Summary
Carla Connor is haunted by the trauma of an abusive past relationship with Cate Henri whose name resurfaces when DS Lisa Swain arrives to investigate Cate’s connection to a possible murder and disappearance case. As Carla is forced to confront painful memories of coercive control, isolation, and emotional abuse through a series of flashbacks, Lisa’s calm and compassionate presence gradually becomes a source of safety and stability in her otherwise chaotic world.
While helping the investigation, Carla begins forming an intense emotional connection with Lisa, who sees beyond her guarded exterior, and after Lisa rescues a drunken, emotionally overwhelmed Carla and takes her home, it becomes clear that their bond may become the lifeline Carla desperately needs.

The things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect.
Or:
Another Swarla affair fic in which they are both morally questionable but they’re soulmates so it’s probably okay

Summary
Happily married to Peter, Carla gets a huge shock when she bumps into an ex she has never told anyone about. As old feelings resurface, did they ever truly go away in the first place...?
Set during the Stephen Reid storyline (although I have played around with the dates ever so slightly), when Carla and Lisa had their first scenes together on the show.

Summary
When Lisa and Carla have an ill advised one night stand, they put it down to a drunken mistake and decide never to see each other again. What they don't expect is to turn up in each other's lives within days. Not set within the current storyline at all. Carla is still with Peter and I've played around with their lives quite a bit. Becky is alive!
