Aziraphale Fell is a flight attendant who excels at delivering top notch customer service, but when it comes to his relationships outside the aircraft, things tend to crash and burn. After a particularly bumpy breakup, he decides to try a more casual approach to fulfilling his needs on the ground. What he can’t anticipate is that the man of his choosing ends up being a frequent flier on one of his monthly lines.
Anthony Jay Crowley is a London based architect who is working on a project in New York City. The last thing Crowley expects is to bump into the affable steward at the same bar following his flight. Starved for companionship, Crowley cannot help but be drawn to this man's quiet charms.
What was originally intended as a single night of passion soon turns into something more, which leads Aziraphale to wonder if he is headed for an emotional tailspin just as Crowley doubts the sustainability of something long term.
Can these two pilot their relationship through past insecurities and push through the turbulent challenges their current lifestyles present? Or will they release the controls and allow their hearts to fall to pieces?

"Soft-and-rough hands meet rough-and-soft. Her palms are calloused, thick ridges stretching across her palm and each of her fingers, but the back of her hand is soft and smooth. The fingers entwined in hers – shiny black nail polish intersecting with chipped lilac varnish – are warm and unblemished, but the skin on your knuckles is cracked, tiny scratches criss-crossing each other, layered like shadows on a charcoal sketch, brought about by the cold and forgetfulness."

All things considered, it is quite hard to run away properly, when your friends can, quite literally, follow you to the Ends Of The Universe And Back.
This is fairly annoying when your friends' primary motivations for hunting you down seems to be to pretend that Everything's Fine Without Him, Really, ruin your perfectly-sweet, perfectly-quiet happiness with a sudden onset of Relationship Crisis, and to sidle you into playing Therapist when your only qualifications for the role are that you were once (sort of; it's a long story) a God and/or have previously given some Exciting News to a random virgin woman and some shepherds, neither of which are particularly helpful.

Severus’s heart tears itself in two, trying to hold on to Miranda Rose, his reckless American fiancée, while still following Albus’s orders from beyond the grave.
Unfortunately, the more he reveals to Miranda, the less she trusts him. And the harder he clings to the loyalties of the past, the faster his future disappears.

Elara Avery was entering her seventh year of Hogwarts with a broken engagement to a dangerous man, the threat of expulsion held over her head by her extortionist Headmaster, and the expectation that she either be engaged or prepared to join the "family business" by Christmas. All of this because of one fateful night where that idiotic fourth year helped the Dark Lord rise again and inadvertently ruined all of Elara's most well laid plans. With the help of friends new and old, a turncoat potions professor, and a certain devious redhead she might just be able to graduate keeping everyone satisfied...
Or she might just die trying.

As Miranda slowly recovers from her Romanian adventure, Severus struggles to conceal the depth of his feelings for her. A spy can’t afford to fall in love at all, let alone with a woman as bewitching as she is capricious.
But hidden feelings may be the least of their problems. Miranda is partnered with Remus Lupin on his mission to win over the werewolf packs of Great Britain. And Severus is ordered to preform a secret task so terrible, Miranda’s love—and his very soul—may be the cost.

Wars and uprisings had no place or bearing in Andromeda Black's life. Her focus lay within the walls of St. Mungos as a trainee healer, on the path to deeper understanding of wizarding maladies. She'd fought and earned her way here and wasn't going to let a rogue wizard with a penchant for being on the receiving end of curses veer her away. She had a plan, and no time for some silly wizarding war. Right. Right?
