A life saved.

A boundary tested.

Falling for him was never the plan.

Doctor Silas Montgomery doesn't do distractions. As an ER surgeon, his job comes first-always. But after saving the life of a young police officer, he finds himself haunted by a connection he never asked for.

Officer Terran Bishop thought moving to a small town would mean fewer risks. Instead, one mistake puts him face-to-face with the intense doctor who stitched him back together-and awakened something neither of them expected.

As desire grows and boundaries blur, Silas must decide whether to keep hiding behind his work... or finally let someone in.
