EXCERPT
I thought I was about as excited as I'd ever been for the most wonderful time of the year.
When else would my partner and I get to chase down a robber dressed as Santa?
It was awesome, one for the scrapbook. Vaughn and Santiago taking down a Santa. Felix flying after the guy on foot, me jerking ahead with the car, sirens on, to cut him off. The guy veered, but we knew this town. This was our beat, our patch.
Felix followed without missing a step, and I navigated alleys with quick precision to cut him off at the pass. I could drive when I needed to. The Santa bandit couldn't get by us, not when we were working together. We were in the zone. I cut the sirens so I wouldn't give him any warnings. We'd already called it in.
I jerked to a stop at the end of the alleyway just as Santa-thief zoomed out at top speed and slammed up against the passenger side window, where I normally sat. I swear he squeaked against it as he slid down a few inches, and where was Felix? He should be cuffing the guy right now. I waited a second, then flung myself out of the car, grabbing for my cuffs.
"Freeze!" I told him.
I didn't see Felix.

Felix Navidad
by Hollis Shiloh
My partner, Felix Santiago , tapped his fingers on the wheel of the patrol car. He wasn't looking at me, which probably saved us both some embarrassment.
I'd just told him about my breakup with my long-term boyfriend. Cody and I had been together for almost four years. Three years and six months, but who's counting?
Me. I was counting.
I'd only been teamed up with Felix on the force for not quite three years. It was a hell of a thing to realize this partnership would probably outlast my and Cody's relationship. Felix and I worked well together, no signs of a professional breakup imminent. I could easily see spending the rest of my professional career with this man.
Felix, named by a mother who had obviously not watched The Odd Couple enough to find the name offensive, did not live up to his Unger non-namesake. He was messy and cluttered, dark-eyed and handsome, with the kind of skin tone that always looks just slightly tanned. He was beautiful in that damn, too bad he's straight
way, which was what I thought when I first met him. And then I felt bad because I was in a relationship already, with Cody. But that didn't mean I was blind.
He was beautiful, but I'd gotten used to it, more or less. My mouth didn't go dry around him unless he took off his shirt in front of me or something, and like I said, we worked well together. Everything else sort of goes into the background when you're really in the zone at work, and we bounced ideas off each other well, could really double-team on the job, just like the best of
