Elena Carter never believed in anything she couldn’t see, measure, or prove. As a nursing intern, she’s used to logic, science… and control.Until she’s posted to Blackridge a quiet town with a clinic that feels more like a prison of silence than a place of healing.When a patient mysteriously disappears only to return fully recovered the next morning Elena can’t explain it. And neither can anyone else.Everyone whispers his name… Adrian Blackwood, the reclusive man who shouldn’t exist, who shouldn’t heal, who shouldn’t draw her in.But some rules are made to be broken.Some secrets are meant to be discovered.And some forbidden attractions… are impossible to resist.Elena is about to learn that in Blackridge, science has its limits… and so does her heart.
