They say the human heart beats about 37 million times a year. But for those serving at Station 118, it feels like reaching that number in a single shift. For Sofia Garcia, the wail of sirens has always been the soundtrack of her life, but now it is her reality. As a crisis counselor, she often stands at the edge of the police tape, holding her breath as she watches her cousin Eddie rappel into one abyss after another. In the world of the Diazes, family means everything: loyalty, unconditional protection, and the secrets they keep from one another. Eddie wants to protect her because he knows how this job can slowly break a soul-but he didn't count on his best friend. No one had prepared Sofia for Evan Buckley. While she works at the scene to manage the chaos of emotions and keep families from collapsing, Buck's eyes find hers more often than protocol dictates. In Sofia, he doesn't just see the professional counselor or Eddie's cousin; he sees someone who looks behind his facade without him having to say a single word. In a city that never sleeps, the line between professionalism and desire becomes dangerously thin. Sofia is an expert on what happens when the heart falters-yet her knowledge cannot protect her from the freefall Buck triggers within her. There is no emergency call for love, and of all people, the man who saves everyone seems to be the only one who isn't allowed to catch her.

Summer has never had a home. At nineteen years old, she's spent her entire life surviving-living on bread and water, learning that affection hurts, and believing that needing people is dangerous. When she's abandoned with nowhere to go, the last person she expects to help her is Dean Di Laurentis. What starts as a temporary arrangement quickly becomes something neither of them expected. Between late-night panic attacks, first hugs, comfort items, and a found family she doesn't quite know what to do with, Summer slowly learns what safety feels like for the first time in her life. As she begins to regress into a younger headspace she never knew existed, Dean and the Off Campus boys find themselves diving headfirst into research, panic-buying stuffies, blankets, deco pacifiers, and enough comfort items to fill an entire room. But healing isn't easy when you've never been loved before. With Garrett, Logan, Tucker, and one very overprotective Dean at her side, Summer discovers that maybe home isn't a place at all. Maybe it's the people who refuse to let you face the world alone. A soft, found-family caregiver story set in the Off Campus universe featuring age regression, comfort, healing, protective hockey boys, cool-aunt Allie energy, jealous rivals, and enough stuffed animals to start a small army.
