Every shift she saves lives. Every night she fights the ones she couldn't.
Paramedic Emery Scott knows the cost of wearing the uniform. Long nights, heavy calls, and the silence that follows when the sirens stop. She's seen too much, lost too many-and each call leaves a mark. A scar no one else can see.
At home, her marriage is on life support. Her husband barely looks at her. She barely remembers who she was before the job consumed her. The only thing she feels anymore is the weight of the box under her bed-a collection of tokens from every rescue and every failure. Ghosts, all of them.
Each chapter of her life is written in blood and breath, loss and grit. But when the demons she carries begin to follow her into the daylight, Emery must face a question no paramedic wants to ask:
What if she can't save herself?
The Shift That Never Ends is a hauntingly raw portrait of trauma, love unraveling, and the hidden wounds carried by our first responders. A story that cuts deep, lingers long, and refuses to be forgotten.

Harwal, book 3
I'm the crew's problem solver-the one they send on the hardest jobs. To them, I'm fearless, strong, unshakable. But the truth? I'm a coward, hiding secrets I pray no one ever uncovers. Everyone knows I'm terrified of the Zohra, the horned aliens that send chills down my spine. Yet, in a reckless moment, I agree to stay with the crew-near them. But my personal fears don't matter when a bigger threat emerges, one that could destroy everything. The mission takes us to my hometown, to a hidden lab filled with memories I swore I'd never face. And worse? I'm stuck infiltrating it with Harwal-a Zohra who reminds me of the monster that's haunted me for years. Surviving the mission is one thing. Surviving him-and the way he makes me feel-is another.Lengkap
Saving the Dead
Veteran paramedic, Leonardo Ramirez, is one of the few of his contemporaries to work in the field before and after the worldwide event known as the outbreak. In many ways, life on the ambulance hasn't changed that much in the decade since humanity reclaimed their society. Violence is rampant, the despondent are still ignored, and the forgotten are shunned. You would think people would treat each other better, knowing that anyone who dies rises again as a ravenous zombie. Still, they can always call '911' for help. Ramirez, with his EMT partner Sam Drifts, an unapologetic womanizer and adrenaline junkie, must indoctrinate naïve paramedic student Justin on his first night on the street. Call after call, the crew encounters everything from frequent-flyer drunks, to crazy cat ladies, an escalating gang war, and the walking (and sometimes sprinting) dead. When death becomes this dangerous, saving lives has never been more crucial. Still, one must ask, "How do you perform CPR on a Zombie?"Lengkap
The Quiet Between Heartbeats
Noah Night is seventeen, silent, and surviving. Haunted by a past she refuses to speak of, she moves through life like a ghost-unseen, unheard, and untouched. Her only safe place is her mum's arms, and even that sometimes feels too fragile to hold her broken pieces. Then Lacie Winter crashes into her world-fierce, red-haired, and reckless with kindness. She's the first person to look Noah in the eyes and see more than a scarred shell. But letting someone in means risking everything... and Noah isn't sure she can take that leap. As their worlds tangle, Noah must decide if she's ready to face the past she's buried and open herself to the one thing she's always feared-hope. But healing isn't easy. Love isn't a fix. And sometimes, survival feels like the hardest thing in the world. Will Noah find her voice in a world that taught her to stay silent, or will her past finally drown her for good? --- ⚠️ Trigger Warnings: This story contains sensitive content including: • Childhood trauma & abuse • Panic attacks & PTSD • Mentions of sexual assault (non graphic) • Anxiety & depression • Emotional manipulation • Recovery/healing themes Reader discretion is advised.
