    Summary

    Carla Connor is haunted by the trauma of an abusive past relationship with Cate Henri whose name resurfaces when DS Lisa Swain arrives to investigate Cate’s connection to a possible murder and disappearance case. As Carla is forced to confront painful memories of coercive control, isolation, and emotional abuse through a series of flashbacks, Lisa’s calm and compassionate presence gradually becomes a source of safety and stability in her otherwise chaotic world.

    While helping the investigation, Carla begins forming an intense emotional connection with Lisa, who sees beyond her guarded exterior, and after Lisa rescues a drunken, emotionally overwhelmed Carla and takes her home, it becomes clear that their bond may become the lifeline Carla desperately needs.

    “No I errr, I had to move in the end, im staying at a new place now…its erm its called rhubarb hill hotel…”

    “Rhubarb hill hotel?”

    “Yep… yeah im in the blessing suite.”

    “Well I hope your having a good time, I’m missing ya.”

    “I miss you too bets, so much. But listen darling I'm going to have to go, I told my dad I’d ring him.”

    Lisa’s brain screeched to a halt. Her dad? Carla’s dad was dead. What was Carla talking about?

    Her entire body suddenly electric with dread.

    Carla had just told Betsy she was in danger.

    Canon divergence - what if Carla had snuck in more than just the what3words, what if she’d used their secret code word for danger?

    Summary

    Firstly, Becky did not and will not exist in this fic. Given my other fic is very angst filled and at times heavy, I personally as a writer also needed something happy to write, something positive:

    Lisa and Carla are being set up on a blind date after years of either having no luck or just not putting themselves out there into the dating world.
    When two very different worlds collide, with a little outside help, will these two woman finally give in and let themselves fall in love.
