Patient X
“He's the last kind of man she wants to fall for... but the only one she can't resist. Lysander has spent her life building walls around her heart. As a dedicated young nurse, she has no time for heartbreak-not again. But when Nolan Castille, a reckless billionaire with a smoldering smile and a troubled past, becomes a frequent visitor at the hospital, their worlds collide. He's infuriating. He's arrogant. He's everything she should avoid. But behind his charm lies something deeper-something broken. And when she glimpses the pain he hides, staying away becomes impossible. Lysander knows she's playing with fire. Nolan isn't the type to commit, and she isn't the type to settle for less. But the more she tries to resist, the more fate keeps pushing them together. Will she be the one to heal him... or just another scar on his soul?”
