Central London, Baker Street.
Y/n Baxter's life so far could be described as tumultuous.
From her top job at Scotland Yard to her history lurking around every corner, and each of the unbelievable cases she takes on along with her two neighours.
The enigmatic detective in 221B won't make it any easier.
Deadly cases? Easy
Mass murderers? No sweat
Moriarty? So what?
Could sentiments be more dangerous than any of the trio's adventures?
Are sentiments always really found on the losing side?

I don't own any of the characters except for Y/n, they belong to the works of Arthur Conan Doyle. However some of the plot and certain characters are created by me and belong to me.

The original stories belong to Arthur Conan Doyle. A website called DreamWidth, with a user named @arianedvere is where I copy or get some inspiration from when writing these chapters. - The only thing I own is the female character used and the slight changes that do not follow the original storyline of the BBC series.Complete

It Started With Stealing | Sherlock Holmes
Elizabeth Parrish is a thief but not just any thief - She is Moriarty's personal thief. She made a deal with a devil and she enjoyed it: the thrill, the challenge, the money. Every job he gave her left her on a high that she couldn't get enough of. She's never been caught before either. But when a job goes wrong, Elizabeth is left with a choice: Help Sherlock & John hunt down Moriarty and potentially get a clean slate afterwards or be locked away in prison for the rest of her life for attempting to steal top-secret government files. Which will she choose? And will her choice help her win or lose the game? DISCLAIMER: I do not own BBC Sherlock or any characters/plotlines related to/used in the show. What I do own is Elizabeth Parrish, her story and her associates. Also some crimes (not that I committed them myself lmao). Also, the picture on the cover isn't mine so credits to whoever made that picture - I merely put a title on it. :) Started: Feb 2019 Finished: May 2021 #1 in The Reichenbach Fall - 10/06/2020 #1 in The Great Game - 20/06/2020 #3 in Sherlock Holmes - 27/06/2020 #1 in Benedict Cumberbatch 06/07/2020 ❤❤❤ #1 in Irene Adler - 16/07/2020 #1 in Sherlock BBC - 31/07/2020 #1 in Sebastian Moran - 03/08/2020 #1 in Moriarty - 15/08/2020 #1 in Greg Lestrade - 02/09/2020 #1 in Mrs Hudson - 28/10/2020 #1 in Baker Street - 01/11/2020 #1 in Sherlock Love Story - 01/12/2020 ❤❤❤ #1 in Lestrade - 01/12/2020 #1 in 221B - 16/12/2020 #1 in BBC Sherlock - 31/01/2021 #1 in Detective - 19/03/2021 😲 #1 in John Watson - 10/05/2021 #2 in Jim Moriarty - 12/12/2021 #1 in OC Story - 20/12/2021 #1 in Thief - 04/05/2023Complete

Hunter (Sherlock Fanfiction)
#1 in ynstories (17/07/2022) You are the best assassin in history, the most ruthless, the most efficient of them all. The day you were sent to kill Sherlock Holmes, was the day your life changed. The moment he told you the truth, your whole life changed. What happens when, instead of assassinating the world's best consulting detective, you join him in taking down the organisation who employed you? The organisation that has kept the truth about your whole life a secret? How deep does the rabbit hole go? I've rewritten some of the plot in order for this story to make sense, the start of the story is set in the time inbetween S2E2-E3. Majority of the plot will stay the same. I do not own any of the BBC sherlock characters. I have created OCs (I don't own you obviously but I made the personality for this story). !!SHERLOCKXFEM READER!! !!MENTION OF DRUGS!! !!Trigger warnings: some sensitive topics may be discussed!! !!Maybe smut!! Also it's written in first person view, I find that easier in the moment but in the future if I write other books or a sequel I'll probably try second person or third person This is my first story lol so we'll see where this goes, most characters in the show will be appearing, Sherlock and John being those you spend the most time with but yeah if you like it please share with others :)Complete
The Consulting Detective's Apprentice (Sherlock x Reader)
When Sherlock goes off to solve another case for Scotland Yard, he doesn't expect to be greeted by a new member of the forensics team that shows serious promise of being more than an idiot. She just needs a nudge in the right direction. You are going to be his apprentice, and he'll teach you the art of being a genius. What he didn't anticipate is that you're going him to teach him a lot too, but on a different kind of subject... This is a work written by AspiringHuntressWhoGetsKilled on Archive of our Own. I brought the story to Wattpad so everyone on here could read it, too. :) This story is not mine- so if you vote on it here, I'm sure she would appreciate it if you went and gave her kudos on AO3. Enjoy!Complete
