One Day She Stops Being Your Rookie What would happen if Season 1 Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen came face-to-face with the people they'd become years later? A rookie who thinks her Training Officer barely tolerates her. A TO who is convinced he'll never look at his rookie as anything more. And across from them? An older Tim and Lucy-engaged, living together, and somehow completely in love. For Lucy, it's equal parts shocking and embarrassing. For Tim, it's a full-blown nightmare. As the younger versions struggle to comprehend the future sitting across from them, they're forced to watch years of growth, friendship, and feelings they haven't even begun to understand unfold right before their eyes. The future doesn't care what they think is impossible. Filled with humor, nostalgia, and plenty of Chenford chaos, this story follows two versions of Tim and Lucy as they discover just how far they've come..and just how much was there from the very beginning. After all, one day she stops being his rookie. And one day he becomes so much more than her Training Officer. ❤️

Lucy Chen a 26 year old woman is about to start her rookie time along with her two best friends John Nolan and Jackson West at Mid Wilshire station. But Lucy has two huge secrets that not even her best friends know... Lucy Chen is not her real name. Chen is her mother's maiden name, that she used to apply to the academy, since she didn't want anyone making the connection. Because not only is she the daughter of lieutenant Wade Grey of Mid Wilshire, but she is also the wife of Mid Wilshire's sergeant Tim Bradford. And she wants to keep all this a secret so no one thinks she has gotten special treatment, she wants to prove herself. But this means keeping her secrets hidden...

A laundry room hook-up. Which leaves Tamara alone with her two siblings.

In which Tim and Lucy are soulmates. It's too bad that she's temporarily dead when this discovery is made. Chenford Soulmate AU set after DOD. - This isn't how it's supposed to happen. Tim wasn't supposed to find his soulmate after she'd just been buried alive, and is now limp in his arms. She isn't supposed to be dead, after he'd been dismissing her day after day for the last year, none the wiser. Lucy would tease him, if she could. She'd laugh as she tells him that being a grump means he's wasted all this time, and she'd probably kiss him. Because, apparently, they're soulmates.

Lucy finds a mysterious, beat-up notebook while cleaning out the precinct locker room. It's titled: "Rookie Survival Guide - Chen Edition (Do Not Touch, Seriously, Stop Reading)" It's Tim Bradford's private collection of sarcastic notes, advice, and personal observations from her rookie year. Like: "Rule #14: If Chen smiles before a prank, duck." "Rule #27: She asks too many questions, but they're usually good. Don't tell her that." "Rule #39: If she ever flirts - don't get your hopes up. She's not serious. (I think.)" Lucy's both mortified and weirdly touched. So, naturally, she writes her own version: "The Bradford Manual - Emotional Walls Edition." Cue a hilarious, flirty back-and-forth war of notebooks, pranks, and secret notes... that slowly turn into something deeper.

Lucy Chen thought she had her life figured out-until everything fell apart. Two weeks after her breakup with Tim Bradford, the man who once felt like home, Lucy is barely speaking to him and trying to find her own path.

Not ready to face the past, she asks for a transfer far from California, keeping her secret close to her heart. When she moves to Hawaii, she starts over-buys a house, makes new friends, and prepares for a future that no one could have predicted. But life has a way of turning the unexpected into something magical. Nine months later, Lucy welcomes three beautiful, spirited children into the world: two girls and a boy, each with their own quirks, challenges, and unshakable charm. For three years, Lucy raises her children with love, laughter, and stories of a man they've never met, showing them a photo of their father so they'll know what he looks like. And while she builds a life in Hawaii, her heart quietly wonders if the past will ever catch up. When Lucy finally returns to California, she's not prepared for the chaos and joy that follow. A casual trip to the station becomes a whirlwind of emotions when her children almost run into someone who doesn't yet know they're his. Tim Bradford. And when he hugs her, it's like no time has passed-but everything has changed. Now, Lucy and Tim navigate laughter, tears, and the unspoken past as she introduces their children to a father they never knew. From playground ice cream to bedtime stories, they learn what it means to be a family-messy, beautiful, and imperfectly perfect. With love, heartbreak, second chances, and three little hearts that tie them together forever, The Prince in the Picture is a heartfelt, emotional story that will make you laugh, cry, and fall in love with the chaos and wonder of family life all over again.
