Publisher's Synopsis
In a Level-one trauma center where lives hang by a thread and coffee is a controlled substance, two nurses tumble headlong into a love story messier than the trauma ward on a Saturday night. Finding themselves in the cracks of the chaos-quick glances over IV drips, whispered secrets during midnight codes, proves exhilarating. Their romance isn't sweet; it's jagged, a wildfire burning through wards and break rooms. But love on a hospital's edge isn't just holding hands in the storm. It's surviving the hurricane that follows.
Enter, Lark. The colleague who shakes your hand like an ally, but plots like a villain. Perfect smile. Shifting intentions. She was the colleague who had your back-until she sunk the knife in. What started as friendly camaraderie turns into a nightmare as she reveals her real specialty: emotional manipulation with a scalpel-sharp edge. She's the shadow in every room, the doubt in every touch. She weaves herself into their story, a master manipulator who trades in jealousy and doubt like a black-market pharmacist. What started as flirtation becomes a battlefield, as she pulls every trick to rip them apart. Because sometimes love isn't a fairy tale-it's a battle you fight tooth and nail. It's brash, loud, and completely unapologetic. It's a life of late-night dives, rooftop stargazing, and more passion than the hospital's HR department can handle. Because if they can survive the storm, they might just be strong enough to build something beautiful from the rubble.
