    Summary

    After yet another disastrous date, Aziraphale Fell is ready to throw in the towel and resign himself to the solitary existence he doesn’t mind all that much. Enter Anthony J. Crowley, matchmaker extraordinaire, who bets Aziraphale the 100% success rate of Made in Hell, his matchmaking agency, that he can find him a suitable match in no time.
    After all, Crowley is a consummate professional with a troubled dating history who has learned from his past mistakes and has sworn off love himself: he’s certainly not going to fall for the charms of an extremely fussy bookseller… or is he?
    Between dubious romantic prospects, far too much meddling, ridiculous antics and a developing connection, Made in Hell’s success rate might not be the only thing on the line here.

    Summary

    When somebody starts parking inconsiderately in the car park at Tadfield Shopping Park, Aziraphale has things to say.

    It couldn't hurt to leave a politely worded note, now, could it?

    Only, the culprit isn't exactly who Aziraphale had imagined, and he might be in for a very different type of trouble than he'd bargained for.

    Summary

    Zee slipped back into his flat and closed the door quietly.

    This had been a mistake. He could feel the edges of his carefully pasted-together life starting to curl, exposing the raw undersides. It was a good thing he was near the end of his current manuscript, because he needed to be as shut-in as possible. Allow some distance between the conversation tonight and the next time he spoke with Crowley. Let the spark of this connection fizzle out before it took root.

    ***
    Zee (Aziraphale) Marsh is a widowed hermit who secretly writes bestselling romance novels under the pseudonym Bella Swansea. His life is rigorously controlled until his new downstairs neighbor arrives. Anthony Crowley causes something to come alive in Zee that he hasn't seen in over twenty years, but Crowley brings with him some of his own very dark secrets.

    Summary

    “It’s good, thank you,” Zira said curtly, then fixed him with another glare. “And my name is Zira, not Angel.”

    He shouldn’t speak, he shouldn’t speak, he shouldn’t speak— “S’not what the A stands for? Cos it seems like it could be, with, y’know, y’lookin’ all—ngh—angelic and—nhmmm—cherubic an’ stuff y’know.”

    Crowley was going to cut out his own tongue.

    *****
    Zira loathes Crowley from the first time they crash into each other. The cool, confident, brash man is the opposite in every way to his anonymous online paramour, Rose. Crowley is attracted to Zira, but the man is supercilious and overbearing. Besides, he’s only flirting with Zira because he doesn’t think he’s worthy of his anonymous online partner, Flower. Now, Zira and Crowley are trapped on a ship together, assigned to the same dinner table for the next two weeks, while online, Flower and Rose are planning to meet in person for the first time…

    Summary

    “You are not selling your books to try to get back what’s already yours! Listen, Aziraphale. I know you’re opposed to the idea of an arranged marriage—”

    “A fake marriage,” he clarified, voice like ice. Ana ignored him.

    “—but it’s time you see sense. You will find someone, and you will marry him. You will inherit your property properly, and after a reasonable amount of time to deal with any legal challenges, you will divorce. It won’t destroy anyone’s future, and hell, maybe you’ll actually fall in love.”

    Aziraphale snorted. “Don’t count on it.”

    Summary

    It’s the start of the Season in 1841 Victorian England. Mr Anthony Crowley has left a life of working at a luxurious high end bordello in Paris behind him and is now a courtesan intent on climbing the social ladder in London to increase his status and social connections.

    After unexpectedly inheriting the title of the Earl of Eastgate, Aziraphale finds himself trying to navigate the complicated world of the aristocracy. Duke Gabriel purchases a month-long contract with Mr Crowley for Lord Fell as a surprise gift to Aziraphale’s astonishment and dismay. He declines to take full advantage of Crowley’s charms but agrees to an arrangement of pretending to be Crowley’s paramour in exchange for lessons on the etiquette and expectations of Society.

    It’s a practical arrangement, nothing more. Certainly no feelings will be involved...

    Summary

    Crowley didn't look up immediately when he heard the shop door open; he was just in the middle of finishing off a complicated bouquet, and the blasted ribbon was being difficult about things.

    "Just a sec," he said, scowling as the end slipped away from him again.

    There was a pause. And then a voice, softly, "There you are."

    An unusual customer walks into Anthony Crowley's flower shop with a very specific request. AU, series, complete, angst with a happy ending.

