Fandom Category: Doctor Who
Pairing: Martha Jones/Doctor
Fic Title: 18, Goshawk Avenue
Author: Flaignhan
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3585836/1/18_Goshawk_Avenue
Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Romance, Friendship, Humor
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 22 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: Author's summary:Mr and Mrs Jones, they had called themselves. Naturally, the neighbours had begun to gossip. There are a lot of well written fics about the time Martha and the Doctor spent in 1969. I recently read this one and loved it! We get to see what the neighbors thought of the newest addition to the neighborhood. It is a sweet and funny take on Martha and the Doctor's sojorn in 1969 and how that could have changed things between them.

Fandom Category: Silence of the Lambs
Pairing: Clarice Starling/Hannibal Lecter
Fic Title: Breaking Free
Author: BookishGal
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7464446/1/Breaking_Free
Rating/Warning(s): Mature/mentions past cannibalism, murder, torture
Genre: Drama, Violence, Angst, Romance
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 20 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: Author's summary: Incarceration is merely a minor inconvenience when Hannibal Lecter begins playing a delicate game with Clarice Starling. This is a very unusally dark story for me to read, especially considering the pairing. But the author does a beautiful job of just drawing you into a graceful and yet strangely inevitable dance between Hannibal and Clarice. It is a subtle story that is told from both pov's which is beautiful because we get to see how Clarice and Hannibal see each other and how they see their relationship. But what I really love about it is the fact that Clarice is not a victim, she is a strong woman who makes her own decisions and her own choices. I can't really get into to many specifics as it would give away to much but give this story a chance you won't regret it.

Fandom Category: Cinderella (1950)
Pairing: Cinderella/Prince Charming
Fic Title: Ex Tenebris, Lux
Author: afterandalasia
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/248533
Rating/Warning(s): Teen/Abuse aftermath, Miscarriage, Mentions past emotional and physical abuse
Genre: Drama, Recovery, Depression
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 18 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: Author's summary: When you have lived in the dark, how can you learn to come to the light? When you have been taught evil, how can you teach good? Some things never leave us, and Cinderella fights to escape the ghosts of her past so that she can offer hope to her family. The author does such a great job of showing how difficult it is for Cinderella to adjust to being a wife and eventually a mother. It is a heartbreaking journey she goes on but also a hopeful one.

Fandom Category: Miss. Pettigrew Lives for a Day
Pairing: Guinevere Pettigrew/Joe Bloomfield
Fic Title: The Most Important Meal
Author: Dira Sudis
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/143026
Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Romance
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 16 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: Joe takes Guinevere to the breakfast that was promised at the end of the movie. This reads like a perfect continuation of the movie. Both Guinevere and Joe are delightfully in character. A short but lovely story, that allows you to spend time with these two sweethearts for a little bit longer.

Fandom Category: Ivanhoe
Pairing: Rebecca of York/Brian de Bois-Guilbert
Fic Title: Deus Vult
Author: hereswith
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1679648/1/
Rating/Warning(s): Teen
Genre: Romance, Drama
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 14 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: Author's summary: What if Rebecca of York had not refused when Brian de Bois-Guilbert arranged her escape from Templestowe? Rebecca is my favorite character in Ivanhoe and the author really does a great job with her character in this au story. I love the interaction between Brian and Rebecca in this story and the subtle changes in their relationship as they journey together. Very well written story, which will make you wish this teeny-tiny fandom was a lot bigger.

Fandom Category: Life
Pairing: Dani Reese/Charlie Crews
Fic Title: Precession
Author: Spatz
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/299313
Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Romance
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 11 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: This story takes place after the series finale. Dani ends up back at work before Crews and gets partnered up with Seevers. I really enjoyed Dani's interaction with Seevers and the slow realization of her feelings for Crews. The voices in this story are perfectly done and it makes me miss this show something awful.

Fandom Category: Due South
Pairing: Margaret Thatcher/Ray Kowalski
Fic Title: Love Undercover
Author: TanyaReed
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/492388/chapters/860488
Rating/Warning(s): PG/Violence
Genre: Romance, Action
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 9 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: I loooooove the trope "going undercover as a couple" The author does a great job of bring Meg and Ray from mere acquintences to two people who are falling in love with each other. The case is very intriguing and I love all the little moments between the two of them as they get to know each other better. A really well done story! :D

Fandom Category: Annie
Pairing: Grace Farrell/Oliver Warbucks
Fic Title: Maybe
Author: erm31323
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7276148/1/bMaybe_b
Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Romance, Angst
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 7 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: This story takes place between Annie's kidnapping and the celebration at the end of the movie. This is a great very well-written tale. The author does a delightful job of making this story feel real and fleshes out the characters in a believeable way. Really enjoyed how both Oliver and Grace are their own worst enemies in this story, which gives the story just enough conflict without it being tedious. But don't worry they eventually figure it out!

Fandom Category: Star Trek (reboot)
Pairing: Amanda Grayson/Sarek
Fic Title: Vulcan in Shining Armour
Author: isadore13
Link: http://archiveofourown.org/works/147207
Rating/Warning(s): PG/Sexual Harassment
Genre: Drama, Romance
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 5 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: Amanda's boss is a creeper and Sarek...well the title really says it all. This was a delightful tale of how Amanda and Sarek may have met. Amanda is a special ed teacher, who loves her work. One day a delegation of Vulcans tour the school and Sarek takes an interest in Ms. Grayson.

Fandom Category: Forever Knight
Pairing: Natalie Lambert/Nick Knight
Fic Title: Coming Home
Author: Mary Combs
Link:http://home.earthlink.net/~combsmfk/Coming%20Home.htm
Rating/Warning(s): PG/ Vampirism
Genre: Romance, hurt/comfort, supernatural
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 2 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: This story is the happy ending I have always wanted for this traditonally tragic pairing. Coming Home starts after the series finale, Nick returns and Natalie is waiting. I loved how determined Natalie is to take care of a very weakened Nick and how resolved she is about how this time it will all be different between the two of them. Her strength of will, and the depth of their love see them through, to their earned happy ending! :D

Fandom Category: Forever Knight
Pairing: Natalie Lambert/Nick Knight
Fic Title: Slippery
Author: Amilyn
Link:http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1441222/1/Slippery#
Rating/Warning(s): PG/ Domestic violence
Genre: Drama, Supernatural
WIP?: No
Special Rec: 3 of 22

Why This Must Be Read: Author's summary:Nick shoved Natalie aside and headed for the door; they were not nearly finished and she'd be damned if she'd let him walk away. This story is so well written, about a very tough subject. Amilyn's story made me take a hard look at some of the darker more dysfunctional aspects of Nick and Natalie's relationship and how it could have all gone horribly wrong. But I think that it also transcends the show in that fact that if you took out the supernatural aspects it reads like an abusive relationship in a downward spiral. Both Nick and Natalie keep repeating the same patterns unable or unwilling to change. As you can tell I loved it. Give it a chance you won't regret it.
