Code Black

How far would you go to save your family when the cure is a crime?

Twenty-six-year-old Harper is one step away from achieving her lifelong dream: becoming a surgeon. But when unforeseen circumstances threaten to drown her family in debt, desperation sets in. Pushed to the brink, she leaves herself no other option than to turn to illegal moonlighting-a forbidden gamble that could destroy her career before it even begins.

Then Callum uncovers her secret. Her protective colleague and rival-turned-friend refuses to watch her ruin her life. To keep her from getting caught, he offers her a dangerous shortcut that pays far better: becoming the off-the-books medic for the city's illegal underground cage fighters.

The rules are simple: stitch them up and keep your mouth shut. But then Knox walks into her life.

Knox is twenty-seven, fights like he's begging for an end, and doesn't know how to stay out of trouble. He hates Harper's presence, treating her like a virus in his system and constantly warning her that the dark will consume her. Yet, as Harper pieces him back together night after night-with his blood on her hands and her breath on his skin-the lines begin to blur. He told her this world would swallow her whole-he just forgot to warn her about himself.

Harper finds herself torn between the protective rival risking his heart to save her, and the self-destructive fighter who hates that she's bringing him back to life.
