Thanks to happenstance and the Wayback Machine, I recently came across an old Chris/Mary website and have been positively devouring Magnificent 7 stories about the two. Here are a few of my favorites so far and I haven't even read half of what is on there!

Why This Must Be Read: Author's Summary: As Chris reels from the apparent murder of Mary Travis, the rest of the men swear to bring her killers to justice. I love how all of Chris' defenses are stripped away in this story and what he is left with is how he really feels about Mary. It is a great story with plenty of action and heart. Don't worry it has a heartwarming ending!

Why This Must Be Read: A group of men coming looking for retribution against Chris, and Mary is the one who pays the price. What I loved about this story was how we get to see just how much Mary means not only Chris who realizes he loves her but also how the rest of the seven feel about their friend. It is a very well written story!

Why This Must Be Read: Basically Chris and Mary spend a quiet evening together. What I loved about this story is that the author does not rush the slow realization that steals over both Chris and Mary about their feelings for each other. It is a delicious read that has a very hopeful ending for my favorite duo.
