The Blue Ledger: A Story of Ambition, Surgery, and Secret Desire (Hearts Under Glass Book 2)
About
Dr. Simone Thorne is a glacial force of nature--a surgical genius who has built a fortress around her heart to protect a painful past. In the sterile, glass-and-steel corridors of Metropolis General, she is the undisputed queen of the operating room. Until Kaia Rossi arrives.
Kaia is everything Simone is not: rebellious, charismatic, and dangerously unorthodox. A rural intern with a ‘Blue Ledger’ full of secrets and a habit of challenging the hospital’s elitist hierarchy, she’s a virus in Simone’s perfectly clean room. Simone is supposed to be her mentor, not her downfall. But as they are forced into close quarters, the cold professional distance between them begins to thaw into a scorching, undeniable heat.
From the private scrub rooms to the rainy streets of London, their forbidden connection violates every hospital regulation and threatens to dismantle both their careers. Simone has spent years hiding her trauma, but Kaia’s touch is a catalyst she can’t control. As the pressure of a malpractice suit and hospital politics closes in, they must decide: is the surgical precision of their lives worth more than the messy, beautiful desire that’s rewritten their futures?
Can a surgical tower built on secrets survive the truth of a heart that refuses to be silenced?
