She saves everyone. He wants to save her.
Dr. Emma Brown has spent nine years running on empty. As a trauma surgeon in a busy city ER, she gives everything to her patients—and nothing to herself. Protein bars that taste like cardboard. Coffee that tastes like regret. And a secret supply closet where she cries alone, because omegas aren't supposed to need anyone.
Henry Davis has been watching her. The security lead, a former Army medic with steady hands and a quieter presence, he's seen the cracks in her armor. He's seen her freeze in the trauma bay. He's seen her hide. And he can't look away.
When he finds her in the supply closet for the second time, he doesn't ask questions. He just sits on the floor across from her, waits, and leaves a protein bar behind.
It's the beginning of something neither of them expected.
Late-night vending machine sandwiches. Coffee left on desks. Notes folded into small squares. A rooftop at sunrise. A nest built from blankets and trust. And a man who refuses to stop showing up—even when she pushes him away.
Because Emma has forgotten what it feels like to be taken care of. And Henry has spent his whole life learning how.
But when a prestigious fellowship threatens to pull her across the country, Emma must decide: the career she's been building for nine years, or the alpha who taught her that needing someone isn't weakness.
A cozy, smutty omegaverse romance about burnout and healing, protein bars and coffee, and the quiet power of letting someone catch you.
