Investigations into a smuggling operation lead Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth to a hotel on a beautiful resort island. To catch their smuggler they have to stay there undercover ― as a couple?? The close quarters draw ~unnecessary feelings~ to the surface for the both of them, and just as the investigation starts going smoothly, someone gets murdered! What awaits them at the other end of their weekend getaway? Will they be able to accept the truths that are staring them right in the face? And can Larry finally catch a break?

[Notes: I can’t describe how much I love this one. I have it all formatted on my computer so that the second that final chapter comes out, I can print it all out so I can actually hold it in my hands. there’s so many little things to love. currently updates weekly, meaning this slow burn’s almost finished!]
