I know I was supposed to post ONE story, but, come on!!! There simply isn't a way to split these two! :D
Is there a complete version of "Our Story" around anywhere? The link above gives only 47 parts, and ishallbelieveinml has 48 parts. Was it never finished?

Anyway, I highly recommend Blue Remembered Hills (http://roswell-thepromise.com/fanfic/wr ... lls01.html) by WR. It isn't the first fic I read, and it wasn't the fic that got me hooked on Roswell fanfic, but this fic has made a pretty good impact on me, and I can easily call this one of the best ever Roswell fics I've read. :D

As far as I know "Our Story" was never finished. Jasper left a few fics unfinished on the boards including some NC-17s. It would be nice to see the fics finished.

oh it´s so hard to choose there are just so many wonderful stories. My recommendation would be the first AU Story I read, it´s Prisoner of Love by Mia Nora

Title: Prisoner of Love
Disclaimer: own nil except my imagination
Rating: ADULT(either way it's still gonna contain adult content)
Summary: AU. No Aliens. Liz is a Lady who is wrongfully accused and set prisoner on a pirate ship.
Author's note:Im a major AU/romance adventure kinda gal, thats the reason for this fic's theme. I have to say that it is not a 'smut' story, but there will be some lovemaking scenes-thank you

Blue Remembered Hills by WR

Author's Summary: Post Graduation. We follow the gang on their journey.

The summary doesn't quite do the story justice but trust me - it's definately worth reading (a few times).
I completely agree, this fic is by far, hands down the best fanfic I've ever read.

If the show had continued, I would have loved to see it go down this path.

Absolutely brilliant, very compelling, and just an amazing story.

You will not be left wanting. :mrgreen:

hmmm. if there's only one fic... well, i only really read crossovers so... i can't choose between "Vengeance" by littlebit and "Shot Throught the Heart" by KiaraAlexisKnightly but since I have to choose only one, i would have to choose "Vengeance" because as much as I love Oliver, I love Sark just as much and since Vengeance has more chapers, it wins by default. *sigh* sad, i know.

I was lucky/smart enough to win Majesty's services at the recent author auction. She had signed on for a 5000 word fic but the piece she wrote ended up being over three times that long. And I absolutely insist that you read it. Flawed heroes & new beginnings

I have to absolutely post this one. I read it and it's just beautiful and I think it really captures the relationship between Max and Liz- but beware! This one is from the Alien Abyss so bring those tissues!

There are actually two fics that I'm going to recommend here.

They have both completely blown me away with their storylines and incredibly rich characters.

1). Destiny's Pleasure by Lena7 - To tell you the truth anything Lena writes is pure gold. This is not an exaggeration. She writes with such passion and raw intense emotion it's beyond talent with her, it's pure artistry. Such stories as Trapped and Insatiable Desire and many many more are just insanely gripping and flawless. Destiny's Pleasure is completed now but when she was writing it I was checking daily for an update, it's just beyond perfect. It is currently located in the Abyss. You will not be disappointed. OH it also has the best twist of any story I have ever read. I was literally yelling at the computer unable to hold in my excitment ...needless to say I. loved. it!! Her portrayal of Max is better than anything I have ever read.





2) Death is a Playground by darkmoon - Ok if you have been lucky enough to had read her series The Domestication Of Zan in the completed section of the UC board you already are aware of this girls brilliant mind. Death is a Playground is currently in the Abyss and if you even peak at it you will be drawn in so fast it will make your head spin. Truly one of the best stories I have ever read darkmoon is to me on a whole different level than the rest of us. She will have you crying on moment and laughing the next. The hero of the story FLiz will just have you glued to the computer screen with her heartbreaking depiction of a woman who has the weight of the world on her shoulders. This should be for sale in a book store somewhere. darkmoon has written these characters that we love so much far better than the writers on the show. Her play on words is just on a genius level. I again recommend anything she writes but Death is a Playground is beyond amazing ...it's just perfect.

Trust me :wink: Carrie :D

I had never read this series. Thank you so much for recommending it. It was truly wonderful.
