From high school bully to potential soulmate… Can this college student trust her heart—and her secret—to the doctor who once shattered it?

Crystal thinks she’s got it all figured out. Her life is perfectly balanced with nursing school, church leadership, and working as a part-time barista at Joy’s Coffeehouse, which allows her to study between customers. Fresh from a breakup and focused on her future, she’s determined to keep her life on track. No distractions, right?

Wrong!

An unexpected twist of fate brings Dr. Thomas—Crystal’s high school crush-turned-bully—into the cafe. Now a swoon-worthy physician, he quickly becomes a regular at both her workplace and the university hospital where she’s completing her nursing degree. His change from an arrogant teenage quarterback to a compassionate doctor sparks an attraction. As their paths continue to cross, she finds herself caught between the pull of her heart and the practicality of her overscheduled life.

Beneath Crystal’s carefully crafted exterior lies a secret that threatens to destroy any chance at finding love and unravel her entire world. The secret—an unexpected pregnancy—concealed under loose scrubs and her perfect church leader image. The father, a vindictive professor, threatens her nursing career dreams. As her connection with the charming Dr. Thomas grows, so does the pressure to confide in someone—anyone. Crystal desperately needs help, but can she trust the reformed bully?

As the clock ticks between cafe shifts and hospital rounds, Crystal’s hidden truth becomes a time bomb. Will she find the strength to unveil her truth, or will her secret shatter her dreams of becoming a nurse and finding love?
