Summary
“To the end of the world,” Lucy murmurs, and she doesn’t know if it’s the look in his eyes, the desperation of the moment, or the knowledge that the world might be ending and they may never get another chance that propels them forward.
Tim smirks, her heart thunders in her chest, and she takes a single step closer to him.
“Whenever that may be,” he says, and then he’s raising the glass to his lips and taking a long swig. Lucy mirrors the movement and then licks her lips, the tequila burning down her throat as Tim stares at her, his own lips wet with the whiskey he’s clutching in his hand.
“Tim,” she breathes, because despite the fact that he hasn’t let her be afraid yet, she is a little bit.
“Lucy,” he murmurs.
She doesn’t know who moves first, just that, later, it keeps her up at night.

Chenford hooks up during the missile threat and there are consequences.

Summary
What would Tim Bradford do if he woke up one day and realized the life he remembered wasn’t the one he was living?
-----
The door creaks open mid-sentence, and Tim’s words falter immediately. Lucy steps into the room, and her presence is like a sudden shift in the air. Finally, they can get out of here. His full attention slides her, but all previous frustration he felt is momentarily eclipsed by something else.She’s been crying. It’s written all over her face, plain as day. Her eyes are red and glassy, the faint puffiness beneath them in addition to her slightly pink nose making her look far more vulnerable than he’s used to seeing. Even her posture betrays her; she’s standing too stiffly, her arms wrapped tightly around her midsection as though she’s holding herself together by sheer will alone.
Angela might actually have a point.
If he didn’t feel bad enough before, he sure does now.

Summary
“That was … god, that was beautiful.”
Tim hums in agreement, watching as Dom and sub hold each other in the aftermath of their public scene. He then turns around, and his eyes widen and his breath catches in his throat as he realizes who is standing next to him, speaking to him.
God, but she’s breathtaking.
“Y-yeah, it was,” he stammers, and he feels like he can barely breathe as he watches her. “The aftercare… it’s one of my favorite parts.”
The woman nods, and Tim watches out of the corner of his eye as she wraps her arms around her chest. Her eyes are downcast and her fingers shake a little as she tucks them into her underarms, and Tim frowns because even after scening, a sub shouldn’t be shaking the way she is.
“Are you alright?” he asks, and she nods as she bites her lip and glances up at him.
OR
Tim is a BDSM club owner and Lucy is a sub with a bad Dom. The universe brings them together, and nothing will ever be the same again.

Summary
Before Lucy and Tim ever meet they become internet friends over AIME—an Anonymous Internal Mail Exchange for the LAPD, where they surprisingly enjoy talking to each other. Spending their off duty hours confiding in one another, decompressing about their day, and seeking advice on how to deal with the grumpiest TO ever or the most talkative rookie in the history of the LAPD.
However, as time wears on and details seep through the cracks, the only question that remains is, how long can they stay anonymous?

Summary
Lucy Chen is a rising star in the LAPD, driven by unwavering determination and a soul-consuming secret: five years ago, she left a hospital with empty arms after being told her daughter had died during childbirth. On the other side of town, Tim Bradford, a man of steel forged by the streets, is a single father to little Amy, the product of a turbulent relationship with his ex-wife, Isabel.
Fate puts them in the same patrol car, where the tension between the relentless training officer and the rookie heiress to a real estate empire hides a connection neither could ever imagine. As they face the unpredictable routine of the Los Angeles streets and find themselves entangled in a disturbing case that defies logic, small cracks begin to show. Strange coincidences. Details that shouldn't matter… but do.
In the midst of a battle for identity, justice, and the heart of a child who doesn't know who to hate or who to love, they will have to decide: are they strangers united by a crime of the past, or a family forged in pain and hope?Bookmarked by AliUpper

Summary
“Feed from me,” she said. Asked. Offered.
His face closed off entirely. He looked even more mad than at her little unclothed stunt. “No.”
Tim pulled the door open with abnormal strength, but Lucy moved accordingly, blocking the path with her body.
“Why not?” she pressed. “I’m your consort, that is literally why—”
“That is a cover-up. An excuse for you not to marry a parlour-bred political wannabe.”
“Tim.” She forced her hips back, closing the door again with a soft thud.
—
In order to run from a forced marriage orchestrated by her mother, Lucy runs to the only person who could help her. Her long-time protector, Tim Bradford. Except the only way he can do so is by snapping her away to England and making her his blood bag. A couple of bad decisions later, Lucy Chen is taking residence at the Mulgrave Estate, along with Tim's vampire clan.
For Lucy, there is a problem, though. A scrawny, tall, awfully blonde problem who turns Tim's attention into a competition.
For Tim, the problem is another altogether: Lucy had never said anything about the second main reason for her request being to seduce him.

Summary
“Were you watching me sleep?”
He doesn’t immediately answer. It’s Tim for yes.
She’d fallen asleep holding his hand and woken up with him again and it isn’t the morning after the worst day of her life anymore. It feels like what she’s been waiting for. It feels like permission.
OR - Tim and Lucy (really convincingly) fake date, fall for each other, and attend a wedding. Maybe not in that exact order.

Summary
“Officer Chen, where is the happiest place on Earth?”
She blinks. “Um. From a psychological standpoint, that probably varies from person to person, sir. I’m not sure—“
She can hear quiet laughter in the room, and Grey looks like he wants to join in. Off his look, she stops. “Um. Right here, sir?”
“Officer Bradford, what about you — happiest place on Earth?”
“Easy. Dodgers game, cold beer, bases loaded.”
They're both wrong.
OR -- Tim and Lucy find out their happiest places on Earth aren't places at all. All it takes is a trip to Disneyland, an undercover princess, and more flirty touching than Disney has ever seen.

Summary
Tim and Lucy’s first meeting triggers an instant, overwhelming mate bond. As her TO, Tim brutally shuts it down (her down), citing his marriage, their age difference, and the risks of their job, leaving Lucy hurt and angry.
What follows is a journey of pain and healing. Tim must confront the damage he caused and learn to be the alpha Lucy deserves. Lucy, guarded and resilient, slowly lets him back in while navigating trauma, duty, and the undeniable pull that refuses to let them go.

Summary
The last place Tim Bradford expects to find his soulmate is sitting in the shop beside him.
On her first day as his rookie.
Or: Lucy and Tim are rookie and TO who happen to sometimes understand each other in metaphysical ways. It's completely fine. Tim thinks it's fine, and he knows that Lucy thinks it's fine, too, thanks to the aforementioned metaphysical understanding. And if they're hyperconscious of not brushing up against each other by accident, well--Tim thinks that might be the only thing maintaining the illusion that Lucy is nothing more than a rookie he thinks about a little too often.

Summary
At 35,000 feet, everything makes sense to Tim. It's on the ground where things get complicated, like his stalled divorce, his fear of starting over, and the flight attendant with chestnut-brown eyes who makes him forget all his troubles. Lucy believes in taking chances, even on emotionally unavailable pilots who can't even ask for her number. Sometimes the best things find you when you least expect them, and sometimes they leave their number on your post-flight paperwork and dare you to be brave.
