Summary
Abby Langdon has a list for her ex-husband’s future wife: smart, kind, good with kids, unbothered by 14-hour shifts. Mel King checks every box — so Abby does what any good ex-wife would do and sets up a blind date.
She just didn’t check whether they’d already met.

Summary
Langdon starts thinking of Mel like the sun, not only because she’s bright, but because everything else feels colder without her. The hospital is still the hospital. Loud and relentless, but when she’s there, the night becomes something he can get through. Somewhere along the way, she turns into the only person he actually wants to see.
OR Langdon comes back after his ten month hiatus and immediately gets put on night shift with Mel because of a shortage AND Mel gets boba.

There’s just one problem.
Frank already has a life he can’t afford to lose.
{or}
Mel and Frank are nerds together.

Summary
"Didn’t make any friends during orientation?”
She laughed- then stopped abruptly because that was actually not a joke. “Um…no. I don’t make friends easily.”
She waited for him to look at her with pity, or offer false reassurances. He looked mildly contemplative instead. “I think most people’s ‘friends’ are actually just acquaintances, anyway.”
Mel blinked. “You think so?”
“It’s important to remember that most people are bullshitting you like…at least sixty percent of the time.”
Mel wasn’t sure if this extended to him. If it did, would he tell her? Probably not.

Summary
“I can just pretend someone would actually step up," Mel admits, the honesty slipping out before she can stop it. "That someone would finally be the one to take care of me.”
Frank doesn't hesitate. He leans in until they’re temple-to-temple, blocking out the sun and the noise of the Faire alike.
“I could,” he whispers. “And I think I’d be damn good at it, too.”
Where Mel invites Frank to a ren faire, gets roped into working the naughty bartender booth, and he shows her just how much he likes her costume.
