A case in New York brings you back to confront and forces you to work alongside a childhood friend - Aaron Hotchner. A long time ago, your life was alongside the Hotchners. You grew up with your best friend, Sean, and learned to coexist next to his brother - an expert at ignoring you. Your relationship with him was tumultuous at best. Complicated at worst. It only got worse as the years went by. 

However, encouraged by your respective superiors to collaborate, you try to learn ways to work together amicably, without bringing out the painful past.

The more you get to know this new version of Hotch, the more feelings arise: new and old ones are sparked to life. All while reminiscing on old memories.

Maybe, what you're both doomed to become is not dissimilar to the remaining wasteland of the bombs you're investigating.

(Elevator pitch: As his brother's best friend, you and Hotch grew up together, but a fall out causes you both to hate one another, only to be reunited years later for a case in NYC. )

 childhood friends to enemies to lovers!

The first time Hotch sees you - young, brazen and violent - it's at an old trailer and he's there with Gideon to question you about your father's whereabouts. Someone who the BAU have pegged as their unsub. The second time he sees you - they're back to question the family of an unsub's victim. And you're different: elegant, eloquent and all sharp edges now well-rounded and polished. And married to a billionaire. The third time it's inside the interrogation room, after they find the corpse of a second man looking eerily similar to your missing husband. --- (Elevator pitch: reader may be a serial killer and Hotch is certain you murdered your husband. Chaos and situationships occurr) ---- (this is a slow build - yes they yearn! enemies to fuck buddies to enemies to lovers! - and implied sexual content) so much murder! so much yearning! #147 in enemies to lovers 😌😌 I do not own Criminal minds, the characters and the story!*
