FBI profiler Harper Sloan is used to chasing darkness - long hours, brutal cases, and the constant weight of knowing the minds of monsters better than her own. But when a series of violent crimes unexpectedly end up Seattle at the same time she's visiting her brother, Harper finds herself forced to walk the line between the horrors she hunts and the family she's nearly lost to time. Her older brother, Mark Sloan - renowned plastic surgeon, legendary flirt, and fiercely protective big brother - isn't thrilled to see his sister tangled in another high-risk investigation. Especially not when it's happening right in the city he calls home. Alongside former childhood friend and neurosurgeon Derek Shepherd, Mark is determined to give Harper something she's never had: space to rest, people to lean on, and a reason to stay. As Harper balances high-stakes BAU cases with the chaotic rhythm of life inside Seattle Grace Mercy West, she begins to rediscover what it means to be more than a profiler - to be a sister, a friend, and maybe even something more. But the closer her work gets to Seattle's heart, the more the lines blur between healing wounds and confronting old ones. Because monsters don't just live in the field - sometimes, they hide in the places we thought were safe. {Spencer Reid x Lexie Grey} {Aaron Hotchner x Original Character}

𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑 was not supposed to include falling in love. After a divorce uproots her life, Veronica Forbes moves away from home to pursuit a new beginning. Upon her arrival, she's determined to focus on her career and nothing more, but her plans quickly change upon meeting Aaron Hotchner. After the loss of his wife, Aaron isn't looking for anything beyond survival. Together, they learn that moving on doesn't mean forgetting what came before. Sometimes, it simply means allowing yourself to begin again.

Amelia "Mia" DeLuca has lived her life in silence. Abandoned as a child, scarred by the people meant to love her, and hardened by years of survival, she's built walls so high that no one has ever scaled them-no one except Emily Prentiss. Together, they shared secrets in ivy-covered halls at Yale, and later, they bled for a classified task force that nearly cost them everything. Now, years later, Mia steps into the Behavioural Analysis Unit. With her fluent Italian, razor-sharp instincts, and an icy facade, she fits seamlessly into the team of profilers who live in shadows. To everyone else, she is unreadable..untouchable. Everyone except him. Unit Chief Aaron Hotchner has mastered control. After loss and betrayal, he has no room left for vulnerability. But something in Mia calls to him: the darkness she hides, the scars she won't show, the fire that breaks through when she slips into Italian. Against every instinct, Hotch finds himself drawn to her. As cases push the BAU to its limits and Mia's past threatens to resurface, two guarded souls will have to choose: keep hiding behind their shadows and scars... or risk everything for the one person who sees them clearly. A story of secrets, trust, and a love that refuses to stay buried.
