"I stopped talking when I was six years old I didn't want anything more to do with the outside world, I was happy being quiet But of course they wouldn't leave me alone My parents tried every trick in the book From speech therapists to child psychologists They even tried bribery I could have anything, as long as I said it out loud Life is unfair Kill yourself, or get over it" Lucy Chen Kid!Fic published : 3 | 17 | 26 finished : status : ongoing

"Officer Natalie Monroe?" "Yes, sir?" "Welcome to Mid-Wilshire." Natalie Monroe Badge Number 30387 Police Officer II Hollywood Division ⊳ Mid-Wilshire Division Natalie Monroe didn't become a cop because she thought it was honorable. She became one because she knew exactly what happens when help arrives too late. Armed with a criminology degree and a focus in victim advocacy, Natalie entered the academy with one goal: to make sure no one else was left behind. She graduated at the top of her class, but nothing in training could prepare her for what came next. Out of the four rookies she started with, Natalie was the only one who made it through the year. It didn't take long to learn that surviving this job has nothing to do with being the smartest in the room-it's about whether you can keep standing when everything around you starts to fall apart. At twenty-seven, Natalie has already built a reputation for being sharp under pressure, relentless in the field, and impossible to shake. She graduated at the top of her academy class, survived a rookie year that took out everyone else beside her, and learned the hard way that being a good cop means living with the things you can't fix. Then one call changes everything. What starts as a normal response turns into a nightmare in seconds. The scene is wrong from the moment she arrives. The details don't match. Backup is too far out. The suspect is unpredictable. And before Natalie can get control of the situation, everything explodes. And when the pressure starts closing in, Natalie has to decide who she really is beneath the badge-before the job decides for her. ⎮ Roll Call Series⎮ ⎮Book 1⎮⎮Season 1&2⎮ ⎮ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TO ABC⎮

Isabella Reyes is a fearless EMT who's seen it all, trauma, heartbreak, and everything in between, after a childhood spent bouncing through foster homes. She's tough, sarcastic, and has zero interest in letting anyone close... until a spilled beer at O'Malley's Bar leads to a scorching one-night stand with the LAPD's most intimidating training officer, Sergeant Tim Bradford. What starts as no-strings-attached fun quickly turns into something neither of them expected. They keep running into each other, on chaotic emergency scenes, at the bar with their crews, during late-night stakeouts, and every encounter fans the flames higher. Between life-or-death calls, steamy hookups, and moments of raw vulnerability, Isabella and Tim find themselves falling hard. But both carry scars: her from a past with no safety net, him from a failed marriage and years of walls built high. As danger on the job puts Isabella in harm's way more than once, Tim's protective instincts, and his growing love, get pushed to the limit.
