Summary
Brigitte Desjardins has spent years tolerating Josephine Chesterfield’s nonsense with remarkable patience.
Josephine - elegant criminal mastermind, professional liar, and frequent visitor to the Beaumont-sur-Mer commissariat - talks her way past a new desk officer by casually claiming to be Brigitte’s wife.
Unfortunately, the entire station hears her do it.
Now Brigitte is enduring wedding favours in the break room, bridal magazines on her desk, and a staff who believe themselves unbearably hilarious every time they ask after her “wife.”
Josephine, naturally, finds the fallout delightful.
Brigitte has had enough and decides that Josephine should face some consequences for once.
After all, Josephine always rewrites the narrative.
...Perhaps it is time someone returned the favour?

Summary
A misunderstanding when they first meet leads Brigitte to believe that Josephine only wants what Brigitte can offer as a police officer.
For years afterwards, their relationship is carefully confined to something safe and professional.
Until one evening forces both women to confront the truth of their situation...or, rather, what they each believe the truth to be.

Summary
A sequel to 'Fine Lines'.
Accidentally locked in the evidence archive at the commissariat overnight, Josephine and Brigitte are forced to entertain themselves.
Which is difficult, considering the lights are off and the floor is concrete.
But, as previously discovered, you don't need to be somewhere comfortable for something interesting to happen...especially if you've got a lot of feelings you've been keeping to yourself.
And Brigitte has a lot of feelings.
