She's a duty. Nothing more. But when she tries to manipulate our arrangement, she'll be forced to learn she's mine.

Henry

As the sole male heir to the Mathers legacy, I have a lot of my shoulders.

My grandfather put trust in me. Sure, he gave my sister his hockey team. But everything else? That's mine.

Including an arranged marriage with Freya Reynolds, a girl who rebels at every chance she can get.

Including attending the Ravenwood Imprinting Ceremony.

Ravenwood is a secret society so deeply embedded in the Crestwood framework, only a handful of elites are chosen.

And she thinks she can get claimed by one of the men within the society? As though that would break our engagement off?

So, I do the only thing I can to maintain control: I claim her for myself.

Freya

I'm desperate.

At this point, I'm willing to do anything.

I don't want this engagement, even if it is to a Mathers. My parents refuse to entertain my arguments against this; they barely speak to me as it is. Which means it's on me to solve this.

When my boyfriend breaks up with me because Henry crosses a line, I realize I don't have a choice.

I take the exclusive invite to some secret society's party in the hopes that Henry won't want me if I belong to someone else.

I don't like being owned by someone, but at this point, I'm willing to do anything as long as it gets me out of this engagement.

It's an act of rebellion, sure, but it's one of the few choices I'm able to make.

Until I get to the ceremony... and Henry claims me himself.

Checks & Bonds is a stand-alone arranged marriage dark hockey romance featuring a stoic Alpha hockey player who always has to be in control and the fierce rebel who challenges everything he thought he knew. It has a guaranteed HEA and no cliffhanger.
