MED SERIES BOOK 1 Maeven Mijares is one of the youngest, most promising cardiologists at St. Grace General Hospital, focused on saving lives and leaving romance out of the equation. But her resolve falters when she's paired with Xavier Salvaterra - a brilliant, emotionally distant surgeon whose cold logic clashes with her compassionate approach. As they face life-or-death emergencies, their constant friction gives way to an undeniable pull. Behind Xavier's detached facade is a past he refuses to confront, while Maeven's unwavering heart threatens to break through his walls. In a world where every second counts, they must decide if love is worth the risk - or if some hearts are safer kept guarded.
