Breaking Point - Paperback

She's Harvard-educated, a senator's daughter, and the best damn ER physician no one takes seriously.

Dr. Delaney Ward didn't claw her way through medical school to be her father's campaign prop or anyone's idea of what a doctor should be. Her "ice queen" reputation? Armor, built one dismissive colleague at a time. She doesn't need anyone to save her, validate her, or see past her walls. Especially not Dr. Cameron Lee, whose easy swagger and flirtatious charm remind her of every man who's ever underestimated her.

But Cameron's confidence hides fractures of his own: a patient who died because of a call he made, a fear of failure that drives every decision. And Delaney's armor hides a woman who secretly paints watercolors and devours romance novels, desperate for the kind of love she's convinced herself she doesn't deserve.

Then the worst day of their careers arrives.

When a mass casualty incident floods Metro General with impossible choices, the walls they've built become impossible to maintain. Delaney breaks in ways she never expected. Cameron discovers strength he didn't know he had. And somewhere between the patients they save and the ones they lose, they stop being careful colleagues... and become each other's lifeline.

But the crisis is only the beginning. They've seen each other shatter. Now they have to decide if the pieces fit together-or if some breaks can't be mended.
