When the trauma surgeon saves his first love's life, he discovers some wounds never heal—and some loves never die.

Dr. Ethan Cross has spent ten years trying to forget Marco Santini. Ten years since the man he loved vanished without explanation, leaving nothing but a cryptic text message and a shattered heart. Ethan threw himself into medicine, building a career saving lives in New York's busiest ER.

Then Marco is wheeled into his trauma bay—unconscious, bleeding out from a gunshot wound, and even more dangerous than Ethan remembered.

A standalone MM mafia romance featuring second-chance love, morally complex characters, high-stakes danger, and a hard-won HEA. Content warnings for violence, trauma, and mature themes.
