Summary
'God, Jamie, I'm your lawyer', Dani sighs, finishing the rest of her drink in one go. She slides her glass towards Jamie who she fills it again with a wide grin on her face.
'I really wish you weren't though', Jamie says, her voice heavy with humour. Dani sits down on one of the stools beside the counter, playing with the stem of the glass.
'I know, I'm the worst. I lost the last two cases and it still nags on me and I know I could've done better and now I am your public defender and I really don't want to mess things up and-'
'No, Dani, it's not that.'
[Public defender Dani Clayton gets assigned a new case: Jamie Taylor. Matter: drug possession.]

Summary
(AU) Jamie finds herself flirting with the pizza delivery girl, Dani. After a couple of hangouts, Jamie finds out that Dani moved to England with a broken heart and while she's not looking to get caught up in anything serious, she is looking for someone she can have fun with, no strings attached. Turns out, Jamie and Dani feel the exact same way, until one of them doesn't.
I really just wanted to write a fic that I could include a bit of everything in, y'know? Some drama, angst, jealousy, smut, fluff and loads of humour.

Summary
“The woman was nonchalant with that little smirk on her face, hooked at one end in such a way that it kindled a glimmer in those eyes that Dani could never miss nor forget. Her gait was no faster than a saunter, exhausted yet collected as she trudged up the steps, hand lax against the railing. Really, she was simple. There’s nothing that remarkable about a tired woman walking up the stairs, but it shocked Dani to her core.”
OR
Dani Clayton and Jamie Taylor are two strangers who live in the same building. One morning, they make eye contact, and it ignites a spark between them that grows over the days that follow.
