Summary
The woman tosses the dripping tray into the bin and swans off toward her car, leaving Carla standing there soaked and vaguely baffled. She swears those big green eyes lingered on her chest a second too long, but she lets it slide.
She’s practically flashing her golden globes at half of Manchester, and of course, she’s wearing black lace. Because why wouldn’t she be?

Summary
Lisa already knew what to expect. Or rather, who to expect… Carla Connor had been transferred from Humberside Police, and while Lisa hadn’t heard much about her directly, the whispers from colleagues had been enough to form an opinion. Despite the glowing reviews and action-packed stories she’d been told, she wasn’t exactly optimistic about the new arrival.
Or
Carla and Lisa are both detectives, forced to work together despite being polar opposites. Chaos (among other stuff) ensues.

Summary
Carla has had enough, enough of Becky, enough of feeling like an outsider, an interloper, in her own home. Enough of watching the love of her life be pulled closer and closer to the not so dead wife that she can’t seem to see through.
Little does she know, it’s not just her that she has to think about.

Summary
“Doesn’t your husband do most of the work?” Carla asks, eyes widening as soon as she realises what she’s said. She scrambles immediately. “Sorry. I meant… Well. Not that women can’t— Oh god. I’m making it worse, aren’t I?”
“Carla, it’s fine… But there’s no husband. The farm’s mine. I do have a couple of staff who help me out though.”
“Wow… Must be hard work,” Carla says, blowing out a breath.
“Why? ‘Cause I’m a woman?”
