The Surgeon’s Scar: A Stranger To Lovers, Doctor/Patient Romance

Courtside collapse. National television. That's how I end up in Dr. Blake Morrison's ER—and under the care of the most brilliant, damaged surgeon in Los Angeles.

I'm Tessa Grant, point guard for the LA Sparks. They call me "The Architect" for my flawless game strategy. But my body's betraying me with symptoms no doctor believes are real. Career over. Dreams shattered.

Until him.

Dr. Blake Morrison hasn't operated in three years—not since he lost a patient on his table. But with each test, each sleepless night poring over my charts, I watch the controlled surgeon crack open. Revealing something darker. Obsessive. Possessive.

"These symptoms aren't random, Tessa," he growls, fingers white-knuckled on my charts. "Someone's poisoning you. And when I find them, they'll learn exactly what a surgeon can do with a scalpel."

His touch during examinations sets my monitors screaming. What's building between us is more dangerous than any diagnosis. More forbidden than any treatment plan.

But as my mystery illness threatens everything I've built, will the surgeon haunted by failure risk his hands—and his heart—to save the only woman who's ever made him want to live again?

THE SURGEON'S SCAR is a high-stakes medical romance featuring a morally gray billionaire doctor who'll burn the world down to save her.
