In a world where neither Adeline Beckett or her boss Aaron Hotchner thought they deserved happiness, they accidentally stumble across it. But they're sworn to Secrecy.

A case goes wrong when feds are called to assist your investigation, and it's mostly because of you. Instead of avoiding the matter like you usually do, you send an apology email to the calm, collected, ever-serious unit chief, SSA Aaron Hotchner, in hopes you can better understand your mistakes - and how NOT to repeat them. What you don't realize is that sends everything into a wholly different direction, and you realize it too late. A chain of emails starts up between him and the actual person whose email you had been logged on: your fellow, male detective, who you now have to pretend to be. (Elevator pitch: you ask for help from hotch, not knowing you're still signed in from your male coworker's email. You keep up the ruse and neither of u knows what u signed up for) Slowburn! Friends to lovers! And quite a lot of emailin/texting! (Bonus: huge misunderstanding!) IMAGE source: horde-lord on tumblr I do not own Criminal Minds, the characters or the story!*

That is until one day he arrives home to a ransom note smeared in blood instead of his six year old son, Jack. Desperate to save the only part of him he has left, Hotch seeks out for a new pair of eyes to help his team, which so happens to be Melanie Davis, top of the BAU Academy. But when her help to find his son turns into a threat of not only Aaron's but her life as well, will she leave the team hanging in the investigation to save both Aaron and possibly his son's life, or will she stay and risk her own for reuniting a boy and his father ... and for love?
