    Summary

    The London Library is Dr. Aziraphale Fell’s cathedral of calm - the tea in the Member's Room, his notes in immaculate rows in the Reading Room, silence thick enough to hear the dust settle.

    But then a stranger dares to scrawl clever little messages in the margins of his favourite books. Outrageous! Inexcusable! And yet… somehow, utterly irresistible.

    Anthony Crowley loathes his job and rebels against the futility of life by scribbling wicked little asides in priceless London Library books, never expecting an answer.

    Until someone writes back. Someone insufferably prim, precise and ... fascinating.

    What begins as a literary battle of wits might just unfold into an adventure neither of them anticipated.

    Summary

    Heaven doesn’t make mistakes. The fact that the archangel Raphael is predestined to start the apocalypse and is also currently existing on earth as the demon Crowley is more of an oversight, really. One that must be rectified.

    And if the restored Raphael isn’t on board with fulfilling his glorious purpose, it’s simple enough to make him forget he ever fell in the first place.

    Meanwhile, absence makes the heart grow frantic as Aziraphale is finally forced to face the depth of his unexamined feelings for his supposed enemy.

    Now, with Raphael missing most of his memories, Heaven and Hell after them, not to mention the world coming to an end, they still need to find the time for a conversation that's a few thousand years overdue. Assuming it’s not already too late.

    She flipped to the paperwork for the new gentleman, a Mr. A. Z. Fell.

    He was a retired literature professor, it seemed.

    He was slated to be in the room next to — oh, this could be a problem — Anthony.

    Summary

    Crowley rubs a hand down his face, sighing. “Then you know that you shouldn’t have done that.”

    “It was the only choice I had. If you got smitten—” Aziraphale swallows, feeling his back throb in pain. “You would have died right where you stood. I could not allow that.”

    Crowley’s mouth turns into a thin line, his fury radiating through the room. “So, what? It was better if it was you rather than me that took the hit?”

    “Yes!” Aziraphale exclaims, sitting up in bed. He winces as his back protests the movement, but he needs Crowley to understand. “You deserve better than what I was able to ever give you, and you need to help Muriel and the Messiah. If I ceased to exist, nothing would change the outcome of stopping all of this.”

    “No, you don’t get to say that.” Crowley walks up to the bed. “If you think I’ll ever stand to lose you again, then you’re bloody wrong. The outcome would be different because I wouldn’t have you, you daft thing.”

    After everything is said and done, Aziraphale has to learn to adjust to life on Earth after seven years of being in Heaven. Luckily, Crowley is there to help him heal, and to give him the love that he feels he's lost.

    Summary

    1941 is the London Blitz and the year that MI5 really comes into its own with the now infamous ‘double cross’ system. The service keep tabs on suspects, root out enemy agents and try to turn them into doubles.

    Anthony J Crowley is fucking great at this job. He can be sneaky, underhanded and damn ruthless but also charming and kind. It’s what makes him good at turning.

    Aziraphale is just a regular Soho bookseller who loves his shop and books and good food and wine when he’s approached by a woman claiming to be MI5, wanting to recruit him for espionage. The poor man is too trusting and gets the shock of his life when he’s approached by a charming but dangerous-looking man also claiming to be MI5.

    Crowley recruits Aziraphale to double cross a double crosser and Aziraphale takes to espionage like a duck to water.

    Danger, hijinks, and sex ensue.
