Summary: Dean Winchester is an only child. After his Mom is killed by a demon when he was four, his Dad takes him on the road to protect him. John becomes a hunter and Bobby and Caleb come into their lives. Sam Weston’s Mom died in a car wreck. He was raised by his Aunt Beth, and she knows that Sam is special. The boys first meet when Sammy is five and Dean is nine, and it becomes clear that Sam’s talents include an uncanny knack of saving Dean from harm. Over the years, Dean discovers that family doesn’t end with blood and as the yellow eyed demon continues to take its toll, friendships are tested and love develops along the way. But will any of them survive the final showdown?
My comments: You know I don't touch Wincest and I very nearly didn't read this because even an AU where they aren't brothers is cutting it a little fine for me. I loved this though! It's got all the basic elements of an SPN story but it's far enough away from Wincest that I didn't feel uncomfortable reading it at all
Title: Given and Taken in Ink
Author:marishna
Summary: Author Jared Padalecki has created a sheltered existence for himself, believing that he's happy half-living his safe life. He hides behind his pen name so few people know the real Jared, as he protects himself from others finding out his books aren't 100% fiction. His new neighbour, Jensen Ackles, knows there's something different about Jared and pushes until he has no choice but to let Jensen in. When Jared's carefully constructed life collapses around him will Jensen even care who Jared really is or will Jared's worries become reality?
My comments: I was really puzzled by this because even though it's an AU the characters are really not like they usually are. Then you find out why and it all makes sense and is amazing
Title: The Wildest Swan
Author:seleneheart
Summary: Prince Jensen can’t find his place in the kingdom because no one has any use for a man with one arm and a swan’s wing. The king allows him to search for a cure, but insists that his nephew, Prince Jared, go with him to guide and protect him. Jared is exiled from his own country for some mysterious reason and he carries other secrets, including the identity of his father and a prophecy that is hanging over his head. Their journey to discover a way to restore Jensen’s arm takes them to places they never imagined and dangers that will test the fortitude of both their hearts.
My comments: I love fairy tale fics and this one is brilliant, made even more outstanding by the incredible art that has been done to go with it
