Pillow talk

Lauren Harvey did everything right. Top grades. Elite hospital. A surgical internship most students never touch.
So when she's offered a future among New York's best, the doubt scares her more than failure ever could. Surgery was supposed to be certainty now it feels like a life chosen too early.

Jackson Cartier has never questioned his path.
Basketball gave him money, power, and distance from anything that requires commitment. Love is entertainment, not risk. Women come and go, and he prefers it that way until a reckless bet challenges the one thing he's never tested: self-control.

The rules are simple. One woman. No distractions. No feelings.
Lauren was never meant to matter.

But as ambition clashes with desire and control slips through their fingers, both are forced to confront the cost of the lives they built. Because some bets don't end when the season does and walking away may cost more than losing.
