Written for: The Still in Love with McShep fest at mcsheplets
Summary: Based on the American Romance Library Cover Safe Surrenderby bluespirit-star - Summary by bluespirit-star - Rodney McKay was a genius astrophysicist whose work might one day unlock the secrets of the universe, but a trick of fate made him the only witness to a brutal murder, and now he must appear in the case to bring notorious mobster Acastus Kolya to justice. But Kolya has dirty cops in his back pocket, and his reach is long, and the chance or Rodney living to testify is getting smaller by the day.
Only one man stands between Rodney and certain death.
Fighter pilot turned US Marshal, John Sheppard has a job to do: to protect McKay and get him to that courtroom. But as the two men are forced into hiding, John finds his feelings for Rodney growing deeper, and he swears to do everything in his power to keep Rodney’s life safe - even it means sacrificing his own….
Author’s notes: I tried to stay as close to the summary as possible and I hope I’ve done it justice! If you are not familiar with bluespirit-star’s work GO CHECK IT OUT RIGHT NOW at her comm, starshinedreams. I love when there’s a new cover out! I wish there were stories to go along for all of them.
Also, I LOVE harlequins. I think this is the second time I’ve used the ‘bed sharing without having sex first’ trope and I’m sure many other familiar tropes. I hope my readers forgive me. This fic is meant to be fun and is maybe a little cliched, but I hope you enjoy!
Thanks also to mod velocitygrass who gave me an extension. I appreciate it!
Also thanks to my beta, neros_violin who also puts up with all my bitching!
