Summary
“When will I see you next?”
“Saturday,” Yolanda straightens, “on Rod Laver.”
“No pre-match good luck kiss?”
“You’d be so lucky.” Garcia walks to the door and grasps the handle for a second before turning on her heel. “Meet me in the players' lounge ten minutes before we leave for walkouts.”

Summary
After starting off the 2025 season by winning her maiden Grand Slam at the age of 28, Trinity Santos is learning how to handle not only the pressure and expectation that comes with the highest level of success, but also a blooming friendship? rivalry? acquaintance? (Trinity doesn't know what to call it) with World No. 2, Yolanda Garcia.

Summary
“ if, perchance, you should grieve at all, let her not perceive it;
and laugh when, within yourself, you could have wept.
— Ovid, Remedia AmorisThe thing about the words we say, even the ones we mean to say, is that we can never really tell how completely they might unravel a life. And for Yolanda Garcia, who has built herself carefully around discipline, distance and the absolute refusal to need anybody at all, it only takes one badly timed sentence for everything to begin coming apart.
aka my take on post series 2 Garsantos and how Yolanda and trinity might come back together again.

Summary
The air in the room became distinctly uncomfortable. McKay flicked her eyes curiously between the two woman, watching them interact with some degree of confusion. “Uh, sorry— you two know each other?”
“She’s my ex-wife,” Garcia spits, keeping her eyes locked sharply with Trinity’s in a challenging glare.

Summary
After her father’s sudden death, Trinity returns to her childhood home in Boulder, Colorado; a place of manicured lawns, suppressed trauma, and the conservative family she has long kept at arm’s length. Yolanda accompanies but only after agreeing to Trinity's terms that they pose as friends, forcing their long-term relationship to become a secret. What begins as a brief trip to organize a funeral stretches into an indefinite stay when Trinity’s brothers guilt her into staying behind to care for their mother. As the days turn into weeks, Yolanda remains at Trinity’s side, but their relationship begins to feel the effects of being tucked away for too long. As Trinity's ghosts from Boulder grow increasingly relentless, she and Yolanda must confront whether their relationship can survive the turbulence, or if they should have abandoned ship long ago.
or
Trinity brings Yolanda to her childhood home with the requirement that they hide their relationship from her conservative family. The ramifications of that choice quickly make themselves clear as their relationship is challenged.
It's "Happiest Season" but in the summer, with a death in the family, a (somewhat) healthier relationship, and no Aubrey Plaza.

Summary
Santos should be in her last year of med school, but instead, she's making coffees across the street from the life she's supposed to have.
She's good at keeping people out, burning things down before they burn her first.
Then Garcia walks in and orders the shitty-looking cinnamon roll, and it all goes sideways from there.
i.e. not your average coffee shop AU

Summary
“The easiest way to clean you up, besides keeping you away from the club, for the love of God—” Trinity opens her mouth to argue, but Samira just holds up a hand and shakes her head, “—is to give you a love interest. And people love a co-star romance. They’re hot right now and we think if it seems like you and Yolanda are dating—especially with Yolanda being as serious and respected as she is, we can have much more support for you before you even start filming.”
Trinity nods, processing the words for a moment before they actually begin to settle within her. “Wait—you want us to date?”
Trinity Santos, longtime film actress stuck just below the level of true awards acclaim due to a bad reputation for never shutting her mouth and never leaving the club before dawn, finds herself signing onto a PR relationship with the goal of cleaning up her image. Of course, this fake relationship is with none other than Academy Award winning actress—and her future co-star—Yolanda Garcia.

“You think that she went in on the water on purpose?” Langdon asked quietly.
“She knows how to swim” Garcia felt her own voice trembling “she's a good swimmer.”

Summary
Memory can be funny like that. Trinity looks at her and remembers the Yolanda from months ago, sat across from her with a drink in hand, their knees brushing every time one of them leaned in to say something. The dim lighting of the bar had softened her eyes, painting her face into an expression that could almost be mistaken for the same longing that echoed inside Trinity’s chest.
A lot can change in ten months. Not all of it for the better.
Or: It happens in increments, like all the worst things do.

Summary
A month after a brutal Fourth of July shift and a quiet fallout with Garcia, Trinity Santos does what she does best, throws herself into work and tries not to think about anything else.
Then a burn patient with dark red hair and an easy smile walks into her ER.
At first, the flirting feels harmless. The chance encounters feel like coincidence.
The problem is… she keeps showing up.

Summary
Santos smiles. “You know, I meant what I said.”
“What’s that?”
Santos turns her head to meet Garcia’s heavy gaze. “I think you might kill me.”
Garcia glances down to her jaw and then to her lips before coming back to Santos’ eyes.
“I think you might kill me first."A simple apology leads to mind-blowing sex as Santos and Garcia become obsessed with getting each other off. Part smut, part character study, part Santos growing, and healing, and experiencing all the pain and joy of letting herself be known.
