Why This Must Be Read: Two missing scenes that should have been there. They are every shipper's dream coming true. Adorable and yet so very realistic.

Special Rec: 44/48

Why This Must Be Read: Jess finally gets to show that she is not made of sugar. Surviving on the other side of an anomaly ain't a walk in the park and [livejournal.com profile] little_profiler makes you feel like you are there with Jess. An incredible story. I can only recommend her other works as well.

Rating/Warning(s): T
Genre: Romance/Humor
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 36/48

Why This Must Be Read: It's really so adorable to see Eliot noticing all those small (and weird) things about Parker and then how he goes about making her happy. Those moments build up their relationship in quite a believeable way and the last chapter is the true highlight.

Why This Must Be Read: It starts out with Parker/Hardison but that one moment when it all changes is making your skin tingle and your brain melt. Seriously.

Rating/Warning(s): R
Genre: Romance
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 27/48

Why This Must Be Read: The story how Logan finds out about Marie's ability to control her mutation. Everything, from the setting to the little moments in-between, is wrapped in such a beautiful package of writing - it's truly a masterpiece.

Pairing: Rogue/Wolverine
Fic Title: Two Weeks
Author: September

Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: Shipper
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 28/48

Why This Must Be Read: September's Marie is one of the best out there. She doesn't only feel lost, she is also adrift in the dark and it's so sad to read about it. The ending however make up for it. As does the sequel Echoes (NC-17).

Why This Must Be Read: There is a turning point in their partnership and of course Lynley buggers it up. Havers is unsure of his true motive and the way Lynley finally comes to his senses are written perfectly, so very in-character.

Rating/Warning(s): M
Genre: Romance/Drama
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 15/48

Why This Must Be Read: It's the perfect story. The beginning, the middle and the ending. It's Julie and Tim, their ups and downs, lots of steamy make-out sessions - pretty much everything a Julie/Tim shipper wants. My absolute favourite of this pairing.

Why This Must Be Read: Told from Julie's POV, it's about how Tim is driving her crazy after leaving Lyla for good. It's incredible funny to read southern_cross's Julie, especially when Tim is near.

Rating/Warning(s): PG (demons, angst)
Genre: Angst-ish
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 14/48

Why This Must Be Read: I always thought there had happened something between Will and Lilith in the cave and [livejournal.com profile] rhyo has created the perfect background story for them. Full of angst with a smidge of dominating romance.

Special Rec: 15/48

Why This Must Be Read: Venus Smurf gives Lilith such a human side, it actually makes the movie pale in comparison. In talking to the Prefect, Lilith can finally voice all the fears she has bottled up inside, especially the fear to lose William and his trust.

Pairing: Nicky Parsons/Jason Bourne
Fic Title: Puzzle of Possibilities
Author: Tarafina
Link: FF.Net
Rating/Warning(s): M
Genre: Angst/Romance
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 13/48

Why This Must Be Read: Set during/after The Bourne Ultimatum, we find Jason following Nicky, though he isn't sure why until a memory surfaces that turns his world upside down. The memory is so carefree and happy (as much as it can be under the circumstances) and when he confronts her, it all comes back. It's heartbreaking to read how he yearns for something he never knew he had lost and how Nicky more or less gave up after he 'forgot'. The ending though makes up for all the angst.

Pairing: Brenda Leigh Johnson/Andy Flynn
Fic Title: Two Steps Forward, One Step Back
Author: [livejournal.com profile] allaire
Link: LiveJournal | AO3
Rating/Warning(s): PG (het and pre-het)
Genre: Romance/Angst/UST/Friendship
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 10/48

Why This Must Be Read: [livejournal.com profile] allaire wrote 37 drabbles for the Christmax calendar 2010 and each fleshes out canon by way of exploring a perceived Brenda & Andy-shippy subtext as the author states. She gives with a few sentences a completely different picture of the scenes and voices Flynn's and Brenda's inner thoughts so in-character, that - after reading all 37 - one could start to think that the show has a subtle F/B undertone.

