A novel inspired by the Choices app - Open Heart.
The story is not a retelling of the first book but it stays true to all the major events that occurred in it. They are sporadically mentioned (Pixelberry owns all rights to those aspects) to give the story its premise but the plot is an original whilst staying true to the characters' voices and my perception of their point of view. 

Hence, I claimed rights to the creative content in this novel - storyline, dialogues, etc . Copying it verbatim or paraphrasing it are considered as plagiarism and an infringement of copyright. 

The story is told from two points of view-the male and female protagonist.

~Blurb~ 

Awarded the junior fellowship on the Diagnostics Department, Elena and Ethan have to navigate the challenges that come with working closely together with Ethan as her direct supervisor. Elena, though thrilled with the opportunity, felt ambivalent about the position for it would rock the shaky foundation of her and Ethan's complicated relationship which hinted at a budding romance during her first year of residency. 

Ethan Ramsey, a well-renowned doctor whose scrupulous life principles have always dictated his actions, found himself at the edge of risking everything for a junior resident who's basically turned his life upside down. 

At the wake of the aftermath of Elena's "crime" against Panacea, the most influential pharmaceutical company in the northeast, Elena finds herself in a battle for her own life as well as those close to her. Will the bond between Ethan and Elena intensify or burn in flames in the face of this new threat? Will they keep fighting the inevitable or give in to their hearts' desire?

Behind Closed Doors by Brooklyngirl1026
24 parts Complete Mature
I never thought my life would be like this; trapped in a dark room and scared for my life. A blindfold was wrapped around my head, covering my eyes, making me completely blind and on high alert. My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper. A voice boomed closely to me, "Well, if I told you that, this wouldn't be any fun." **************** Skylar James, a 24 year old girl, is kidnapped by a very well known gang who has a vendetta against her family. In an attempt to find light in her situation, she makes friends with one of the members. Logan Grant was forced into the gang at the young age of 16. He was abused until he became emotionless and ruthless, so that one day, he could rule the gang. Everything was going smoothly until Skylar is brought in. With a blindfold wrapped around her head, he instantly feels bad for her, though he cannot show it. Afraid of getting caught, he shows no emotion while others are around. Though, behind closed doors is a whole other story.
