Summary
It’s been a while since Castiel last went to a bar. Especially a random one. He’s an introvert, capital I, and not much of a party animal for one, and two, it’s exhausting to be around straight people.
But he goes, and he meets one handsome stranger.Cas looks at him. They’re roughly the same height but the guy looks a little younger than Cas. “Not my type,” Cas says, about the female bartender.
The guy bites his lower lip as he studies Cas. “What is your type?” he asks then.
Cas doesn’t know where the guy is going with this but Cas hates talking to straight guys and the best way to make them go away is by scaring them with the gay, so that’s what he does.
He looks straight into the stranger’s eye, and dead serious, says: “You.”
Instead of backing off, the stranger smiles. "Lucky me."Series

Summary
Dean could tell you exactly how he came to be an enforcer for a long standing prison gang called the Alphas. Each tick of the timeline was bold and distinct. His dad had been second in command for years until he took a shiv to his kidney for stealing hooch from some meth head. That's what happened to drunks on the inside.
Dean was practically born into prison life. With his mother dead and his dad locked up, he had spent all of his time trying to take care of his baby brother. Crime was the only method he'd been given.

Summary
Castiel doesn't really know why his superiors picked him for a diplomatic mission to Hell, to meet with Dean Winchester, the Knight of Hell currently challenging Lilith's realm and thereby plunging Hell into a bloody civil war. He doesn't know why Heaven cares who sits on the throne of Hell, and he doesn't know why he was sent to Hell alone. But none of those questions matter. Castiel is a soldier, not a diplomat.
Except soon, Castiel is neither of those. Castiel is a prisoner, and Dean Winchester is his captor.
And Dean has no intention of letting Castiel go.

Summary
After an explosive fight with his wife, Castiel Novak finds himself divorced and unemployed at thirty-four years old. Reduced to living with his cousin, Gabriel, he runs into the last person he expected to see: his ex-roommate and best friend, Dean Winchester. In a fit of generosity, Dean makes an offer to Castiel: move out of Gabriel’s house and into his. At least until Castiel gets back on his feet.
Living with Dean is easy, and almost immediately, Castiel and Dean fall back into their old friendship. And living with Dean awakens other feelings in Castiel, ones that he once thought impossible (doesn’t everyone appreciate the aesthetic qualities of their roommates?). But the specter of one disastrous night in college hangs over them both, making it impossible for them to truly reflect on their friendship–and maybe making it impossible for them to move forward into anything real.

Summary
Being a homeless kitten sucks. I was cold, hungry, and barely hanging on. But then Tuna showed up—low, growly voice, warm hands, and absolutely no clue what he was doing. I knew right away I’d hit the jackpot. Now, I’ve got a cozy home, endless food, and a human who thinks he’s in charge (adorable, really). Training him has been my greatest challenge, but I’ve done a fine job.
Everything was perfect… until he brought in Salmon. I like this one—deep, steady voice, nice safe smell, excellent chin-scratching technique, and he actually listens to me when I meow. The problem? They were never with me at the same time but seemed to always wish they were.
Seriously, how long are these two going to dance around their feelings? I may be a cat, but even I know what’s going on. If these humans don’t claim each other soon, I just might have to take matters into my own paws.

Summary
The angels disappeared from the world thirty years ago. That’s why, when they choose the Aquarian Star to escort a garrison to Stull, Dean is suspicious. But a job is a job, and he needs money to put Sam through the prestigious Academy, so he goes along with the job. The job, however, becomes more difficult when Dean starts to become suspicious of what cargo the angels are really carrying to Stull. And further investigation proves that he is correct: the angels’ cargo is a person.
Forbidden from making any kind of contact, Dean nonetheless tirelessly investigates the mystery behind the angels’ mission as well as that of their cargo — a man named Castiel.

Summary
Dean Winchester has a dream of being a successful architect- one that may or may not be out of his reach. So when he receives a promising job at Designs of Divinity, a reputable architectural firm, he is beyond happy. It's everything he could ask for.

It isn't until he starts working for Castiel that he realizes the guy isn't exactly who he thought he'd be, and his dream job turns into a living hell. Dean decides he's had enough when Castiel denies him time off to attend his brother's wedding. But just when Dean thinks it can't get any worse, he finds out that he's being forced to marry Castiel to keep him from being deported. Fan-friggin'-tastic.

Summary
The angels have fallen, leaving Castiel graceless and Dean with, well, more of other people’s problems. When a string of couples goes missing on the east coast, Dean and Cas decide to investigate—and find themselves trapped and hunted on a couples’ counseling cruise. Although battling monsters at sea is dangerous enough, sorting through emotional baggage proves to be far more deadly. (And, in which Cas embarks to find his missing grace and Dean is put out. Not necessarily in that order.)
