Loyalty and Limerence by Serendipity001 reviews
Garrus' thoughts and feelings regarding Commander John Shepard were easy to understand and explain: He respected and admired the human Spectre and would follow him into hell in a heartbeat. His feelings regarding his crewmate and friend, Lieutenant Jane Shepard, however, weren't as clear cut. She'd taken up residence in his head and wouldn't leave. Parallel AU, Part 3 in progress.

Interesting Times by Zanarkand Kido reviews
Coming to terms with being reborn? Doable. Finding out you're in the Mass Effect universe? Slightly more difficult. I know I'm no soldier material but I want to do what I can to help save the galaxy. To that goal I will become one of the worst beings in human society. A businessman and politician. A SI/OC-story of a different kind.

An Interrupted Winter by BBadolato reviews
A chance encounter on Omega between two hunters, happens to result in some very unintended consequences. A Mass Effect AU that promises changes from some parts of ME 3. This is a Kai Leng/Morinth pairing, I want to write with depth to it, and major changes for them. This fic will deal with some potentially heavy themes and has spoilers for parts of the trilogy as a warning.

Burnt for Beacons by masterofziltch reviews
FemShep's investigation of Cerberus' nefarious activities, while she struggles with questions about her own identity. This story is not super canon-y, but it fits with the story, especially if you aren't too personally attached to your version of the characters. It aims to fill in the gaps and is told from Ash's POV. Rated T for blood-curdling swears. FemShep/Ashley (slowest burn).

A Cursed Existence by Edgeoftoday reviews
I think we can all agree waking up as a guy in a woman's body would be jarring to say the least. Waking up as an asari? Horrifying. But waking up as what I had the incredible misfortune to be... Let's just say I wouldn't bet on me surviving long enough to see the Reapers make their grand debut. Asari SI, starts just before ME1.
