Some loves are worth fighting for... even when hearts have already broken. ────୨ৎ──── Valerie: I save lives every day-yet I can't save my marriage. Somewhere between late-night surgeries and the years that slipped by, Elias and I lost each other. The boy who once knew every version of me now feels like a stranger I sleep beside. Unseen. Unheard. Unloved. So I do the hardest thing I've ever done: I ask for a divorce. Not because I don't care... but because staying is slowly breaking me. And walking away feels like the only way to find myself again. Elias: Valerie wants a divorce. The woman I've loved since I was sixteen... the woman who is my home... is ready to walk away. I don't blame her. I've been distant, buried in work, blind to how much she's been hurting. But losing her? That's not an option. So I'll fight for her. For us. For every moment we let slip through our fingers. Because our story isn't over-not if I have anything to say about it.

A lie to protect him. A deal for her future. A love neither of them planned. ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ── Maya: I never meant to get involved in Dr. Nash Colton's life. He's my boss. My rival. My least favorite person in the hospital. But one misunderstanding at a bar turns into a custody worker who thinks I'm Nash's girlfriend. Now my arrogant boss wants me to fake-date him-and I need the cover just as badly. It's temporary. It's pretend. So why does it start feeling dangerously real? Nash: I didn't choose this lie. But Dr. Maya Harper might be the only person who can help me keep my daughter. She needs my letter of recommendation for the fellowship she's worked her whole life for. I need someone to stand beside me when everything's on the line. It was supposed to be simple. Until I start wanting her for real.
