Summary
Eternally single professor Castiel is quiet, nerdy, and keeps to his research. The one indulgence that he allows himself is spending hours on YouTube bingeing the vlogs of a handsome, reckless archaeologist. Hunter styles himself as a bit of an Indiana Jones type, and he reminds Castiel of the adventurous, free person he longs to be. Plus, he’s super hot.
Imagine Castiel’s surprise when he meets the new archaeology professor at the Humanities potluck.
This is his chance—he is finally in the same room as Dean “Hunter” Winchester!
Unfortunately, the best interaction shy, awkward Castiel can manage is to steal his new colleague’s Tupperware.

Summary
“People out there, Dean? They’ll chew you up and spit you out. You gotta learn to exist in the hearing world, or you’re never going to get anywhere. Learn to deal with it,” Dad had said, over and over.
Dean knows it's bullshit.
But that doesn’t mean it's easy to do any different, even with his Dad long gone.
Fighting the world and with something to prove, Dean Winchester goes back to college, years after he initially dropped out. After a lot of persuasion from his found family, Dean agrees to have an interpreter assist him with his classes.
Enter Castiel Novak, a gorgeous ASL interpreter who might be even more stubborn than Dean.

Summary
Dean Winchester has everything he was supposed to want: a peaceful home in a small town close to his little brother, and his own veterinary practice, just like his mom hoped. But life in Angel’s Rest isn’t quite what Dean imagined. He’s lonely, and he has no way to relieve the pressures of day-to-day life.
A chance meeting with a rude sheep named Meg leads Dean to Castiel, the owner of Blazing Needles, the town’s independent yarn and craft store. The connection between them is instant, and it seems like Castiel could be everything that Dean needs. He’s just got to work out how to make that leap...
A safe, sane, and consensual tale of comedic animal encounters, little white lies, and waiting for the right (wrong) moment.

Summary
The air was sharp, frigid, cold wrapping around them like a blanket of knives, but this was soft somehow, hushed like wings settling in for the night, snowflakes illumined like stars in the faltering light outside the bunker.
“I love you.” Dean whispered, quieter than the snow.
“But I’ve—” Cas started to say, to protest.
“I love you.” Dean repeated. He tucked the scarf around tighter, adjusted the gloves until Cas caught his wrists. Louder than the snow, and softer.
Cas stared at him, wide and blue and blinking, his mouth open just enough to let a bit of snow in.

Summary
Some guys don’t know how to take no for an answer. Lucifer is one of them.
Most people in Dean's position would do something civilized, like threaten to flatten Lucifer's snooty face with a lump hammer or file a restraining order.
Instead, Dean concocts a scheme to make out with the hot (and weird) philosophy major that his buddy Ash buys weed from.
It's not a gay thing, it's a proving-a-point thing!
(Okay. Turns out, it might be a gay thing.)

Summary
Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak were inseparable friends growing up in the too-small town of Heaven Falls, New York. But that all comes apart when, on the verge of leaving for college, Castiel tells Dean that he's in love with him. Dean doesn't say those three words back, so Castiel leaves, and builds a life as an attorney in Manhattan, where he convinces himself he has all the success and happiness he ever wanted.
Decades later, Castiel's brother dies in a tragic accident, and Castiel finds himself returning to Heaven Falls, and to everything he thought he'd left behind. A chance meeting in a bar leads to Dean making a confession to Castiel - he had always felt the same way, but was just too scared to say it. And an unexpected night with Dean makes Castiel to question whether he should return to to the world he once thought was his dream, or stay in the place that feels like his home

Summary
Castiel knows three facts about Dean Winchester: he loves coffee, he loves pie, and as heartbreaking as it is, he’s homeless.
When Castiel offers Dean a place to stay on a cold winter night, he never expects it to lead to anything more than a simple act of kindness. But as Dean begins to take refuge in his home, Castiel’s life is turned upside down by the unanswered questions Dean carries—and the growing connection between them.
In the warmth of shared moments and quiet understanding, they both begin to heal from the past, but the future remains uncertain.

Summary
Author Castiel Novak’s comfortable routine gets completely disrupted when he spots that his neighbor has fallen off his roof. His neighbor with gorgeous green eyes and a smile that always stirs a flutter in his chest. His neighbor of three years, who he always became inexplicably tongue-tied around that he never got a chance to even trade names with. His neighbor, probably the only other person on their street that lives alone and so rarely has guests over, and seemingly none who are from around.
Worried that the man Castiel’s been pining over has no one else to take care of him, Castiel follows him to the hospital and is ready to put everything in his admittedly less than eventful life on hold to ensure the man’s safety. But Dean Winchester isn’t what Castiel expects, and Castiel can’t tell if this disruption will put his career at jeopardy if he fails to meet the upcoming deadline for his next book, or if it’s somehow exactly what he needs.

Summary
When Detective Castiel Novak relocated from Chicago to Vermont to be closer to his widowed brother Jimmy, and niece, Claire, he didn’t know quite what to expect. Certainly, Cas never imagined he would find the love of his life in Angel Valley’s cozy little local bar, dressed in chainmail and tights. Yet, it’s been five years since Castiel said I do to high School guidance counselor Dean Winchester, and not a day has passed where he didn’t count his blessings.
Until the unthinkable happened.
Days away from an anniversary trip promising to consist of nothing but incredible sex, food, and slumber, Dean and one of his students is taken hostage. Now, with the help of his partner, Gabriel, it was up to Castiel to swallow down his terror and find a way to rescue young Jack and his beloved husband.

Summary
In a world where soulmates are determined by a Soul Mark tattoo, having a Mark doesn’t magically make someone a good person. No one knows this better than Dean Winchester, whose soulmate is more than a little abusive.
Not that Dean would ever admit that, of course. Between Michael and his own insecurities, he’s convinced he’s broken on the inside, stuck fearing the person who’s supposed to love him more than anything. Worse, instead of loving the man he’s destined to spend the rest of his life with, he finds himself pining for his gentle, kind, slightly-odd best friend.
Castiel Krushnic also happens to be his college roommate, because everything in Dean’s life just has to be that easy.
He is so screwed.
