Moonshot

Moonshot

by Ronja T. Lejonhjärta

Colt has always known what a moonshot is—the dream so impossible it hurts just to want it. For him, that dream has always been Zoey, the girl who was off-limits, the one he teased, the one he secretly protected. Now she’s no longer just his best friend’s little sister; she’s the woman who makes his carefully built world tilt on its axis. Zoey’s presence pulls him into a whirlwind of heart and heat, where desire feels dangerous but irresistible. Wanting her is reckless, but not wanting her feels impossible. Can a soul-deep yearning ever be enough to bridge the distance between what’s forbidden and what feels fated?