    Summary

    Spring has come to London, and with it, fresh possibilities. Anthony Crowley--determined to finally follow through on old dreams--signs up for a couple of classes as he tries to revisit what he loves best, get out of a rut, and get back into his career as a freelancer. Aziraphale works as a librarian not far from St. Lucius' School of Fine Art, and when his neighbour and friend, Anathema, asks if he would be interested in a little side-gig as one of the life models for her Intermediate Figure Drawing class, he agrees.

    That's not going to awaken things in anyone, right?

    Summary

    Anthony Crowley was going blind.

    He'd been informed eleven months ago when it had become apparent his distance vision was getting worse and he’d reluctantly gone in to have it checked out. Ever since the shock had blunted, he’d been preparing. When the glasses no longer helped, he'd given up driving and sold his car. He'd taken up learning braille despite his near vision still being passable, just because he knew, eventually, he'd need to.

    Thankfully, with over twenty years working at quite the prestigious law firm, he could even prepare for early retirement, a goal he’d already had anyway. He was in his late forties. If he could stick it out for a couple more years doing consultation, there would be enough money to go on for quite a while, (a good thirty, thirty-five years) if he was smart about it .... The point was, he'd planned. He could be okay. He would be fine.

    Anthony Crowley had planned his future, in a minimalist flat he knew by heart and a world that would gradually lose its definition.

    What he hadn't prepared for was a soft, gentle voice and a bright blur of pale features, and the yearning they would set off like a firework in his heart.

    Summary

    When actor Anthony Crowley is invited to take part in a special celebrity edition of a certain British baking competition, he agrees immediately. It’s for a good cause, after all. It has nothing to do with his long-standing crush on one of the show’s judges, professional baker Aziraphale East.

    Okay, fine. It has a little bit to do with Aziraphale. Every time they’ve crossed paths, Crowley has walked away more smitten than the last, but he can’t seem to seal the deal. With only two days in the tent, can he whip up something scrumptious enough to convince Aziraphale to take a chance on Crowley – and maybe even on love?

    Summary

    Newly divorced and thrilled about it—and maybe a few shots into some tequila—Crowley tells her friend Bea she's swearing off relationships forever.
    And why not? It's not like Aziraphale is interested. The sweet, gentle, just-enough-of-a-bastard co-worker she's been pining for has only ever been an almost-friend.
    Until one day, he's a little bit more.
    Stolen moments in wine cellars and supply closets are fine, perfectly alright…until they aren't.
    A story about miscommunication, second chances, the fine art of tormenting pretentious head chefs, and finding out that "just alright" was never going to be enough.

    Summary

    2004. New York City. The Republican National Convention.

    It was always a possibility that Crowley would be arrested. He'd written the number for the National Lawyers' Guild on his arm before heading out to join the protest march, after all. But he wasn't exactly expecting to have the worst night of his life — or to find out that his lawyer is Aziraphale Fell.

    And fuck, he looks just as kissable as he did at summer camp twelve years ago. What is Crowley going to do?

    Summary

    Ever since they met at an exclusive college for musicians twelve years ago, Aziraphale Eastgate and Anthony Crowley have had each other's backs. Sure, Aziraphale is a small-town organist and choir director composing hymns and Mass settings on the side, while Crowley is a Grammy-winning songwriter and record producer, but when they get together in front of a piano, it's undeniable that magic happens. So when Crowley gets stuck writing the music for a brand-new boy band, it's natural that he calls Aziraphale for help. And Aziraphale is more than happy to be there for him.

    All he has to do is conceal what a smoking crater his life has become. Oh, and make sure Crowley never finds out just how much Aziraphale loves him.

    Summary

    Okay, maybe there’s something to be said for the bookcase, he thinks, as Aziraphale pulls him against it, kissing him so thoroughly that he can feel it in his toes. There is something enticingly familiar about pressing Aziraphale back against a flat surface, one hand fisted into his lapels. There is something refreshingly un-familiar about his best friend's response

    Summary

    “I could be, you know,” Crowley spoke up, gently, breaking the contemplative silence of the room.

    “Hmm?” Aziraphale rubbed at a particularly stubborn fingerprint on the cover of his book, using the moment to distract himself from the sudden increase in the tempo of his heartbeat. “Could be what, dear boy?”

    “Your Anthony.”
