Longshot

Three hearts. Two betrayals. One impossible choice.

Six years ago, DEA psychologist Nina Palmer lost the man she loved to deep cover—and buried the grief so deep it almost broke her. When Chris Longo came back from the dead, nothing was the same. Not for her. Not for the man she’d learned to trust in the aftermath.

Wyatt Booth never meant to fall for Nina. Never meant to get tangled in her past. But he stayed anyway—through the silence, through the scars, through the night that changed everything.

A shared night of reckless, blistering intimacy cracks their fragile triangle wide open. In the morning, Chris is gone. Wyatt stays. And Nina runs.

Now she's undercover inside the lion's den—embedded as a therapist to two cartel kings whose alliance could stop a global trafficking pipeline... or blow the entire operation sky-high. Chris and Wyatt are circling the same op from opposite sides, but their collision course isn’t just professional. It's personal. Violent. And intimate in ways neither man is ready to admit.

Because loving Nina means facing the truth: They were never just fighting for her. They’ve been falling for each other, too.

Gripping, visceral, and scorchingly intimate, Longshot is a high-heat romantic thriller about survival, shame, and the raw, terrifying power of connection. Featuring bisexual heroes, polyamorous healing, and a trauma-forged bond that refuses to break, this is a story about learning how to stay—when every instinct says to run.
