Code Blue Hearts

By Ava Hawthorne

She saves lives on the mountain. He saves them in the OR. Together, they might save each other.
Dr. Knox Sullivan is a brilliant trauma surgeon haunted by Afghanistan. He manages his PTSD through dangerous solo climbing and meaningless hookups.

EMT Sia Harris carries the weight of never being enough. The daughter who chose emergency medicine over medical school, forever disappointing her sacrificing parents.

Their legendary hospital arguments have betting pools on when they'll either destroy each other's careers or combust. Knox doesn't trust anyone's medical judgment. Sia refuses to back down from his arrogance.

When Ridge Point's climbing season brings complex mountain rescues, they're forced together at remote accident sites. She needs his surgical expertise. He needs her climbing knowledge. Neither wants to need the other at all.

Heated arguments in supply closets become desperate kisses. Professional enemies become something infinitely more dangerous when Knox discovers Sia's instincts save lives and she sees the broken soldier beneath his demanding exterior.

But with his control issues and her imposter syndrome threatening everything, can two people who've made careers of life-or-death decisions learn to trust each other with their hearts?

Code Blue Hearts is a steamy dual POV contemporary romance. Second in the Ridge Point Heroes series but can be read as a standalone. Features a trauma surgeon with PTSD and the EMT who refuses to back down.
