“You have to survive a whole day with out me. No communication, no nothing. If you pass, I’ll love you for ever,” he looked kind of serious but I could tell there was some amusement there.

Jack is Alex's world; and vice versa. Alex is pretty sure Jack is the one and only person for him, and Jack wouldn't hesitate to agree. But when Jack gets sick, how will he even begin to contemplate telling Alex?

Alex tours the world with his best friends in an amazing band. He has such a good life that it's easy to forgot the little things. But when Jack and Alex share an intense, out of the normal kiss, it all comes back to him and it's not going to be pretty for anyone.

I was once normal, like the rest of them. It hadn't always been this way. Before I lived in a world of material and selfish values, smiling while everyone lied to my face. If I hadn’t have had experience of this godforsaken building, I wouldn’t have been prepared for what I was about to see when I entered my favourite patient’s bedroom. He was my first. He was Jack Barakat. The one who I’d watched grow, smile and laugh. The one that I’d helped fall in love. Being powerless is something you can’t afford to be when you’re a doctor, especially when you’re working for the most controversial one in history. Three Hearts Hospital is not normal. It is a prison for ill orphans. Rhinae has just begun working there after leaving university and soon discovers that nothing is what it seems. She may be a conventional doctor, but the patients she is dealing with are far from ordinary. Jack, Alex, Rian and Zack are the four of them.
