Rating: NC17
Word Count: ~ 42,000
Summary: When his life takes a turn for the worse, the offer of a job with the exclusive Mayfair Group seems like a sign that the fates are finally finding in Jared’s favor. In return for an impressive paycheck, all he is required to do is look after Charlie, who, when not Imprinted with serial killers (or serial daters) happens to be the most likable guy in the world. It’s perfectly easy to ignore the darker aspects of his job, that is until Charlie is Imprinted with his own personality and the line between reality and illusion is eradicated from the equation. Dollhouse AU.

Rating: NC17
Word Count: 24,529
Summary: Country music superstar Jensen Ackles has a secret. Or he did until the tabloids got a hold of pictures of him in a compromising position with another man. Now his agent has shipped him off to some tiny town in Massachusetts where they've never heard of country music to lay low until the scandal dies down. Everything is going according to plan until Jensen meets Jared, an English Professor at the local university. Jared devotes all his free time to LGBT awareness and issues while Jensen would rather just not talk about it. Nonetheless he finds himself falling for Jared. Eventually, though, Jensen has to choose between his multi-million dollar music career-- the life he always thought he wanted-- and true love.
