Summary
Set during Lisa’s first episode in the Rovers in ‘civvies’ (aka something other than what she wears to work) with a different ending. Forgive me if anything is factually incorrect – it’s been quite a while since I watched Corrie – I’m only back in on it in the last 3 months. All spelling and grammar mistakes are mine and none of these characters belong to me!

Summary
The cobbles are covered in ashes. The Rovers is boarded up. There's no gossip to be heard in Roy's Rolls. Carla Connor's only escape from this grim landscape is the beloved books she must hide from the authorities. She's stayed safe, so far. But she's not finding it quite so easy to hide her feelings from a keen-eyed detective who is hot on her trail.

Summary
Frankly, this was an idea that wouldn't leave me alone so I had to write it. Carla and Lisa spend the night together and that brings up more than one thing that they maybe need to talk about.
More thoughts, more feelings, but this time with more nudity. Win/win for those of you brave enough to venture in.

Just a word of warning, this is very much PWP and so, if that isn't your thing, or you're looking for a cute fluffy romance, scroll on past!
