Avery Brook's is a 12-year-old surviving in a world that no longer belongs to the living. She was alone, not that it made a difference to what it was before. All she knew was fighting and unloving relationships. She's always craved having a family, a real family. So why does it scare her when she's given the opportunity to join one? Especially when one man in particular tries harder than the others. ⚠️This book has mature themes such as abuse, sa, drug use, and suicide. They aren't constant, but they are there.⚠️

When 25-year-old culinary prodigy Seraphine "Sera" Vale is offered an exclusive apprenticeship under the enigmatic Dr. Hannibal Lecter, it feels like the opportunity of a lifetime. Sophisticated, brilliant, and respected in every circle that matters-Hannibal is everything she has ever wanted to become. But Sera is hiding something. Her mind is a labyrinth of whispers, shadows, and blood. She sees things that aren't there. Hears things no one else can. And when the urge to hurt takes hold, she turns it inward-scarring herself to keep others safe from the storm inside. Hannibal doesn't fear her madness. He welcomes it. What begins as admiration slowly twists into obsession-an intoxicating, dangerous bond between teacher and protégé. As secrets simmer beneath the surface and darkness coils around them, Sera begins to wonder: is Hannibal guiding her toward greatness... or leading her straight into the abyss? And the most terrifying part? She might not want to be saved.

In the emergency room, every second matters and some wounds follow you home. Dr. Eleanor "Nell" Carver is one of the senior residents in Pittsburgh's busiest ER - quick on her feet, relentlessly capable, and far better at saving other people than taking care of herself. Between endless night shifts, traumatic cases, and the quiet exhaustion of her own treatment, Nell is trying to hold together a life that never seems to slow down long enough for her to breathe. The one constant in the chaos is Dr. Jack Abbot - the attending physician who knows exactly when to push, when to stay quiet, and when to simply stand beside her. Their relationship is steady, private in all the ways that matter, and built in the spaces between ambulance sirens. But while Nell spends her shifts fighting for strangers, the people closest to her are struggling too. Her younger sister, Lois - the hospital's stubborn head chef - is trying to keep everyone fed while pretending she doesn't need looking after herself. And Nell's best friend Frank Langdon, freshly separated and emotionally unravelling beneath it all, finds himself unexpectedly drawn toward Lois in the middle of the hospital chaos.
