ROSA: I’m a nurse. I should not be attracted to a patient.
Not even if he’s got chiseled cheeks, eyes like ice and a jaw that could compact steel. Not even if his body’s rippling, tall and powerful.
And especially not this patient – because he walked into the ER with a bullet in his leg.
God, why do I love rough men? All I’ve gotten from them is thunder and heartache.
At least this guy’s a soldier: strong, silent and protective. One look and you know he’s someone you can trust.
Something’s keeping him away though. Is it the truth about his injury?
And what will it cost me to find out?
CALIX: I’m starting to forget the truth altogether.
It’s because of that nurse. The one with the tight little body, the tender touch and that sexy voice she’s never afraid to unleash. The girl with skin so soft and shimmering that I don't even notice its color.
I’m already lying to my superiors to protect my family from the truth of my injury. If I wanted to be with this girl, I’d have to start lying to my family, too.
See, my father’s the leader of the biggest white nationalist group in Atlanta.
And even after all my time away overseas, I’m still his second in command.
Right?
