Breath Between Heartbeats, A

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. A Breath Between Heartbeats is an emotional, slow-burn contemporary medical romance about healing, second chances, and learning to trust again when love feels like the greatest risk of all. After a devastating betrayal by the two people she loved most, Elizabeth leaves everything behind and starts over in New York City. Brilliant, disciplined, and fiercely controlled, she becomes the head of the pediatric wing at one of the country's top hospitals. Elizabeth believes emotions are dangerous—and perfection is the only shield against pain. But beneath her calm exterior, anxiety and unresolved wounds threaten to break through. One unexpected night changes everything. A chance encounter with a charming yet enigmatic stranger awakens something Elizabeth thought she had buried forever: hope. For the first time in years, New York doesn't feel so lonely. But a misunderstanding the very next day may cost her the one connection she wasn't prepared to lose. Sawyer knows what it means to fail. Fresh out of a broken marriage and weighed down by family conflicts, he is the respected chief of cardiology at a renowned hospital—successful on paper, empty at heart. He's spent so long surviving that he's forgotten how to live. Meeting Elizabeth feels like a second chance he never believed he deserved… even when she doubts his honesty. As their lives intertwine inside hospital corridors filled with life-and-death decisions, Elizabeth and Sawyer must face their fears, their pasts, and the walls they've built to survive. Together, they discover that love isn't about perfection—it's about courage, vulnerability, and choosing each other even when everything feels uncertain.
