Angela Lopez and Tim Bradford are best friends and step siblings, but they could not be any more different. While Tim's only concern is soccer, Angela wants to enjoy herself during her senior year of high school off of the soccer pitch. The new transfer student, Wesley Evers, shows interest in her immediately, and she would love to explore their connection further, but her stepdad has strictly forbidden her from dating in high school...unless Tim dates, too. The problem: absolutely no one is interested in dating him due to his gruff and grumpy demeanor. All hope of Wes and Angela being together seems lost until a plan is hatched to get Tim to date the nicest girl in school that he has absolutely nothing in common with aside from laser focus on her own goals: Lucy Chen. Title shares the name with a song by Letters to Cleo. Loosely based on the movie "10 Things I Hate About You".

Lucy shows up to Tim's house at 12:01 on Christmas Day to sleep with him under the guise of calling it a "gift exchange"; after all, what both of them really want for Christmas is each other.

Working side by side has always been easy for Lucy Chen and Tim Bradford. Dealing with what's growing between them is not. Set during late Season 3 and early Season 4 of The Rookie, this slow-burn Chenford story follows quiet glances, dangerous calls, and moments that linger a little too long. As the line between partner and something more begins to blur, both are forced to face feelings they've been trying to ignore. Some connections can't stay hidden forever. And some moments change everything.

!AUTHORS NOTE! This story is not finished It's a normal shift Lucy and Tim out on patrol as usual. After shift Tim gets a call from his father he hasn't talked to in years. It brings back memories from Tim's childhood where his dad had been both physically and mentally abusive his whole childhood. The next day Tim is acting off and Lucy notices and try's to get Tim to tell her what's wrong but he keeps quiet. Lucy doesn't give up trying to get Tim to talk to her. Lucy is worried about Tim and it's the only thing she can think about, which makes her boyfriend Chris jealous.

An undercover operation forces Lucy and Tim to play a convincing couple, even though they can barely stand each other. The fighting is real. The tension is worse. And the longer the mission lasts, the harder it becomes to tell what's fake and what isn't.

Fresh off a painful breakup, Tim and Lucy find themselves thrown together in a dangerous hostage situation. Locked in a fight for survival, old wounds and unspoken feelings resurface amid the chaos. As they struggle to trust each other again, unexpected twists-like Tamara's kidnapping and tense confrontations-push them to their limits. When their team finally rescues them, Tim and Lucy face a reckoning that forces them to confront what they truly mean to each other. In the end, love proves to be the strongest bond of all.

She knows better than to let him touch her. But behind closed doors, better doesn't matter. It's the way he pulls her close like she already belongs there. The way her breath breaks when his mouth finds her skin. The way she forgets her own name when he says it low enough. No one sees what happens in the dark. And she'd rather die than admit how much she needs it.

What if Lucy and Chris had broken up before she and Tim went undercover as Dim and Juicy? Based on 'The Rookie' (2018 TV Show) characters. Lucy Chen is a police officer in the NYPD. When she goes on an undercover assignment with Sergeant Tim Bradford sparks fly and everything that could go wrong, does go wrong. How will Tim and Lucy react when they realise their feelings for each other? -------------------------------------------- I missed these two so wanted to write a little fanfic beginning after the series 4 finale. The story moves kinda quickly and I added a lot of action in terms of police cases and also their relationship. But don't worry this book will have a happy ending for Chenford. It won't be smooth sailing for them though ;) hope you enjoy

When undercover officers Lucy Chen and Tim Bradford are sent to pose as a married couple at a remote retreat, the mission is simple - watch the suspect, play the part, don't get personal. But one unexpected night changes everything. When duty turns to desire and distance becomes silence, they're forced apart... until fate and danger brings them back together, not as partners - but as parents. A story of love found in the mess, of second chances, and the quiet moments that say everything.

We all know and love the Valentines Day episode called "The Gala". I added a little extra twists to it. After all, Tim and Lucy have to know that their actions come with consequences... In this story, all jobs are the same as their ones in the show. Please enjoy and leave your comments and suggestions!
