They live in Los Angeles and Tim recently got divorced after his wife Isabel got addicted to drugs, cheated on him and wound up pregnant. Tim's one rule in life is to never do anything addictive, as his father was an abusive alcoholic growing up and he's forever traumatised. He's never drank, smoked, done drugs or gambled. His rule has been especially upkeeped after his divorce, refusing to drink, even if he's sad, because he doesn't want to be like his father or end up like Isabel.

Tim Bradford is a 27 year old mafia leader feared by all. He's known to be cold hearted, cruel and not one anyone would want to cross because if they did they probably wouldn't finish it alive. He doesn't have time for anyone, he likes what he does and that take up enough time but when someone Who owns him money can't give it they give the next worthless thing in their eyes and Tim... he thinks it was the best decision. Lucy Chen is a 23 year old girl. She has had a ruff childhood and is never around to leave the house, she has been locked up in her room for as long as she has known. She gets food once a day and a couple of other things to go with it... what will it be? Will Tim save her from what she has endured or will he continue to make her life hell? Will Lucy be able to turn his cold heart into something soft or will her heart be broken more? Read to find out.

Tim & Lucy have to go undercover at a Gala event for the weekend to catch a bank robber, but they have to share a hotel room. That couldn't be so bad? Right? Takes place post 2x14, after Tim adopts Kojo. Rachel being sick is not a part of this timeline.

Lucy gets followed by her crazy ex boyfriend and ends up at Tim's place in the night. What will happen?

Sergeant Tim Bradford has one job: find the ghost who left seven bodies across Los Angeles and has never once been caught. The problem? He already knows her. Two months ago she walked into a bar and into his life - sharp, dangerous, and impossible to forget. Six nights. No last name. Gone before dawn. Her name is Lucy Chen. She is everything his badge stands against. And she is the one thing he can't bring himself to give up. The case is closing in. The choice is coming. When the man who never breaks the rules falls for the woman who never follows them - who breaks first?

When a small-town softball season brings police officer Lucy Chen face-to-face with her daughter's new coach, Tim Bradford, neither expects their lives to collide beyond the field. But when Tim's volatile ex resurfaces, Lucy finds herself drawn into his world, protecting him and his team from more than just bad plays. What starts as friendly banter and sideline teamwork slowly burns into something deeper - kisses they don't talk about, nights they can't forget, and a connection they can't deny. As the years pass, from Mia's first game to the couple's quiet, reflective later life, Tim and Lucy weather love, family, and change together. Heartwarming, dramatic, and filled with the kind of slow-burn romance that lasts a lifetime, this is their story - from first glance to forever.

"Lucy Bradford thought her life was finally complete a loving husband, a baby on the way, a future full of promise. But one morning, she wakes to find Tim gone. No note. No call. No goodbye. Just... gone. Six months pregnant and utterly alone, Lucy is forced to navigate heartbreak, motherhood, and the aching question that never leaves her: why did he leave? A year later, when Tim suddenly returns alive but haunted Lucy's fragile world shatters all over again. His reasons are wrapped in secrets and sacrifice, but none of it can erase the pain of his absence. Now they must face the wreckage together: the baby he never met, the love she almost buried, and the truth that might break them one last time. Because love can survive distance. It can survive heartbreak. But can it survive disappearance?"

Lucy had been with the police for a few years now - no longer a rookie. She had Tim. They had been together for over a year. Deeply in love. Their love radiated from them. They were partners. Lovers. Best friends. Everyone at the station knew. Everyone was rooting for them. Tim worked in METRO, so their relationship was never an issue. But Lucy carried a secret. A big one. Only one person had ever known - Captain Anderson. And now... she was gone. Only she knew what had happened to Lucy all those years ago... Back before the academy. Back before the badge. Lucy had been nineteen. A bartender. Homeless. She had to work to survive. And that's when she met him. He looked charming. Inviting. He asked her out. She said yes. And that changed everything. He kidnapped her. She knew his name - Caleb. She still sees his face. Everywhere. She doesn't remember how she escaped. Doesn't know how she got out. But she knows one thing: He's still out there. Free. He left her with scars. And a tattoo. When Tim asked her about it, she said it was a drunken mistake. A lie. One of many she had to tell. It's been ten years. And still... the fear lives on. Three times a week, she sees a therapist. And even now, she struggles to sleep in the dark. Captain Anderson sealed her file. Just in case. She knew how hard this was for Lucy. She protected her. But Lucy knows... One day, it might all come out. And she doesn't know how to explain it to anyone. Especially not Tim. He deserves honesty. Their love is built on it. And this secret could break it all. Will it come back to haunt her?

I wanted to talk to him. The last real conversation we had was weeks ago. I thought maybe, maybe today would be the day. And then I saw them. The new rookie and Tim. Kissing. Tucked away in a corner, like it was a secret they didn't want anyone to see. I waited. Maybe it would be like in those movies, where he pulls back suddenly, yells her name, says he's still in love with his ex. But that moment never came. Instead, he leaned in and kissed her deeper, holding her waist like he meant it. I couldn't move. I just stood there, frozen. And then... he looked up. His eyes met mine. He was breathless. "Oh, Luce..." he said. "I'm sorry, I-I was looking for Nolan. I didn't see anything." Lie. My heart shattered. But I turned away, walked off before the tears gave me away. It is over.

Tim and Lucy share a past, but that past isn't exactly the prettiest. And Lucy carried away from it the most beautiful gift, but also a lot of demons. Lucy is freshly 25 years old and has become the youngest sergeant in America. She has been transferred to LA as help. She herself helps victims of bullying and people who hurt themselves. And that tells us about the past of Tim and Lucy. Lucy didn't have it easy in high school. Even though she was beautiful, she was a victim of bullying because she was a nerd who didn't go out much, but rather studied and read. All of that changed when Tim started showing interest in her. I wish she had told him to go away. Nolan and Bailey are married, as are the Wopez, Harper and James as well.
