Summary
Reverse age gap | JJ/Emily | Undercover
Jennifer Jareau built a legend taking down men who thought they were untouchable. She runs her sex crimes unit the way she runs her life: total control, nothing to lose, no apologies.
Then Emily Prentiss transfers in from Interpol — a blown operation trailing her like smoke — and JJ does the math and calls her a liability.
Emily disagrees.
She speaks the languages no one else does. She moves through rooms full of dangerous men like she was raised in them, because she was. And she's the only way inside Harmon's world — the trafficker who slipped JJ's biggest case. When JJ finally deploys her, she tells herself the hostess role is the safe one.
She's wrong about that. She's wrong about a lot of things where Emily is concerned.

Summary
(title is derived from an e.e. cummings poem )
JJ’s world shifted the moment two thin lines appeared on the pregnancy test. Ever since then? Chaos.
In between swollen ankles and ridiculously early mornings spent at the foot of the toilet, Will left. He left quietly, without a fuss. No big argument. No explanation. He was there one week, then gone the next. He changed his number and left JJ a lousy, half-assed note. JJ didn’t have time to process it, too busy folding onesies and tending to a crying infant.
So, when Emily Prentiss decided to give her a hand, it seemed foolish to decline. Not when she hadn’t slept in days. Not when her apartment was littered with toys and bottles scattered across the kitchen.
JJ didn’t even realize when her eyes started softening when she looked at Emily. She didn’t realize when her heart made that jump around Emily. But seeing Emily Prentiss—usually sharp and composed —rock her baby with hands so gentle it made JJ hold her breath…it did things to her.
It did things to Emily too.

Summary
What happened in Paris was meant to stay there. It was a glimpse into another life, one that only ever brought them pain.
Over fifteen years later, Emily is being left behind. Lives are built, and she isn't a part of them. The mask she wears has slipped, her mortality is catching up to her, and it's easier to turn her back than to stand there and watch it.
JJ is still married. She shouldn't be. Her marriage has become a contract that she's too tired to leave.
With Emily pressing buttons, and JJ already halfway out the door, love, need, and anger rear their heads.
What follows is a series of terrible decisions, a vicious spiral they can't seem to escape, and a future neither of them dared to dream of.
