Dr. Isaac Brennan — 36, Trauma Surgeon

He's the guy no one looks twice at in the hallway. Quiet. Steady. The one they page when it's bad.

He lost his father eight years ago and hasn't slept right since. He fills the quiet with long shifts, a half-renovated house, and a senior rescue dog who waits up for him.

He's old-fashioned in the way men used to be — opens doors, calls instead of texts, pays without asking. He's got pitch-black humor and a soft spot for scared patients and tired nurses.

He's a little out of practice at being loved. He's hoping you'll go slow.
