When grumpy ex-cop Tim Bradford moves to a quiet little town to start over, he's only looking for peace and maybe a distraction. He definitely wasn't expecting Lucy Chen-the overly cheerful bartender with a sharp tongue, soft heart, and the power to wreck his carefully guarded walls.

What begins with banter turns into undeniable chemistry. But love in a small town isn't always simple-especially with baggage, breakups, heartbreak, healing... and unexpected baby news.

From flirty bar nights to surprise proposals, steamy moments, and building a life together (literally), this is a story about second chances, found family, and love that refuses to give up.All Rights Reserved

When Lucy Chen transfers to Mid-Wilshire, she never expects to come face-to-face with the man she once shared an unforgettable summer with - Tim Bradford. Old sparks resurface, buried feelings ignite, and what starts as tension soon turns into a slow-burn journey of love, laughter, and second chances. Through flirtation, friendship, and the challenges of life in and out of uniform, Tim and Lucy discover that some connections are meant to last forever - no matter how much time has passed.

Burn Then Bloom by Nova120211

In high school, Tim Bradford had it all-looks, popularity, and a cruel streak. When he makes a bet to seduce quiet, guarded Lucy Chen, he never expects her to resist his charm-or to crack open something real inside him. But just when he finally falls for her, she overhears the truth: it was all a game. Broken and betrayed, Lucy walks away just weeks before graduation, leaving Tim with nothing but guilt and the memory of the girl he destroyed. Years later, Tim is a football superstar. Lucy is an LAPD sergeant. They never expected to see each other again-until a robbery, a badge, and a name bring everything rushing back. Now, with past wounds still bleeding and emotions running high, Tim is determined to win back the only girl he ever truly loved. But some scars don't fade.
