Summary
Three weeks after ending a ten month situationship, Trinity Santos transfers to night shift hoping that new routines, new people, and a new shift will be enough to outrun one heartbreak.
Instead, she finds Jack Abbot loudly claiming her as one of his own, John Shen making coffee that should qualify as a controlled substance, Parker Ellis providing an endless running commentary, Crus being Crus, and Emery Walsh appearing often enough that "coincidence" starts losing all meaning.
As impossible traumas, 3am coffees and endless night shifts slowly become routine, strangers become family and nights begin to feel like home. For the first time in a long time, Trinity starts building a life she never thought she'd have.
But healing is rarely linear, and some ghosts don't stay buried just because you've changed shifts. When the past finally catches up with her, Trinity is forced to decide whether letting someone truly know her is worth the risk of losing them.
Sometimes the hardest part isn't surviving what happened to you. It's believing someone could know all of it and choose to stay anyway.
Emery Walsh has decided. She isn't going anywhere.
