Five years ago, Alicia's life was destroyed by a lie. Framed for a murder she never committed, she became the target of her own blood. Twisted by her parents' lies, her sister Valerie came to believe that Alicia had killed their grandparents out of a hunger for power, convincing Valerie that killing her own sister was necessary. Betrayed and hunted, Alicia disappeared into the shadows, spending years on the run, surviving alone in a world that wanted her dead. Just when exhaustion and fate finally caught up to her, salvation came from an unexpected place. Dante Valentino, a cold-hearted Mafia leader whose name alone commands silence and respect. Taking Alicia under his protection changes everything-for her, and for the criminal empire that soon realizes the past never stays buried.

Gravely Yours - Jack Abbot | The Pitt
Camryn Wells wasn't trying to rebuild her life so much as outrun the version of it that nearly destroyed her. After a year and a half off the grid, nursing wounds no one could see and some that still ached like hell, she's back in Pittsburgh. Sort of. She's here for Gwen, the woman who adopted her, who's now fading into early-onset dementia. She's on night shift, working trauma at PTMC, trying to remember the nurse she used to be-and to convince her small army of overprotective siblings that she's fine now. That she's not the broken girl they saw in that hospital bed in Boston. Camryn is sunshine incarnate: bright-eyed, too kind, stubbornly hopeful, and despite everything, still believes in second chances. What she didn't plan on? Her new next-door neighbor just happens to be the gruff, quiet, unflinchingly calm ED attending who runs her shift with surgical precision... and dry quips that cut sharper than a scalpel. Dr. Jack Abbot doesn't do distractions. Not from interns. Not from administration. And definitely not from the impossibly cheerful nurse who crash-landed into his backyard and, somehow, into his life. Guarded, fiercely competent, and more at ease in chaos than comfort, Jack prefers solitude-until Camryn. With her pastel mugs, man-hating cat, and maddening habit of calling him out with a smile, she worms her way into every corner of his neatly boxed-off world. She's not what he expected. And he's exactly what she wasn't ready for. But on the night shift, where everything broken comes through the door eventually, maybe they'll both learn healing doesn't always look like what you thought.
