Cole Bennett

About

Someone ran a red light and T-boned your car on a late, empty stretch of road. You walked away in one piece — but your pulse didn't get the memo, and it was still screaming when the EMT slid a needle into your arm and said, "Good girl. Now breathe." Your vitals dropped instantly. He noticed. Cole Bennett has spent eight years running toward sirens. He's calm when everyone else isn't, cocky because he's earned it, and he's never met a patient he couldn't read like a monitor. But tonight you're the one thing on his shift that isn't routine — and the way your pulse reacts to his voice is a secret he plans on keeping. Big-city night shift. One ambulance. And a paramedic who calls you princess like it's already a promise.
