A doctor-patient forbidden romance.

He walked into her ER cocky and bleeding. He walked out under her skin.

Lucas Vega is a walking inferno—broad-shouldered, rough-edged, and way too charming for his own good. After a rescue call goes sideways, he winds up in Dr. Emma Clarke's ER, all swagger and sarcasm and not nearly as fine as he claims to be.

Emma's used to patching up stubborn men. What she's not used to? The way this firefighter watches her like she's the only thing holding him together. She knows better than to blur the lines—especially after what happened with her last mistake.

But Lucas is done playing cool. He craves control—except when it comes to her. And the moment Emma lays a firm hand on his chest and tells him to stay still… he's gone.

What starts as care turns molten fast— Rough hands. Filthy praise. And a man who falls hardest when he finally lets someone in.

Now Lucas has to face the guilt he's buried deep—and prove to the one woman who sees straight through him that he's not just worth saving. He's worth choosing.
