Paging the Don: A Safehouse Medical Romantic Suspense

By Maxella Qut's

He commands a city. She commands an OR. One midnight page makes them a team-and a target.

At 1:57 a.m., pediatric cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Sasha Ortiz is scrubbed in when the consent name flashes: Nico LaRosa. His little girl's valve is failing. Sasha gives the hard truth; he signs without hesitation. The surgery holds. The child lives.

Then the fallout begins-an impostor in scrubs, a bouquet wired with a pinhole camera, "tick, tock" notes-and hospital politics eager to erase the woman who made the call. Nico protects his world by force of will; protecting the surgeon who saved his daughter becomes personal. He offers coordination, not control-security, a safehouse, and a door he promises to leave unlocked.

With a licensing fight looming and the threats getting smarter, Sasha and Nico choose outcomes over optics and paper over muscle, building a case before the clock runs out. The closer they work, the steadier their pulse together-something neither of them planned, and both of them might risk everything to keep.
