Summary
When Dr. Carina DeLuca decides to have a child, she isn’t in a relationship. She hasn’t found her home in someone else. She is on her own until she brings her daughter into the world. And then, her world becomes her daughter. Her Fiorella.
Enter Lieutenant Maya Bishop. Just as broken as usual. Just as wary of children and monogamy. But behind those carefully constructed walls there is a heart of gold to match her gold medal.
When Fiorella’s class gets a tour of Station 19, it brings Maya and Carina into each other’s orbit. The two of them start up something casual because that’s all they’re looking for… right?
OR the obligatory kid fic we finally are ready to share with you all!

Maya is a physical therapist and volunteer firefighter, always on the move and focused on others. Carina works at a shelter for survivors of domestic violence, helping those who need it most. When their paths unexpectedly intertwine, there's a spark, something deeper than mere coincidence. As they spend more time together, they begin to confront the parts of themselves they've long kept hidden, finding healing and understanding in ways they never anticipated. But destiny doesn’t always follow a straight line, and life is rarely simple.

Summary
Maya and Carina never imagined how deeply their lives would change when they opened their home to foster care. Fostered Hearts follows their heartfelt journey as they navigate the ups and downs of welcoming children into their lives, each with their own story, struggles, and needs. From joyful laughter to quiet heartbreak, every placement brings something new, and every child leaves behind a handprint on their hearts. Through it all, Maya and Carina grow, not just as foster parents, but as partners, as a team, and as the safe haven so many children have never known.
This book will be regularly updated, with each section written as a stand-alone story focusing on the journey of a different foster child. While the chapters are connected through Maya and Carina’s experience, each can be read individually as its own short story of love, resilience, and healing. Warnings will be given where needed.

Summary
Maya Bishop has a window box, and when her neighbour’s sister arrives from Italy, she needs somewhere to grow roots. It starts with herbs — but somewhere between the basil, teasing notes, and home-cooked meals left on Maya’s doorstep, something else begins to take root. Something neither of them expected. Set after Maya’s breakdown, this is a story of grief, healing, found family, and slow-burn — with a side of pastries, plants, and pasta.
This is a story about two people learning to fall apart and be caught, to trust that love can be both tender and strong, and that even after loss, something beautiful can grow.