Pairing: Brenda Leigh Johnson/Andy Flynn
Fic Title: Road to Nowhere (Or, What Happens in Tahiti...)
Author: [livejournal.com profile] abracax
Link: AO3 | FF.Net
Rating/Warning(s): K+
Genre: Friendship (with hints at Romance)
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 11/48

Why This Must Be Read: [livejournal.com profile] abracax wrote this story for a picture challenge at the Closer Forum and it is the first story I ever read for this pairing. It is also responsible for making me ship them. She did such a brilliant job, creating a whole story around a single picture, with sarcastic Flynn and annoyed Brenda (there are no sweets. It's like hell.) that somehow manage to find common ground through a tiny cactus flower.

Pairing: Grace Andrews/John Ryder
Fic Title: The Living
Author: [livejournal.com profile] cidercupcakes
Link: LiveJournal | AO3
Rating/Warning(s): NC-17 (Explicit, Het, Zombies, Bad Language)
Genre: Horror/Action(/Romance)
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 9/48

Why This Must Be Read: Unlikely as it seems, zombies kind of fit into the setting of The Hitcher. On the run from the undead, John and Grace develop a 'relationship' that, in the light of their situation, is almost normal. [livejournal.com profile] cidercupcakes keeps the character, they don't suddenly turn all lovely dovely, and that is exactly what makes this story worthwhile. My favourite parts are the ones where Grace struggles with herself and in the end decides to give in to John. More or less.

Rating/Warning(s): T
Genre: Supernatural/Romance

Special Rec: 7/48

Why This Must Be Read: UglyTruth explores the possibility of Alison staying alive and being held in her father's mansion with Frankie as her bodyguard. She doesn't make it easy for him, clings to her humanity, struggles with her vampire side, and that is one of the reasons I truly love this story. The intense chemistry between Frankie and Alison is an added bonus.

Why This Must Be Read: After A Long Time Travelling Away from Home [livejournal.com profile] lindentree has started writing another story for this pairing. It's full of action and adventure, snark and humour, and the strange beauty of the relationship between the two characters.

Rating/Warning(s): K+

Special Rec: 5/48

Why This Must Be Read: This pairing is one of those 'blink and you will miss it' ones. The only real interaction they have is in this one moment but one could write a whole book about what Vasquez meant when she said those words. blueflamefreak did a really great job giving them a background that's believeable and still in-character. I grin everytime I imagine Vasquez as a girl, scowling because he pulled her hair. <3

Rating/Warning(s): PG (heavily implied past Trudy/Quaritch)
Genre: Drama

Special Rec: 4/48

Why This Must Be Read: Even though Trudy and Quaritch don't have any real screen time, I truly liked the idea of what-if and their interaction behind the curtain. [livejournal.com profile] ashen_key gives, IMO, the best (and only) version of what-if and actually makes the Trudy/Quaritch tension work.

Rating/Warning(s): R
Genre: Romance/Angst
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 3/48

Why This Must Be Read: It's the first story of PB I ever read, before I even watched the show, and the chemistry/tension between Lincoln and Sara caught me right away. It's the way they struggle to keep their distance, to not give in, that fascinates me. And in the end they are far to similar, and the addiction to great to resist.

Fic Title: Fitting
Author: Denaliyasha

Rating/Warning(s): T
Genre: Romance/Fluff
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 1/48

Why This Must Be Read: This story is bitter and sweet at the same time. All those moments (milestones) in their relationship have one thing in common and it's just so them. Plus the fluffy ending is a real treat.

Fic Title: Where Do Broken Hearts Go
Author: Telkena
Link: SJ Always-Forever
Rating/Warning(s): M (Adult Themes, BDSM, Graphic Sex, Language, NonConsent/Reluctance)
Genre: Romance
WIP?: N
Special Rec: 2/48

Why This Must Be Read: If you're looking for really, really good Jack/Sam smut, Telkena is the one you should read. I had a hard time deciding but in the end this one won. It's an AU version of "Children of the Gods" with Jack/Sam sex but written so brilliantly, it actually works for these two. It's not PWP, far from it, but has the story arc twisted to fit its own storyline. A must read.
