Irish lad Alex Riley swore he was straight. Full stop.
But that was before he transferred to the surgical ward of St. Augustine’s Hospital and before he met his Senior Dorian Webb.
Dorian is bold, gorgeous and Unapologetically gay.
He flirts like it’s breathing and makes Alex’s pulse skip in all the wrong ways... or maybe… the right ones...
What starts as harmless teasing in break rooms and back hallways soon spirals into something hotter, heavier. A glance held too long, a brush of fingers, a game of "who’ll break first".
Alex reminds co-workers that he doesn’t want a relationship, especially not with a cocky colleague who makes him question everything.
But Dorian isn’t just playing.
And under the bright lights of the surgical ward, secrets begin to bleed through scrubs, smiles and carefully kept lies.
Because some desires can’t be stitched shut.
