doesn't know it yet. Ricochet is a standalone dark MM hockey romance with a guaranteed HEA.
