A hyper-independent artist makes her awkward attempt at love when she asks to sketch her park crush, who happens to be Dr. Spencer Reid. What ensues next is the worst night of her life and the life-wrecking aftermath with a romance that has barely even budded. Her wild dreams of artistic fame and fear of love lead to a whirlwind of a story about the messiness of life, mental health, and the meaning of success, love, and friendship.
A tender but messy slow-burn.

Thread and Flame
She survived fire. He survived silence. Together, they learn how to breathe again. When profiler Melinda Anderson joins the BAU, she's not just bringing top-tier instincts-she's carrying the scars of a life she swore she'd buried. Spencer Reid sees through her walls, not because he's trying to, but because he knows what it means to carry too much and say too little. As they unravel a brutal case of stitched mouths and stolen confessions, Melinda is forced to confront a past she thought was over-and a killer who sees her as the final piece. But the fire doesn't claim her. It refines her. And in the aftermath, Spencer may be the only one who knows how to hold her heart without burning himself. Slow burn. Case-heavy. Soul-deep. A story of survival, obsession, and falling in love one heartbeat at a time.Complete

Uncharted Profiles 18+
When Y/N steps into the BAU as the newest recruit, she expects long nights, tough cases, and the pressure of proving herself. What she doesn't expect is Dr. Spencer Reid-the team's resident genius with a razor-sharp memory and an even sharper tongue. From day one, Spencer makes it clear he doesn't think she belongs. He's snarky, dismissive, and far too good at pointing out her mistakes. To him, she's an unwelcome distraction in a world where there's no room for error. To her, he's insufferable and brilliant, yes, but also infuriating. But as the cases grow darker and the danger more real, Y/N and Spencer are forced to rely on each other. Between late-night stakeouts, heated arguments, and the quiet moments that slip through the cracks, the line between rivalry and something far more complicated begins to blur. He's the last person she thought she'd fall for. She's the one person he never saw coming. And sometimes, the hardest mystery to solve is the one written in your own heart.Complete
