Pinky Promise

Elizabeth Moore has one rule: avoid Dr. Spencer Reid.

Ellie thinks Spencer is insufferable. Spencer thinks Ellie is reckless.

Both of them are right.

But when the BAU's latest case forces them into a high-stakes undercover operation, they're forced to work side by side, with no choice but to confront the tensions between them. Trapped in close quarters, their constant bickering only grows more intense and their silences linger longer. As the mission progresses, something shifts - an undeniable connection begins to form, one neither of them is prepared to face.

With danger closing in, Ellie's unwavering resilience becomes the key to survival. And for Spencer, who's forced to watch her risk everything, it becomes painfully clear: losing her isn't an option - not for the mission, and not for him.

Because hate is easy, but love? Love is complicated. And in the dark world they navigate, letting someone in might be the most dangerous thing of all.
