Summary
Castiel is a shapeshifter, haunted by his mother’s murder and terrified of becoming a monster himself. Survival means pretending, and he’s learned to be anyone but himself until the night he meets Dean Winchester.
Dean is a hunter, raised to follow his father’s orders and become whatever the job demands. He doesn’t know who he is when he’s not performing, until he meets someone he calls “Blue”.
What begins as a quest for revenge turns into something else: the collision of two men hiding from the world, each desperate and terrified to be seen beneath their disguises.

Summary
“How the fuck do you know my name?” Dean hisses.
The man doesn’t look scared. He is watching Dean like there is nothing else worth watching, lips a little parted, eyes a little soft. And blue. Real blue, like the ocean on a postcard.
The ice spreading down Dean’s spine makes him shiver.
“I suppose you could say I’m your guardian angel,” the man murmurs. His breath fogs pale between them. All of him is unnaturally warm, like Dean’s touching somebody with the sun sewn up beneath their skin. “I have known you, Dean Winchester, for a very long time.”
*
Dean meets an angel who says he's from the future. It all gets a lot more complicated from there.

Summary
Sometimes, second chances come to the most unlikely people at the most desperate times, leading them to a path that no one ever expected.
Starting with Petunia Evans and her journey back in time (Flowers by the Wayside) and continuing through the early childhood (Seedlings) and Hogwarts days (Flowers in Bloom) of her son Ethan and nephew Harry, the Flowers Series spans the first and second Wizarding Wars against Voldemort and shows how Petunia's personal quest for redemption drastically changes the course of Wizarding history.
