My Ex's Father's Resident

Lucia Avenel doesn’t have time for men who doubt her anymore. After Bram Hawthorne breaks up with her, dismissing her intuition as overreaction, she decides to do the one thing she’s always been better at than loving the wrong person:

work until she becomes impossible to ignore.

Her new goal is simple: survive her surgical residency at the prestigious Whitlock Memorial and prove that no one has the right to call her unstable just because she sees patterns before others do.

The problem is the man who takes command of her routine.

Dr. Cael Hawthorne is ruthless, brilliant, cold enough to terrify entire cohorts of residents... and dangerously impossible to ignore. He’s also Bram’s father—her ex-boyfriend—and should be the last person in the world to touch Lucia as if he truly sees her.

But one forbidden night changes everything.

When Lucia discovers she’s pregnant, the personal scandal is just the surface of something much darker.

A fetal marker called H-7, a forged signature on a medical chart, an old hidden research study, and a recording from a dead physician reveal that Whitlock Memorial isn’t just trying to destroy her career.

The hospital has experimented on other women’s bodies before.

And Lucia may be the living key to exposing everyone involved.

Between forbidden desire, family secrets, unexpected motherhood, and a medical conspiracy built on false consents, Lucia and Cael will have to decide if what exists between them is just guilt, attraction, and danger...

or if it’s the kind of love that learns to stand beside without silencing the other.

Because at Whitlock, every rational woman has been called unstable.

And Lucia Avenel is about to prove she was never the problem.

A hot, intense, and emotional medical romance with institutional suspense, age gap, unexpected pregnancy, boss and resident, ex’s father, redemption, family secrets, forbidden chemistry, and a happy ending.
