Pucking Possessive (Kings of Castlebrook, #2)

Callum Grey has been obsessed with Lilac Fairbanks for as long as he can remember. She’s the one girl he can’t have because she's his best friend’s little sister, but he’ll do anything to keep her safe. His bad-boy reputation is meant to deceive everyone, because he’s been protecting her in secret all along.

One reckless dare takes a deadly turn when Callum and Lilac break into the mansion on the cliffs and witness a murder that puts a target on them. With everyone pointing fingers, Lilac’s parents try to leverage the scandal to trap her in a marriage with a guy who makes her skin crawl. Callum offers her a way out: a public proposal that will create a distraction from the night on the cliffs and ruin her mother’s plans in one stroke.

Agreeing to a fake engagement comes with a price. Callum has rules: they’ll act like a real couple, whether they’re in public or not. Lilac quickly discovers that her first crush who taught her how to skate all those years ago has a new favorite game that involves a mask and chasing her through the graveyard. When their friends begin turning up dead, Lilac quickly realizes that this engagement is anything but fake to Callum, and there isn’t anyone he wouldn’t cross to protect her.
