An Obsessive Stalker Dark Hockey Romance
I don’t want to be loved. I want to be the lock on her door, the eyes in her hallway, and the last thing standing between her and the world.
Maren Aldrich just inherited a billion-dollar NHL hockey team and a craving she can't admit out loud: the possessive captain whose contract she owns. She tells herself it's just a photo. Just a private moment. Just a line a boss should never cross with a player.
Then she crosses it—and hands him exactly what he's been waiting for.
Beckett Vaughn has spent his career being the man everyone watches. What no one knows is who he watches back. Driven by an obsessive need, he turned her own surveillance against her—learning the exact rhythm of her days, the layout of her shadows, and the sound of her breathing in the dark. He knows he should stop. He isn't going to.
But Beckett isn't the only stalker watching Maren.
Her ex never raised his voice, but his quiet control was physically abusive, and he never truly let her go. Maren thinks she’s finally safe, but the threat is closer than her cameras can see. When danger forces them into a brutal, claustrophobic proximity, a lethal game begins. As a predator turns into her ultimate morally grey protector, Beckett must decide how far he’ll go to shield the woman he claims as his.
Owned is a tense, scorching dark hockey romance featuring an owner-player forbidden dynamic.
