    Summary

    She tastes the same as she did a few months ago, when she’d been home for spring break. She tastes the same as she had over Christmas, beneath the hot chocolate and cinnamon that lingered sweet on her lips.

    She tastes the same as she had at the end of last summer, when they’d fallen together into this confusing, temporary break from sanity. Drunk and seeking an escape from the inevitabilities beating at their front doors: her, her imminent departure for college, and him, what it meant to be the person left behind when everyone else has moved on.

    Summary

    there’s only so many directions her mind can be heading at once—saving the world, saving her sister, praying her mother and father won’t die, asking that mike’s okay wherever he is, rationalizing her own future, hoping that she won’t die before she has the chance to figure it out, carving the score over and over and over and over again, the tally marks she’s considered pressing into the sensitive skin near her elbow, one, two, three…

    Summary

    Castiel Novak is perfectly happy with his work as an instructor at the FBI Academy, regardless of his parents’ belief that he’s wasting his medical degree. But then his life is turned upside down by a new assignment: to join Agent Dean Winchester in investigating X-Files — FBI cases that involve unexplained phenomena.

    Castiel is meant to test (or rather, debunk) Dean’s famously wild theories, but he soon finds himself drawn into events he can’t explain. The more time he spends with Dean, the harder it becomes to resist the pull of a man who cares more — and believes more fervently — than anyone Castiel has ever known.
