An old foe from Harry's past involves Chris and Rita in his plot for revenge. Romance. Crime. Action. Posted in two chapters because of length. (Two additional stories located in the Silk/XF crossover forum.)

A brand new 2019 story based on a challenge from D of the DA's office. The challenge: A pre-relationship one-shot story about Chris and Rita at a masquerade party. Just to make it more interesting, she wanted them to be clueless about each other's identity. Set in Season 3 - Halloween 1993. This is not a Classic Moment.

A dead body in the restroom of the PB bus depot interrupts a quiet weekend off, and puts Chris and Rita on a collision course with the DEA. Crime/Romance/Angst and a bit of mature content, too. It's what I do. (Two additional new stories posted in Silk/XF crossover archive.)

A legend of the Palm Beach PD is set to retire. Rita enlists Chris' help as she prepares to reunite with the officer she hasn't seen in twenty-four years, but who came to her rescue during events that changed her life forever. A pre-relationship short story, set 3rd Season.

A special New Year's Eve party with an unexpected cast of characters and a romantic surprise. In the Classic Moments timeline, this falls after Party Favors and before Shadows of Remembrance. Some adult content.

How will Rita deal with Chris's first infidelity since their marriage?

Rita gets roped into babysitting Rikki's son, only to have Chris show up at Rikki's for a date

An upcoming birthday and a difficult case leave Rita in a strange mood and Chris very worried. Crime! Romance! Angst! And hopefully a little laughter too. Chris and Rita are already engaged in this story. Mild adult content.

A companion piece to "Exactly What I Needed". In fact, it's the exact same story - just told from Chris' perspective. This piece can be read on its own, but might have more depth if read in conjunction with Rita's side. I think it's interesting to place them side-by-side on the screen and read them together. A big thank-you to resauthor for the challenge.

This story imagines what might have happened between Rita bolting from Harry's office and reuniting with Chris in his apartment during "Glory Days" season 5.

Chris and Rita are invited to a party at the Lipschitz residence unaware of Harry's matchmaking scheme for Rita and his godson. Frannie and friends try to run interference.

At the end of "Mrs. Carlisle" (S04E15), Harry speaks with Rita and confirms that Eric Russell, her boyfriend and a former cop, was not guilty of any wrong-doing during his time in New York City. The episode concludes with Rita going to Eric's apartment and finding it empty. This short piece is my idea of what could have happened after the credits rolled.

An alternate version of The Last Kiss Goodnight. This story is guaranteed safe for anyone who inhabits the land of denial. Chris and Rita will ALWAYS be together and in love in my stories.

A continuation of Passages in Truth. This short story takes place the morning after Chris and Rita's first night together.

A continuation of Passages in Love. Rita tries to ignore the blossoming romance between herself and her partner, but Chris has come to a decision and will not be deterred.

Rita anxiously awaits Chris' return from Boston unsure of how his visit with Jillian will affect their lives, both personally and professionally. Canon and the show runner's story bible have been thrown out the window. This story takes a few plot points and facts from the episode Partners: Part 1 and throws them in a blender. Dare I even say it? Very mild sexual content.

Sometimes the heart wanders in fantasy - and sometimes the star of that fantasy is the best friend and partner whose trust you would never violate. This story picks up at the end of "Kill Shot." As always (it seems) mild sexual situations and content. P.S. I love Interrogation Room 3 (IR3) with the heat of a thousand suns.

CHAPTER 1: During an investigation into the death of a wealthy business executive, Chris and Rita discover that the man's death was predicted five years earlier by a local psychic. The murder investigation brings Chris into contact with an old college friend. Mild sexual content. CHAPTER 2: Click on link for story wrap up.

Chris and Rita attempt a double date. Rest assured, Jillian and Eric only appear in my stories when I have a creative way to dispense with them.

Boredom during a slow spell at work and an old case file leads to an interesting bet between the partners. Adult themes. Little bit of mild sexual content, lots of romantic tension.

Chris and Rita finish up a lecture at the Palm Beach Police Academy, and field questions from the graduating class of cadets.

Classic Moments, Classic Silk. GH is a pre-relationship story set just a few days before the episode "Cadillac Jack."

In "Glory Days" (S05E10), Harry - with an assist from his wife - confronts Chris and Rita about their romantic relationship. This short piece is my take on the details behind that discovery.

Previously, on Silk Stalkings: "The Last Kiss Goodnight." But, how shocking would it have been if "Dead Asleep" had opened with Rita being the one in the hospital?

A one-shot of sheer defiance...Chris Lorenzo enjoying the bedtime routine with his ten-month-old daughter.
