Virginia Conner has spent years shaping the future she always wanted. Six months from finishing her residency at Yale-New Haven, she's known for her steady hands, sharp focus, and a compassion that sets her apart. Prestigious offers already wait, her career in medicine all but guaranteed.

Then one night, Colette is rushed into her ER. Fierce, magnetic, and edged with danger, she's nothing like anyone Virginia has ever met. Confidence radiates from her, mystery clings to her, and from the first glance Virginia feels a pull she can't explain.

What starts as duty quickly shifts into something far more consuming. Drawn into Colette's orbit, Virginia steps into a world of secrets and desire that threatens to upend everything she's built. But Colette's past won't stay buried, and when it resurfaces, it demands a choice.

Will Virginia risk her career, her safety, and her heart for a woman who could be both her salvation and her undoing?
