Atticus Thorin was supposed to be giving Samantha a ride home, not wondering why the sharp-tongued nurse beside him made him think about redemption. But somewhere between her defiance, her freckles, and the way she refused to let him get away with being rude, the icy doctor’s control started to slip.
I was intrigued by this fiery-mouthed woman wrapped in freckles and flame. She stirred something within me, a hunger for redemption—mine and perhaps even hers.
~Dr. Atticus Thorin, Night Shift

Their story blends workplace romance, age gap tension, grumpy/sunshine banter, redemption, medical suspense, and a thrilling mafia twist that forces a man trained to save lives to decide how far he will go for the woman he loves.
