Author has written 5 stories for Criminal Minds.

I’m a 50 something Southern California gal that loves Criminal Minds. As you can tell from my username, I LOVE Disney. I had annual passes to Disneyland for 16 years while my kids were young and we would go about 2 -3 times per month.

I am also a dedicated CM viewer and specifically love the character Dr. Spencer Reid. Because the show never gives him any happiness in his personal life, I made up my own story for him with an original character. Another reason I decided to give Reid a romantic life is to establish that someone cares for him and helps take care of him when he has nightmares, is poisoned with Anthrax and shot in the knee. He needs a little tender care to help get through these tough circumstances.

My stories revolved around Spencer meeting and falling in love with my own character, Chelsea Lozano. She doesn’t work for the Bureau, is not related to anyone on the team, nor is she a genius. I have followed canon on the TV series; only adding a back story and a whole private life for Spencer that is not shown on the show.

My story will mention most of the cases that Spencer and his team solve in chronological order based on air dates. I have taken a few creative liberties with dates because of TV breaks and/or hiatus. I assume that the readers of my stories are fans of the series and I do not rehash all of the details of each case, only use them as a background to how the characters react to the cases. I have also added several of my own cases throughout my stories.

My first story, Damaged: A Time to Heal, establishes a back-story on all of my own characters and how they revolve around and fit into the CM world. It takes place over several seasons starting in 2009 with some flashbacks to 2007. It details how Reid became addicted, how he kicked the habit by himself, and then started attending meetings when his "cravings" returned.

So far I have finished four separate stories and a small one-shot. I am in the middle of writing the fifth part of their continuing story. FYI - None of my stories end with a cliff hanger. If my story says “complete” it has an ending point. The next story will pick up where the last ended and continue to follow their life together.

I hope you enjoy my stories and I would love reviews. I would also like constructive criticism to improve my writing and if I made an error I appreciate you let me know.

October 15, 2015 - I am currently updating my stories to fix typos and grammatical errors. Thanks for your understanding if you are receiving multiple emails about updates.

Note: I'm sure it is obvious, but as a disclaimer - I do NOT own Criminal Minds or any of its characters, but I'd love to. :)

Little Boy Lost by slaterchest reviews
Four year old Spencer Reid is missing. The BAU is called into the murders of five little boys and one missing in Las Vegas. This is AU, this would be if Diana didn't put one and one together when Spencer was little. I hope you like it. Kid Spencer, but the rest of the team is grown and working for the BAU.

Of Genius and Gentility by aMUSEment345 reviews
The last thing Rossi had bought on for, when he'd returned from retirement, was the mentoring of an FBI oddball, a freak of nature, a socially inept, brilliantly gifted, geek. Nerd. Dork. "Nope, not for me. He's somebody else's problem." Until the book project. Set in Season Five.

Moments of Grace - Season Four, Act One: Before I Sleep by Parlanchina reviews
Workplace romance never ends well. SSA Grace Pearce knows this, but convincing Dr Spencer Reid is proving surprisingly problematic. With a killer back from the dead in Ohio, a cult in Colorado, a fiery call from an old friend in New Jersey and a series of murders along Highway 99, there's plenty to keep them occupied!

You Don't Have To Change A Thing by ecstaticallygray reviews
"He looks like he walked off a Burberry catalogue," Nyssa admired openly, eyes still glued to a certain young doctor who had just walked to his desk to collect some last minute stuff. "That's Dr. Spencer Reid," Penelope corrected herself, a little too happily. The journey of Reid's new love, but from the eyes of the team. Reid/OC. Set is season 9.

When a University student escapes the grasps of a violent serial killer, she is put into the care of Quantico's BAU. When that proves it is not enough to keep the young college student safe they transport her to a safe house with a certain Doctor as her new roommate. Not the best summary.

The Happiness of Another by WeepingLoveGrass reviews
What if Spencer wasn't as alone in life as his friends and coworkers thought he was? What if there was an equally intelligent girlfriend behind the scenes? It's not like it'd have been the first secret he kept from the team. What if he was just better at keeping this one in the dark? And what if their relationship is the reason he knows so much about skeletons?

Hypnotic by mabelreid reviews
The BAU must go to Las Vegas and stop a brutal killer. They have one witness, a young man covered in blood, found at the scene. This is AU and set at the beginning of the fourth season of CM. This is my interpretation of the dynamics of the BAU without Dr. Reid and what his life might be like if he'd never joined the FBI. ***Winner of Best AU story 2015 Profiler's Choice Awards***

Woods by New.York.Celt reviews
Drug and Violence Unit Agent Bailey Woods, an old friend of Hotch's, is brought onto a case to help build a profile of a homicidal drug lord. If her helping the BAU was a one time thing, why can't she seem to forget about a certain handsome genius? If she was just another agent, why couldn't Reid forget about her either? Story contains explicit language, drug use, & sexual content.
