In which a detective asks to return to patrol work, the reason unknown to anyone. Madison "Maddy" Hale was a detective. She graduated the academy with Tim Bradford, he remembers her as someone who was almost too focused on becoming a detective; so imagine his shock when she returns. Maddy works through her fears, determined to become the best patrol officer she can be. She's avoiding facing her fears of being a detective again.

She makes coffee. He makes arrests. She's twenty-five. He's forty-five. Tim Bradford didn't expect a tiny corner coffee shop to become the only place he could breathe after a long shift. He also didn't expect the smiley blonde barista behind the counter to notice more than his coffee order. She's sunshine and latte art. He's grumpy, disciplined, and allergic to small talk. But when her warmth starts slipping past his walls, Tim finds himself wondering if maybe he's not too old for second chances-or for falling in love with someone half his age. It's caffeine meets badge, sugar meets steel... and an age-gap romance that might just prove the perfect blend

Rookie cop Rose Whitley only wanted to prove herself - to the LAPD, to her family, and to the demanding training officer who seems determined to make her life hell. Officer Tim Bradford is everything she hates in a cop: cold, harsh, and rule-bound. But when a call leads Rose to a brutal drug trafficking case tied to her own family, she's thrown into a web of secrets, danger, and betrayal. Shut out of the official investigation, Rose begins to dig in secret - breaking rules, risking her badge, and pulling Bradford along with her. As the case unravels and the stakes climb higher, the line between right and wrong blurs. So does the line between hate and something much deeper. What starts as defiance turns into something undeniable, but falling for your training officer in the middle of an illegal investigation isn't just complicated - it's dangerous. In a city where loyalty can get you killed and love might cost you your future, Rose and Tim have one shot to bring the truth to light... if it doesn't burn them first.

Her presence disrupts John's quiet life and immediately sparks tension with Tim Bradford, who sees Violet as guarded, arrogant, and distrustful. Amid secrets, conflicts, and moments of vulnerability, Violet will have to find the courage to face her past, mend her bond with her brother, and figure out whether she can trust the man in front of her, even when the attraction becomes undeniable.
