Paramedic Sunny Clark is built to withstand chaos- but one call fractures the control she’s depended on to survive. As sleep disappears and violent memories bleed into the present, the distance between who she is and who she pretends to be begins to collapse. Holding it together becomes a daily act of endurance, and Sunny doesn’t know how much longer she can hold on.

The last person she expects to witness her unraveling is her new neighbor, Will Harald-a man she never intended to let close. Forced to confront the truth she’s spent years outrunning, Sunny learns that fake fortitude isn’t heroic, healing isn’t always gentle, and sometimes staying afloat requires letting someone see the damage.
