It had been a harrowing couple of years for Alexis and she felt like she was cursed. Every patient she touched died and it was only her first week under a new boss. Not to mention that her love life was nonexistent and she rarely slept in her own bed. She was hoping that would change....when she met Mira, there was a glimmer of hope that it would. Coming up through the foster care system Mira didn't have much to look forward to. Nothing much but Justin her best friend and the success they both wanted. Now as resident surgeons they were well on their way and besides being slaves to their superiors they enjoyed their jobs. Only problem was she had a thing for the gorgeous to do Alexis Cruz, the same doctor who did not even seem to notice she existed. When she did make her existence known, Alexis had bolted for the hills. When Justin is almost killed in a car accident, and he lands on Alexis' surgical table Mira demands Alexis save the one family member she has left. Alexis is hoping that her streak of bad luck doesn't cause her to lose her own resident and the best friend of the woman she had turned down. When passions flair in the midst of a thunderstorm, with the possible death looming over their heads, will tragedy be the end story or will they make something good and new out of a bad situation? For three weeks after Justin's near death experience intern Mira Johnson and Chief Pediatric surgeon Dr Alexis Cruz enjoyed their new found romance. For Alexis, it was a breath of fresh air and for Mira it was dream come true to be with the woman she had eyed since the day Alexis started working at Salt Lake Memorial. There was only one problem- Alexis ex-girlfriend Kiera, who was now hell bent on getting her back. When Mira overhears an argument between the two, and the fact that Alexis does not recognize their relationship at work, she decides that maybe it is time for some distance between the two. It doesn't help that on that same day Alexis is sent away on a four day conference trip. The silence Mira experiences breaks her heart, while Alexis indulges her sexual taste buds and reconnects with the one woman from her past who she was still hopelessly in love with. At the end of those four days they both will have to accept that change is inevitable. Faced with the possibility of losing the woman she has come to love, Alexis weighs the option about whether to be honest about her trysts or let it slide. When she finally tells Mira she faces a backlash she expected but had no idea how to handle. She calls on Justin for help in getting her girl back, but when he refuses she is forced to get creative. It does not help that her ex keeps showing up and one of Mira's closest friends and love interest, Kayla, blows into town and steals her away for some TLC.
