Summary
“Ever felt like you're living under a microscope, trapped in a petri dish, bound to keep being slapped in the face by your past?” Carla Connor, businesswoman, factory owner, independent woman needed space. Space from the scrutiny that came with living your life out loud on Coronation Street.
Detective Sergeant Lisa Swain needed help. Help to make ends meet and not further break her daughter's heart by having to insist on a house move away from the only home she had ever known, the one which contained all the memories of her late mum, Becky. The same Becky who was the reason Lisa was up to her eyeballs in debt, having forged Lisa's signature and borrowed significant amounts of money against the house before her death. In desperation, Lisa advertises the spare room to rent out, a last ditch attempt to avoid what seemed inevitable.
When Carla places a call to enquire about the room, could it mark the beginning of something both of them never knew they needed?

Summary
Updating this summary since it's been a while since this was started! Set around 2024 when Betsy was being a toerag blackmailing Joel Deering and Carla Connor, Lisa Swain was only just beginning to know Carla and Carla was still married to Peter. Becky in this is dead and will remain so but it was also started before we'd even see a pic so she's the wife Lisa was originally grieving, the supportive, caring, loving one who she and Betsy thought the world of (she's also blonde & Betsy's biological mother in this story). Long chapters!
When Betsy fails to turn up for work one morning, Carla is prepared to tear a strip off her and her mum for letting her down. But Lisa was unaware of her daughter's absence, sparking a hunt for the errant teen during which secrets become known. Where is Betsy? Why was she seen arguing with Joel Deering? And will Carla's confession lead to her enjoying a stint at His Majesty's pleasure?
