Summary
“Can’t believe you’re making your bird sleep on the sofa,” Carla mutters to Ben once she’s swallowed a mouthful. “I don’t even date and even I know that’s a huge red flag, baby bro.”
“Nobody’s sleeping on the sofa,” Johnny says firmly. “Lisa, you can share with Carla whilst you’re here.”
Lisa’s eyes turn to the size of saucers and she starts shaking her head in protest. “Oh, no, I don’t think that’d be—”
“What’s wrong with Carla?” Rob teases.
“We’ve all been trying to figure that one out for years, mate,” Ben quips before anyone else can get a word in.

Summary
"Oh, please tell me you haven’t had an argument with your mother in front of the whole family".
"Worse" Lisa muttered, suddenly looking very interested in the floor. "I lied".
"You? Detective Sergeant Lisa Swain, pillar of truth and justice, told a fib? Colour me intrigued. What did you say?"
"I told them I was already dating someone."
Carla let out a sharp bark of laughter. "No! Brilliant. Who’s the lucky imaginary lady?"
"Mum went into absolute overdrive. She didn't even pause for breath. She immediately declared that if I’ve been seeing someone, they have to come on the family holiday. I started panicking, trying to make up excuses – said she was busy, said she hated the beach, said she had a terrible phobia of flying. But they wouldn't have it. Mum was relentless. She demanded to know her name".
"And? What did you tell her?”
"I said Carla"

Summary
As Carla and Lisa’s two worlds overlap, moments of warmth and humour sit alongside difficult truths, forcing both of them to confront what it means to trust someone with the parts of themselves they usually keep hidden. It’s a story about vulnerability, chosen family, and the courage it takes to believe that love can exist alongside imperfection — and it can flourish.
