    Summary

    Aziraphale Fell is an accomplished food writer and book collector who leads a quiet life. Anthony Crowley, owner of the Grand Duke Distillery, has a wild reputation that’s more fiction than fact. As former culinary school classmates, they share a love of food and drink — and a history of a long ago, lingering kiss. Years later, their friendship simmers into a heated affair that might just lead to true love — if they can overcome their own doubts.

     

    Aziraphale rises from his chair, takes a few steps towards him, then hesitates. Crowley knows a hundred different emotions must be flickering across his face, reflecting all the turmoil between his head and his heart. His heart is loud, insistent, nudging him to see the earnest hope in Aziraphale’s expression, to remember the beatific boy who lent him a pen and kissed him on a stair step, urging him to not let go of this man with ink-stained fingers and rare books who constantly surprises him.

     

    His shoulders tense as his breath hitches, his voice hoarse. “You need to tell me exactly what you want.”

    Summary

    ''A-angel?'' he stuttered, dumbfounded.

    He wanted to throw himself into his arms so desperately, his chest aching at the sight of the angel, but ultimately refrained from doing so because something about him felt off and he wasn't sure he could trust him yet. Had he been sent here on Heaven's orders, or did he come on his own?

    ''Not quite,'' Aziraphale answered.

    Crowley elected to ignore his comment in favor of making his indignation known.

    ''What have they done to you?'' he practically yelled, eyeing him up and down with a disapproving look.

    ''Oh, but I've always been like this, love,'' Aziraphale replied.

    Or : If Crowley can't have Aziraphale, maybe he can have his demonic version, much to the angel's utter dismay.

    Summary

    After years of enduring hellish neighbours, Crowley is delighted when they finally move out, and even more delighted when their replacement is easy going, friendly, doesn’t leave his bins on the kerb for weeks, and… attractive in a way that causes a fluttering in Crowley’s midsection like a battalion of butterflies attempting to form ranks.

    Crowley knows that hooking up with the person who lives next door to him is a Bad Idea. But a jar of his Nan’s famous caramel sauce as a ‘welcome to the neighbourhood’ gesture couldn’t hurt. And what’s he supposed to do when Aziraphale continues to show up at Crowley’s door with an irresistible smile, asking for more?
