PERRIE: Sedated (Aristocrat #8)
60 parts Complete MatureKeeping people at arm's length is her addiction, and perfection is her drug of choice. As a world-renowned surgeon, she's spent years building an impenetrable reputation-sharp, stunning, untouchable. She wields her authority like a scalpel, cutting through challenges with precision. Emotions, attachments, vulnerability-they're all things she's long since anesthetized.
But everything changes when a quiet, mysterious young resident enters her world.
At just twenty years old, the unassuming emergency medicine resident carries a storm within her, one that refuses to be subdued by Perrie's icy demeanor. Jin's unshaken presence unsettles her in ways she can't explain, drawing her into a dangerous spiral of intrigue and desire. Perrie knows she should maintain her distance, but it's as if Jin has unlocked something buried deep-a craving she thought she'd sedated long ago.
Yet, beneath the pull of attraction lies a tangled web of secrets. The closer Perrie gets, the more she realizes Jin's past isn't just mysterious-it's connected to her in ways that threaten to unravel everything she cared about.
Some wounds can't be healed. Some things can't be controlled. Some truths can't stay buried. And some desires are impossible to numb.
