    Summary

    When Carla is hired for Lisa's birthday party, their connection is instant. I can't really describe the plot in more detail than that because honestly, there isn't much of one. It's very smutty. I do apologise. I don't know what's happened to my brain. Maybe it's the weather or the loss of One Night Stand!

    AU - Lisa isn't widowed and doesn't have Betsy. Carla has a slightly different history. And they're both 40.

    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.
