Booth, Bones, Beckett and Castle are forced to team up when old enemies come back to eliminate them. Takes place immediately after "The Change in the Game" and "After the Storm." Rated T for language.

Radiant. It was the only word to describe her. Positively, gloriously radiant.

My fan fic for the Callen's Corner Challenge for NCISLA Magazine about the two missing hours from "Purity." This is a one shot after the G. Callen and Jenny Hathaway story. You do not have to read that story to understand this one.

Now it's up to him to make her face her own feelings but given how stubborn she can be he's going to have to be a little creative.

She fell in love with his words long before she fell in love with him. A collection of Spiral Bound outtakes.

Based on a prompt: What if the crime in the alley scene in 'Always' had nothing to do with Kate's shooting or her mom's murder. And the John Woo marathon went ahead. Would Kate show up at the loft and what happens next? "His footfalls greet her like an approaching army, striking fear and terror, laced with excitement and something that feels suspiciously like arousal, within her."

What if Kate Beckett and Richard Castle had met in a different way? Let's say that's what happens. Will Kate accept that he has a daughter?

How will Meredith take all of this? - Guess you'll have to read and see... - Multichapter - title to be selected by readers...

When he walked into the 12th Precinct, he had expected dead bodies, trash cans, and paperwork. But what young Detective Richard Rodgers was not expecting, however, was his new partner, Detective Kate Beckett. Caskett/AU.

"He narrows his eyes at Kate's back, frowning, a tinge of challenge still running through his veins, defiance clearly evident in his glare. She's obviously upset with him, but she's also being completely unfair. He's not the one who accused her of jeopardizing their relationship after all." Set somewhere starting S05.

All we do is light it up all night.

"What are you gonna do in the meantime?" Beckett is thinking of a lot more than something. Smutty tongue-in-cheek look at what they might do during Beckett's suspension. Post 5x01. Caskett.

"Oh, I'm pretty sure I'll think of something." There's a lilt to the end of her sentence, a trace of temptation through the words, like she's planning something or thinking dirty thoughts, and he just can't get over how much he loves this side of her, that he gets to see it. Post 5x01

"So you liked it?" - "Yeah." - "Even the part where..." - "Especially that part. I loved that." The reassurance tumbles from his lips, so eager and blissful, the memory sharp behind his eyes, stealing his breath all over again as he remembers... Episode insert for 5x01, 'After The Storm.'

The everyday journey from friendship to a relationship. Post Always.

If she hadn't said yes, they wouldn't have kissed. Alternate Universe. Picks up immediately after Cops and Robbers.

AU. She'd never met a more arrogant man in her whole life who obviously considered himself God's gift to the universe. She detested men like him. She just wished that he wouldn't be so insanely hot. COMPLETE

Beckett is waiting for Castle at the precinct when she gets a call from Alexis and finds herself rushing over to the hospital, after Castle has been involved in a car accident.

Friends with benefits. A bad idea when said partners are in love. It's even worse when they can't communicate their feelings. What happens when they both settle for casual because they think it's all they can have? Complications and consequences arise.

A detective has partnered with a writer to speak for those who have been murdered. It's Castle and Beckett doing what they do. With one little difference. Until chapter 11. Then things get a lot different.
