Stay for the rewards. *** This book may NOT be reproduced, reposted, copied, or translated in any way unless you receive permission directly from the author. Camille Rousseau is used to the pressure. As the daughter of a legendary figure skater, she's spent her entire life striving to be the best-pushing herself harder, faster, and farther. But when she's forced to share the ice with Aurora Bennett, Camille's world is turned upside down. Aurora doesn't just glide on the ice; she owns it. Confident, competitive, and effortlessly talented, Aurora is everything Camille hates-everything Camille fears she'll never be. The two are rivals, both driven by the weight of family expectations and their burning need to be the top athlete. But when fate and the rink force them into close quarters, the animosity between them begins to shift into something neither of them can control. Trapped together, their forced proximity ignites a firestorm of tension. Camille can't decide if she wants to throttle Aurora or kiss her. Aurora's confidence rattles Camille's composure, and every touch on the ice sends sparks flying. But as they push each other to new limits, they find that their rivalry is just the beginning of something much deeper, more complicated-and far more dangerous to their hearts.

    Genre: | Medical Drama| Slow Burn | Workplace Romance| Marriage of convenience | contract marriage |Divorce| Setting: Harmony & Care Hospitals. Seattle,USA. --- Description: The hospital called him a genius. Patients called him a miracle. But behind the crisp scrubs, cold eyes, and perfect surgical record, Neil Morris was a man carrying secrets heavy enough to ruin lives. And then there was Eva Walter - the new resident with sunshine in her smile, chaos in her hands, and a habit of crashing straight through the walls Neil spent years building around himself. Being under Neil's strict supervision is tough, but what starts as tension slowly melts into something unexpected. Behind the sharp scalpel and sharper tongue, Eva glimpses a man carrying emotions. Because Neil and Eva were never meant to get close. Not with the tension between them. Not with the secrets hiding inside the Morris family. And definitely not with a marriage that was never supposed to become real. She's chaos. He's calm. She talks too much. He barely speaks. She's falling. And he doesn't even know what falling feels like-until her. Between late-night surgeries, rain-soaked confrontations, accidental touches in crowded"You're not what I expected, Dr. Morris," she said quietly, his gaze unreadable. "Neither are you, Dr. Eva," he whispered. "But I think I like the version that smiles... even if it's rare." he replied, taking a step closer. "Because the next thing I tell might change everything." So when he looks her dead in the eye and says, "I need a favor from you, Dr. Eva. Will you marry me? But on one condition..." Eva's world flips the line between hatred and love begins to disappear. But love is the least of their problems. Eva: Why do you always look angry at me? Neil: Because every time you appear, something goes wrong. Eva: That sounds like a you problem to me, Dr. Morris.

    Uzair Baloch had always been the kind of man the world adjusted itself around, effortless in his charm, unwavering in his certainty, carrying the dangerous confidence of someone who had never truly been refused anything he desired. Doors opened. People stayed. And love, when it came, seemed inevitable. Ten years ago, there stood a girl who loved him without spectacle and without condition, a love so steady it did not need to be announced to be known. She understood the spaces between his words, the arrogance he mistook for strength, the softness he pretended not to possess. She chose him wholly, quietly, in ways that asked for nothing but sincerity in return. He mistook that devotion for permanence. He chose youth over responsibility, freedom over depth, the ease of being adored over the discipline of loving back. He convinced himself that something so constant could never truly leave, that a heart so certain would wait until he was ready. Time, however, does not negotiate with arrogance. And now she stands before him again, ten years later, not the girl who once lingered in his silences, but a woman composed of her own making, poised and self-contained, her life rebuilt without the need for his orbit. There is no accusation in her gaze, no lingering plea. Only distance. Only dignity. It unsettled him more than anger ever could. Because for the first time, Uzair Baloch feels the ground beneath him shift, feels the slow and devastating realization that what he once dismissed so casually had been the only thing that ever truly anchored him.
