Les Femmes
In a world where justice is portrayed by a badge, some battles are fought far beyond the streets.
San Francisco, early 2000s. Elena Lopez has finally earned her place in the detective squad - a dream she nearly lost to failure, fear, and the weight of expectation. But stepping into the role isn't the victory she imagined. It's only the beginning. Will her unbreakable spirit help her soar - or become the reason for her downfall?
In a world where the voices of women are ignored and taken for granted, how will she rise against old power and deep-rooted prejudice - forces determined to keep her from spreading her wings?
Les Femmes is not just a novel - it's a voice for those who have been silenced. A story of grit, heart, and fire, it follows a resilient woman who dares to stand up, speak out, and fight for her place in a world that tells her she doesn't belong.

Free on Wattpad. ********** A GOOD MAN, FALLING APART Small town police officer Simon Labelle repressed his attraction to sexy shopgirl Leona Chaisty for years. He's good at controlling his feelings--or he used to be, before the bombing that he can't solve, that he should have prevented. Now, after a chance encounter with Leona at the lake, Simon can't get her out of his head. All those high school fantasies roar to life. A BAD GIRL, WISHING FOR MORE Leona is drawn to the intensity in Simon's pretty-boy blue eyes, but he's a good man, and she's not just hopelessly kinky--she'll never know how to love. Still, unlike everyone else, Simon acts like she might actually have a heart. The more time they spend together, the more she wishes he were right. A CHALLENGE NEITHER CAN RESIST After a second unsolved case pulls them together, their sexual chemistry rattles them both, and hints at an unsettling fetish that Simon struggles to suppress. Leona pushes Simon to decide what he wants--whether to dominate, submit, or some mix of both--while Simon, already falling for his dream girl, finally gets her to admit that she's lonely. Each challenges the other to reveal more, to cede control, to be vulnerable. But they're both more fragile than they appear. It's only a matter of time before one pushes too hard, and the other breaks. ********** Trigger warnings for depression, suicidal ideation, and possibly alcoholism. Significant child abuse (neglect only) is also part of a character's backstory. There is gender-bending, femdom, and a pretty scary control-based fetish. There is also off-screen violence and death, and mild on-screen violence.Complete![The Red Veil | Mafia [GXG]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/401080445-256-k76593.jpg)
