Thomas Allston is a former cop who was kicked off the Norfolk, VA, police force for a "bad shoot." He loses his job and his wife, who moves on to Allston's ex-boss. As Allston said he felt like he got kicked in the Doo-Dads a few times, he moves to the northern coast of New England, where he gets a dog, a small home with an ocean view, and starts over by building his Private Investigator business.
Allston meets a tremendous woman. Their first encounter is fueled by attraction, humor, and a few too many Margaritas. They have been together since that night. Eve is educated, smart, and beautiful. She owns a trendy bakery/coffee shop that she built after working in the financial industry for a few years. Like Allston, she had a little trouble in her past.
She likes that he is real. He likes her butt and the way she thinks.
They get along by slowly opening up to each other, always joking around and moving forward.
Complications happen when Allston's dangerous job gets in the way of their peaceful life. Some people want to kill this former Marine and cop for cases that he has worked on in the past. His current caseload keeps him busy, and Eve is also busy building a thriving business, but she gets interested in Allston's cases and occasionally participates in helping to solve them.
These are two quick-thinking people who take action when needed.
This series is faithfully published M, W, F and is a perfect read during a coffee break at work.

He asked as his eyebrows raised, suddenly, he looked serious. "Did you see a wolf? A ghost? Did you saw something behind your side mirror?"

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused.

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.
