Finding Sky by Susan O'Brien

She’s a parent. She’s (almost) a P.I. No one gets on your case like mom.

Suburban widow and P.I. in training Nicki Valentine can barely keep track of her two kids, never mind anyone else. But when her best friend’s adoption plan is jeopardized by the young birth mother’s disappearance, Nicki is persuaded to help. Nearly everyone else believes the teenager ran away, but Nicki trusts her BFF’s judgment, and the feeling is mutual.

The case leads where few moms go (teen parties, gang shootings) and places they can’t avoid (preschool parties, OB-GYNs’ offices). Nicki has everything to lose and much to gain — including the attention of her unnervingly hot P.I. instructor. Thankfully, Nicki is armed with her pesky conscience, occasional babysitters, a fully stocked minivan, and nature’s best defense system: women’s intuition.

Xav learns how to say "I love you" in Italian and Crystal is flattered even if he didn't say it right.

Xav and Crystal walking through Italy, Xav takes off Crystal's wellies, puts them on, makes her hold his Timberlands and picks her up, walking her through a puddle.

Xav unironically giving Sky piggy backs when she can't reach something.

"Trace, please tell your brother that his life connection to me is not an excuse to be a dick all the time."

Crystal and Xav always have petty arguments that end with Xav cooking Crystal spaghetti. She can't stay mad at him for long.

"Crystal, please stop kicking me telepathically."

Xav always calling privilege of the oldest, when in reality he's only about 12 hours older than Crystal.

Crystal doing Phoenix's hair, "What do you mean I can't design your wedding dress?!"

Xav trying to get Crystal to wear hoodies, but she just keeps refusing. He turns to Victor for help, but Victor refuses. It's never revealed whether he said no because it was beneath him or because Crystal's defenses best his manipulation.

When Xav gets angry, he goes silent. Crystal counteracts this by also going silent, effectively guilt-tripping him into talking. It's very effective.

When Crystal gets mad, Xav will gently massage her hand. His presence and his healing gift combined always calm her down.

"Zed, can you not just talk to her? My delicate soulfinder will definitely be excused if you make her vomit all over you, you know." Xav telling Zed off for forgetting to use Crystal's telepathy.

Xav forcing Yves to calculate the rarity of Crystal's gift, just so he can brag to everyone that his soulfinder has the rarest, most saught after savant gift.

Crystal being absolutely terrified of Karla's energy for at least a week, until Xav makes them go shopping together. Congratulations, Xav, Crystal is now more terrified of your mother.

Xav accidentally telling Crystal he's going to propose to her, because Misty is in the room with them.

Xav running his fingers through Crystal's hair while watching a movie, accidentally getting his fingers stuck and spoiling the movie because everyone can hear him and Crystal struggling to unloop every single curl from his fingers.

Every April Fools, everyone wakes up early in anticipation of Crystal's loud "What the FUCK Xav". Later that day, Crystal will have probably sewn all of his belts together or shipped his Timberlands off to England with her parents. She always comes out on top.

Xav and Crystal alternating who's the big and little spoon when they cuddle on an armchair.

Crystal is ill and wrapped up in a blanket with a mug of hot chocolate in her hands. Xav kisses her forehead and heals her, but not before catching it off her. While he's ill and wrapped up in blankets, Crystal lectures him about thinking of his own health for once.
