What if Angela and Tim were partners at work. Lucy was an undercover detective in North Hollywood and she just happens to be Angela's BFF.. When the North Hollywood and Mid-Wilsher divisions collide for a case. What will happen?

What starts as harmless fun turns into a slow-burning fire neither of them expected. When Lucy dares Tim to steal Smitty's donut, it kicks off a string of playful challenges between them-everything from prank calls to ridiculous uniforms and flirty games on patrol. The whole precinct watches the escalating dares like it's their favorite show, complete with bets and running commentary (Celina might be their biggest shipper). But what begins as innocent teasing quickly grows more personal-and more dangerous to their hearts. The dares start cutting close, emotions rise, and the line between friendship and something more begins to blur. One wall pin, one whispered confession, and one final dare will change everything. Because the biggest risk of all... is falling in love.

This is the Sequel to Saving Lucy! Follow our favorite rookies and all of their friends through the crazy thing called life as and LAPD Officer.
