Drjackabbot Stories

Welcome to the night shift. Nothing makes sense, and everyone's a little sleep-deprived. In The Night Shift: Tales from The Pitt, each chapter drops you into a new late-night adventure inside Pittsburgh Trauma's legendary ER. Whether it's thermostat wars, code blues that turn into dance-offs, or Shen declaring himself "King of the Blankets," one thing is guaranteed: chaos. Follow Dr. Jack Abbot, Dr. Emery Walsh, Dr. Parker Ellis, and Dr. John Shen-your favorite overcaffeinated disaster crew-as they stumble through the weirdest hours of the hospital clock. Packed with sarcastic banter, emotional whiplash, and a suspicious amount of snack-based sabotage, this one-shot collection brings the unhinged brilliance of the night shift to life, one ridiculous shift at a time. One ER. Four night goblins. Zero chill. Literally.

Camryn Wells wasn't trying to rebuild her life so much as outrun the version of it that nearly destroyed her. After a year and a half off the grid, nursing wounds no one could see and some that still ached like hell, she's back in Pittsburgh. Sort of. She's here for Gwen, the woman who adopted her, who's now fading into early-onset dementia. She's on night shift, working trauma at PTMC, trying to remember the nurse she used to be-and to convince her small army of overprotective siblings that she's fine now. That she's not the broken girl they saw in that hospital bed in Boston. Camryn is sunshine incarnate: bright-eyed, too kind, stubbornly hopeful, and despite everything, still believes in second chances. What she didn't plan on? Her new next-door neighbor just happens to be the gruff, quiet, unflinchingly calm ED attending who runs her shift with surgical precision... and dry quips that cut sharper than a scalpel. Dr. Jack Abbot doesn't do distractions. Not from interns. Not from administration. And definitely not from the impossibly cheerful nurse who crash-landed into his backyard and, somehow, into his life. Guarded, fiercely competent, and more at ease in chaos than comfort, Jack prefers solitude-until Camryn. With her pastel mugs, man-hating cat, and maddening habit of calling him out with a smile, she worms her way into every corner of his neatly boxed-off world. She's not what he expected. And he's exactly what she wasn't ready for. But on the night shift, where everything broken comes through the door eventually, maybe they'll both learn healing doesn't always look like what you thought.
