Life is all about perception...
Marisa
There's nothing happening in this investigation. No matter how I try to change my perception about these victims, we have no leads. My strategy of tolerating my new partner is easier said than done. I've been doing my best to work with Ryan, and I'm confident I'll stop lusting after the sexy jerk sooner or later. But the news that he'll be my boss? That's too much to handle.
Everything is changing. My family, my job, my willingness to open up and lower my guard for a man I have no business wanting. Suddenly, it doesn't seem like my perspective matters when life is shifting this fast.
All I can do is try to balance my time between the unsolved case that seems identical to a new one. But in the end, it seems like a constant struggle to resist the man who is more off-limits and forbidden than before. It's one thing to lust after my coworker, but it's a whole different headache to realize he'll soon be in charge.
Ryan
There's something strange about these cases that remain unsolved. While one murder is closed, two more stay unanswered, enigmas that frustrate me as I try to acclimate to this new town. My reservations about Marisa won't disappear, but as I learn to adjust to how she finds her clues and works on her cases, I can't stick with this idea that she doesn't belong in my life in any other way.
I swore off women, but this smart and sassy detective is in my life. She doesn't give up, dedicated to the job despite her family drama. But whenever I think about how else we could share our time and energy, I'm left with filthy thoughts I shouldn't have.
We'll never see eye to eye. She is destined to face me in every argument, and I'm persistent about sticking to a professional relationship, no matter how much I'm drawn to her. It's one thing to forge ahead and hunt down a person of interest in these homicides, but it's an entirely separate challenge to admit mixing business with pleasure has never been better.
