Summary
Gotham, present day: After years in the thick of the superhero lifestyle in Blüdhaven, you decide to escape the chaos and start a clean rhythm of normality by returning to your home town. It is then, shortly after you’re hired as Bruce Wayne’s new secretary, that an unexpected incident reveals your boss’ identity as Batman, Gotham’s legendary vigilante. Despite your efforts to ditch the mask, you end up partnering up with the hero when he asks for you help with a case that may change the city’s fate. However, your alliance quickly falls under strain. Is it that you’ve lead two opposite life’s that have crafted your juxtaposed personalities? Maybe it’s the twenty year age gap that doesn’t allow you to see eye to eye? Perhaps it’s his fault for being a self isolating man unhealthily obsessed with justice? Or something else entirely…. A slow burn romance with angst, drama, fluff, action and shameless smut.
