Melinda was never supposed to end up at the BAU. But when her past forces her into the world of serial killers and criminal profiling, she quickly becomes more than just the new recruit-she becomes family. Fierce, funny, and absolutely impossible to ignore, she's a hurricane the team didn't know they needed. Then there's Spencer Reid. Genius. Awkward. Brilliant. Guarded. Until Melinda. What starts as gentle banter turns into unspoken glances, forehead kisses, chaos during briefings, and a relationship that unravels slowly-until it hits like a train. From shared trauma to stolen motel moments and one truly unforgettable "we'll be back in thirty minutes" declaration, Spencer and Melinda rewrite every rule the BAU has ever known about love. In a world built on profiling monsters, sometimes the most unexpected connection is the one that saves you

"The best and most beautiful things in the world... they have to be felt with the heart." I joined the FBI to get to the BAU. CAC was just the step in between. Then Spencer Reid walked in-PhDs, cardigans, and so stupidly attractive it completely derailed my ability to speak like a functioning adult. We were supposed to work one case together. Now I'm pretending I don't notice how brilliant he is. This is fine. Totally fine. I'm being very normal about it. Set during Season 2, Episode 2 ("P911"), this is a slow(ish) friends-to-lovers rewrite where Evelyn Gilroy takes Amanda's place and tries very hard not to fall in love with Spencer Reid.

After joining the BAU, Isla Rafferty soon learns that fighting crime isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially with Spencer Reid around. [word count: approx. 140,000 words] COMPLETED.

Spencer wraps the blanket tighter around us causing me to melt into him further. He sweeps my wet hair over my shoulder while I stare out towards the golden sunset. He plants a kiss on my temple before nuzzling his face into my neck. "Thank you," He whispers. I run my fingers through his soft curls, "For what?" "For showing me life doesn't always have to be so serious," He sighs. "I don't know what I did before you," He mutters, almost like it wasn't for me to hear.

Fuel your heart with adrenaline and desire as Amanda and her fiery rivalry takes a seductive turn in the high-speed world of Formula 1. Get ready for a rollercoaster of passion, power, and forbidden love in this sizzling romance that will leave you breathless. "So, Ferrari hired a woman mechanic, huh?" he sneered, his words laced with skepticism. "Do you really think we can win with you handling the car? Can you even put the wheels on straight?" - MATURE CONTENT -

When speed meets serendipity, can love and friendship mend the wounds of the past? Luise Leclerc - 20 year old Monegasque figure skater who still struggles with her trauma from the past and thinks that no one could ever love her. Lando Norris - 22 year old British Formula One driver on the rise to becoming one of the Greats. Thinking that he would never find the true love like his friends. When the two meet for the first time, something seems to have sparked inside them. However, love is not only love, it is connected with trusting each other, giving each other support and also going through the bad times with them. Can Luise put the past behind her and get romantically involved with the loving, romantic and trustworthy Lando Norris? And does Lando manage to get together with her despite all the ups and downs? I would like to point out that this is just a fictional story and the character traits of the drivers are made up. Also, I do not want to attack anyone, neither the drivers nor you as readers with that. It's not my intention to sexualize the drivers, I know that they have their own lives and all what happens in the story will not occur in real life. I write only for fun, to improve my own writing and to forget my own problems. Please remember that! And now enjoy!

They met at a Charity event. She came from nothing, he has everything. Can they make it work? Will their different worlds, bring it all down? It's based in the 2022 season but I've had to change a few things for the storyline etc to fit. Any chapters that are numbered are present so one, two etc. Any that are titled such as I need your help are flashback chapters

Mia moves to a new city where she meets Lando, who shows her a whole new world. But is she ready for a new world? And does she even want it? (Also fun to read for non-F1 fans :))
