Life's Too Short - A Chenford Story
Tim and Lucy have a fight. Before they have a chance to resolve it, Lucy is swept into a hostage situation. This story is full of angst and shows a very vulnerable Tim Bradford. Hope you enjoy! This is canon-compliant until 5x19, but it's really a stand-alone #chenford fanfic.Complete
In the Line of Desire
"She's just my rookie." and "He's just my Sergeant." Only if it were that simple there'd be no story to tell... Lucy Chen joined the LAPD to prove herself. What she didn't expect was to be paired with someone likeTim Bradford-her no-nonsense training officer whose bark is exactly as sharp as his bite. At first, their partnership is a clash of wills, but underneath the tension simmers something neither of them dares name. When Lucy's personal life implodes and Tim's fractured relationship pushes him past his limits, the two find themselves circling closer-caught between duty, desire, and the unspoken bond that grows with every shift. From patrol calls in Los Angeles to an undercover operation in Las Vegas, where they must pose as lovers in order to bring down a dangerous drug syndicate, Tim and Lucy's act becomes harder to separate from reality. Every touch, every glance, every kiss blurs the lines between cover and confession. But with enemies closing in, secrets threatening to surface, and their careers hanging in the balance, one thing becomes clear: the most dangerous risk they'll take may not be the job-it may be each other.

Chenford ~ Their story
Tim Bradford is a training officer at the LAPD, who gets a new rookie, Lucy Chen. Instantly Tim and Lucy realize, that there's something between them. They both have to hide their feelings towards each other because it would be strictly forbidden to act on them. But what happens when some things are more important than any rules?
Bradford's Diary
Lucy almost got a heart attack when, while waiting for Tim in the men's locker room, found a leather-bound notebook with the word "Bradford" written on the cover. She couldn't believe it, her hard-ass T.O. Tim Bradford had been keeping a diary. And her curiosity was killing her. Little did she know, what she would find written inside... I don't own these The Rookie characters, but I do own the plot.Complete
When the Dust Clears
When duty brings them back together, old wounds refuse to stay buried. Sergeant Lucy Chen and Tim Bradford thought their story had ended-until a case turns deadly and forces them to face the truth neither can outrun. Haunted by guilt, jealousy, and the ghosts of their past, Tim's protectiveness collides with Lucy's strength as danger closes in from all sides. Alongside Tamara-the heart of their found family-they'll fight for survival, redemption, and the love that never truly faded. In the chaos of smoke and sirens, sometimes the only way to survive... is together.Complete
The 3 A.M. Rule | Chenford
There's an unspoken rule in the LAPD: if someone calls after 3 a.m., it better be life or death. So when Lucy Chen finds herself dialing Tim Bradford in the middle of the night after a nightmare, she expects silence - not for him to answer on the first ring. The call is short. Quiet. Safe. And it accidentally starts something they can't stop. What begins as a lifeline during sleepless nights becomes a ritual neither of them wants to break. Every call brings them closer - shared silences, confessions half-whispered into darkness, and feelings neither of them can admit under daylight. But when a dangerous call on duty nearly shatters everything, Tim and Lucy are forced to confront what's been growing between them - not with words mumbled through sleep, but with eyes open, hearts racing, and no more excuses. Because after so many calls at 3 a.m., they're both starting to realize... Maybe it was never just about the time. Maybe it's always been about each other. | I also post this on my AO3 account |Complete![Falling For Lucy [The Rookie; Tim Bradford POV]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/326738156-256-k534152.jpg)
Falling For Lucy [The Rookie; Tim Bradford POV]
She's my rookie. I can't have feelings for her. That's what I keep telling myself. But every day I ride with Lucy Chen is another day I fall for her. She's my ride or die. She always has my back. And I will never let anything happen to her. I'd die for her. But she can't know how I feel, nobody can. Falling For Lucy is my thesis on how and why Tim Bradford has been falling for Lucy Chen since the very beginning of the show. I, personally, believe the show writers did not do this on purpose, and the story has written itself. This is my detailed account of Tim Bradford's POV throughout The Rookie with some creative liberties taken to fill in the blanks. This is a super slow burn, just like the show. This book will always be 100% canon to the show. And yes, I am watching the show five seconds at a time giving you every detail of every second of Tim Bradford's experience. This is The Rookie: Tim's POV. So if that sounds interesting to you, you will enjoy this book. Also! Check out Lusting For Lucy for more mature bonus chapters, one-shots, and alternate timelines. I have the entirety of Dim & Juicy written over there, and it seems to be a fan favorite with an additional steamy alt ending. Enjoy!

Please be patient with me, I am still committed to this story, but like I have a regular life, a demanding dog, and a full time job too. _______________________ Check out my Spotify playlist that is paired with this book.

Girl Dad, Training Required
When Tim Bradford's wife walked out, he was left to raise their pre-teen daughter alone-clueless about hormones, meltdowns, and first periods. Enter Lucy: his steady, sharp, and unexpectedly essential friend. She became his go-to for everything he couldn't handle-pads, patience, and perspective. Now, with parenting turning personal, Tim's starting to wonder if their bond is more than friendship... or if it always was.Complete
