Lydia Keene built Havenbridge Women's Clinic from a donated lease, four volunteer nurses, and eleven years of grant applications.

Eight days before the grant review that keeps the clinic alive, Lydia discovers board minutes for a meeting that never happened, a meeting where she supposedly "expressed relief" at her own removal, on a night she can prove she spent giving flu shots forty feet away.
Behind the forged minutes waits an ethics complaint, a carefully manufactured record of concern, and a consulting firm quietly billing her clinic while its polished principal measures Lydia's office for new furniture.
Ronan is counting on the one thing he knows best about his wife: she'd swallow anything to keep her clinic doors open.
He's right about her devotion.
He's wrong about what it's for.
Because Lydia has kept every notice, every log, every record for eleven years and the grant committee arriving Friday is contractually required to check the records her husband forged.
If it isn't charted, it didn't happen.
It's all charted.
A standalone closed-door revenge romance featuring forged board minutes, an alarm log that can't be cross-examined, a devastating grant review, and a slow-burn second chance with the compliance attorney who has quietly loved her for eleven years and never once crossed the line.
