I’m supposed to focus on saving lives, not staring at Dr. Grant Foster’s mouth like I want it on my body.
He’s Harbor General Hospital’s most infuriating trauma surgeon—brilliant, brooding, and completely off-limits.
I smile. He scowls. I bake muffins. He breaks tablets.
But when we’re forced together in trauma bays, supply closets, and late-night shifts… the tension snaps.
One heated argument becomes one desperate kiss.
One forbidden night in the on-call room turns into a hunger we can’t hide.
Now I know what his hands feel like on my skin—and I want more.
He’s damaged. Secretive.
But the way he touches me? Like I’m the only thing keeping him breathing.
I finally let myself fall…
And now we’re one heartbeat away from losing it all—our jobs, our reputations, each other.
And the worst part?
I’d risk it all… for one more night tangled in him—and one chance to keep his heart.
