Free Audiobook : Long Shot (Hoops Series, Book 1), by Kennedy Ryan

In the high-stakes world of the NBA, where dreams soar and hearts break, Long Shot by Kennedy Ryan delivers a love story that’s as gripping as it is gut-wrenching. Iris DuPree meets August West in a chance encounter that sparks an undeniable connection, a fleeting moment of what could be. But with her life tangled in a relationship that’s far from perfect, their electric chemistry is a promise they can’t yet keep, setting the stage for a journey that’s equal parts hope and heartbreak.

Iris is a woman with ambition, caught in a world that tests her strength in ways she never imagined. August, a rising basketball star, is everything she shouldn’t want: kind, determined, and impossibly out of reach. As their paths cross again, the pull between them grows stronger, but shadows from Iris’s past threaten to keep them apart. This audiobook weaves a tale of resilience and forbidden desire, pulling you into the emotional deep end with every chapter.

Kennedy Ryan’s storytelling is raw and unflinching, painting a vivid picture of love’s power to heal and the courage it takes to break free. Narrated with heart by Sean Crisden and Jo Raylan, this audiobook will make you feel every high and low, from the thrill of a packed stadium to the quiet moments of a soul fighting to rise.
