Glistening Sunhide bio
 Author has written 32 stories for Closer, and Major Crimes. I've been writing ever since I can remember. Some years ago I found this wonderful website and I've finally found the courage to upload some of my work. I am ever so curious to hear what you think! Like everyone else here, I don't own any of the characters that seem familiar to you. I'm just borrowing them for a while promising to return them in good condition (and maybe just a little happier). Okay, I wrote that a wile ago and I apologise for the angst that has since crept into my stories :-) ! Most of my cover images are courtesy of the wonderful people at . Some of my season 3 episode tags have a continuing storyline, and while they can be read individually, they're probably more fun to read in the correct order - especially if you like Shandy.
Update: Go check out Shannon likes the Sun, a joint writing project with Miss Shannon! |

Promises and Pain by ProfTweety reviews
Tag 3.17: It had taken them three times to get to this point, this place where they now were. It had taken anger, harsh words, whispers and caresses. It had taken tears together and separately for them to reach their final understanding of what they were. More than friends, so much more, lovers in fact, but it had taken them three times to get that settled between them.

Try to Love Again by Kadi219 reviews
Raydor/Flynn - This began as an episode addition to 3x09 "Sweet Revenge" and grew beyond that. I've also included mention of 3x10 "Zoo Story", so there are possible spoilers within. Relationships don't happen in vacuum, and sometimes all you need a chance to get it right, even if it's the second chance.

Winter Holidays reviews
"Help!" Her boy's voice rang out over the mountain. "Help! Sharon, shit!" Maybe this hadn't been such a good idea. Although it had sounded like a perfect idea to start with. The family was meeting in Park City like every year and this year, for the very first time, she was going to join them with Rusty - and she was going to teach him to ski. So much for the plan.

Old-fashioned Surprises reviews
'The first big surprise came when she actually agreed to date me. The conditions she put were also rather surprising. But what choice did I have? I had fallen in love with her slowly, bit by bit, until I was so deeply engaged, there was no way I could have ever turned away from her.'
