Sequel to my first fic, What Now?

When Will Halstead started his job as attending emergency physician at Gaffney Chicago Medical Center, the last person he expected to run into was the one that got away. It could be a coincidence, but it feels almost like fate. Ethan Choi is a tough but caring physician. Will he ever be able to admit his true feelings to an unlikely love? Connor Rhodes and Ava Bekker have always clashed, both in and out of the OR. However, something is changing between them. How will they handle it, knowing that it will heavily affect them professionally and personally? This story follows (mainly) these six characters as they work together to save people's lives while also trying to find a balance with their personal lives.

When Everly Reed collides with the cynical and devilishly handsome Mason Valdez, she knows trouble is ahead, but she never could have guessed how much she would be drawn to the storm. ***** Nineteen-year-old Ever Reed likes when things make sense. Which is probably why she excels at math, enough to secure her a spot at an Ivy League school out of state. Sheltered by her mother and older brother Asher for most of her life, Ever hasn't experienced much of the world, but she knows New York will be an adventure. Enter Mason Valdez: cynical, arrogant, and undeniably attractive-exactly what Ever doesn't need. But as their paths keep crossing, Ever finds herself intrigued by Mason, and eager to know the boy behind the bitter mask. As secrets, scars, and painful pasts rise to the surface, Ever knows one thing for sure: they can only make it through if they face their storms together.
