Lucy Chen and Tim Bradford - to most people, she was just his rookie. But if you looked a little closer, there had always been something more between them. What happens when a sudden undercover assignment turns everything upside down... and forces Lucy and Tim to question the feelings they've been trying to ignore? As the mission becomes more dangerous than anything they've faced before, the line between duty and emotion begins to blur.
Dirty Little Secret - Chenford
She knows better than to let him touch her. But behind closed doors, better doesn't matter. It's the way he pulls her close like she already belongs there. The way her breath breaks when his mouth finds her skin. The way she forgets her own name when he says it low enough. No one sees what happens in the dark. And she'd rather die than admit how much she needs it.
The road we never finished
One year ago, Tim Bradford broke Lucy Chen's heart and walked away without explanation. Now Sergeant Lucy Chen is stronger, promoted, and determined to never let him close again. Until she's assigned to a four-month undercover operation. Living in a van. Posing as a couple. Driving from Los Angeles down the coast to Baja, Mexico. With her ex. Every touch is "for the cover." Every kiss is supposed to be fake. But the longer they're trapped together, the harder it is to ignore the tension, the memories... and the questions Lucy never got answers to. Because Tim didn't just leave. He hid something. And somewhere between fake love and real danger, Lucy is about to find out the truth - The real reason he walked away.Complete

The Other Woman
Tim's mouth was on her neck before she even got her jacket off, Lucy's back hitting the wall of the hallway as she tugged at his belt. "She'll be home in thirty minutes," he muttered against her skin, and Lucy just laughed softly, already wrapping one leg around him. "Then we'll be quick." It was almost mechanical at this point - familiar and practiced, like they'd done this a hundred times before because they had. Tim hitched her up, and Lucy's fingers dug into his shoulders as she guided him exactly where she needed him, no hesitation, no fumbling. She'd stopped feeling guilty months ago; now it just felt like routine, like something built into both their schedules that neither of them questioned anymore. He was rougher than he used to be - less careful, more impatient - and she didn't mind. When he pushed into her she let out a breath that was more relief than surprise, her head falling back against the wall. Twenty-eight minutes, she thought, and then stopped thinking altogether.
Almost Casual - Chenford
Tim Bradford doesn't believe in distractions - which is exactly why Sergeant Lucy Chen is becoming one. She transfers in polished, composed, and entirely unimpressed by his reputation, meeting every dry remark with a steadier one of her own. He doesn't go easy on people, but he doesn't go hard on her either, and that line between professional and personal starts to blur in the quiet moments - shared patrol cars, lingering eye contact, the kind of teasing that sounds harmless until it isn't. She carries herself like someone who has more waiting for her than just the job, and Tim tells himself he doesn't need to know what that is. He just needs to remember she's his partner - and nothing else.
