Dr. Ash Blackwell knows better than to fall for a patient. How ripped he is, how sensitive he is - that’s all irrelevant. After her last relationship, where all she tried to do was make her parents happy, she just doesn’t want to fall in love again.

If she’s ever even really been in love...

She just wants to focus on my career. Screw making her parents proud. She’ll make herself proud. 

But Riley... he’s distracting. He’s not like any other patient she’s ever had. He’s fun, and he’s interesting, and he has muscles for days, and there’s something about him that is incredibly irresistible. 

It can’t happen, though. He’s her patient. That’s a 100 percent no-go. And she’s not looking to fall in love.

She’s not looking for anything. 

And she’s definitely not looking for him. 

Firefighter Riley Aisling wants to get back to his life, but a sudden health crisis after a terrible incident at work has him stuck in a hospital bed. There is nothing he wants more than to go back to his normal life, but something about the hospital is unavoidable. 

Something about his life has changed, and it isn’t just his health. 

It’s that doctor. That woman.

The one who comes to check on him. The one who talks to him about his heart. 

The idea of going back to his life...before she was in it... it terrifies him. Upsets him. Makes him feel like, maybe, his old life isn’t worth pursuing after all. 

Before he knows it, he has to choose the life he worked so hard for or the woman he has fallen so deeply, desperately in love with?
