Brian

Sometimes the safest place to fall… is the last place you ever planned to land.

A burned-out trauma surgeon.

 A reclusive volunteer firefighter.

 A cabin too small to hide the truth—or the chemistry between them.

Dr. Tessa Callahan is done. Years in the ER have left her exhausted, haunted, and desperate for a reset. Copper Moon promises quiet, space to breathe, and a chance to reclaim the pieces of herself she almost lost. But a rental mix-up dumps her in a remote cabin already occupied by a gruff, silent stranger… and peace becomes impossible.

Brian Knight walked away from emergency response with scars no one sees. Living alone in the woods suits him—no questions, no chaos, no attachments. Until a sharp-tongued, city-smart doctor shows up on his doorstep and wedges herself straight into the cracks he thought he’d sealed shut.

Forced into close quarters, Tessa and Brian clash, bend, and slowly unravel each other’s walls. But when the past resurfaces and a life hangs in the balance, their fragile connection is tested in the fiercest way possible.

To save someone else…

 They may have to save themselves first.

 And risk everything for the love they never expected to find.
