The Heart We Guard by S. Cole

Greer

The night I was fired as a surgeon, a dying man told me a secret I wasn’t supposed to hear.

Now someone wants me quiet—and a biker bleeding out in the parking lot might be my only escape.

I didn’t plan to take him home and remove his bullets on my dining table.

Yet, for seven days, he’s the calm in my chaos.

We break rules. Cross lines.

Then he’s gone.

But five weeks later, I find him at the clubhouse—and hand him a note with two words that change everything.

Butcher

I should’ve bled out.

Instead, I ended up in the care of a woman with haunted eyes and hands that didn’t shake—even when mine did.

But Dr. Greer Hansen is too soft for a man like me. Too bright. Too good.

So I leave while she sleeps.

Five weeks later, she finds me with news that hits harder than any bullet ever could.

And the only way to keep her breathing… is to drag her into my world.

Even if she hates me for it.

Even if it costs me everything.

She walked into my world by accident, and now I’ll rip it apart to keep what’s mine safe.
