Dr. Nikolai Federov has two schedules, two phones, and one problem: the man everyone calls the pakhan is the same man the trauma center calls at 2 a.m.
He's been holding the two lives apart for nine years. Then his uncle is shot, his name is called, and the family he barely tolerates puts him in a chair he never asked to sit in.
Dr. Priya Raman has an inquiry into a colleague, a brother in federal custody, and absolutely no patience for men with secrets. She's the first person to ask Nikolai what he actually wants.
He doesn't answer. He doesn't have an answer. He has a hospital, a family, and a shift at seven.
A Russian mafia doctor romance about the only man in the Bratva who would rather be in an operating room.
