+ Carve Our Names in Hearts Into the Warhead by cherie_morte
AU: After years of training to be a U.S. missileer, Jared finds himself locked in a missile silo underground with only one other pissed off crew member to keep him company. There he and Jensen wait (and wait and wait) for a message from their superiors: an order that will either announce the end of World War III and tell them to return to life on the surface or leave them with the responsibility of sending a retaliatory missile to the enemy, ensuring that no one makes it out alive on either side except for those safely contained in fallout shelters.
Super interesting read that keeps you going. Sexy, too, and very hopeful :)
+ Fancy That by kelleigh
The Morgan Traveling Exhibition & Gun Competition is recognized throughout the West as the finest showcase of shooters, ropers, and riders this side of the Mississippi River. Jensen, known better as The Texas Rose, joined J.D. Morgan’s troupe after the promoter rescued him from a prostitution camp when he was barely a teenager. Life on the road gives Jensen the family he’s always wanted, freedom to express his desires, and plenty of lovers, but Jensen longs for a partner who sees him as more than just a pretty face in a fancy costume. When he walks into a saloon the night before a competition and finds a tall, slim gunslinger standing alone at the bar, Jensen senses that passion could burn bright between them. However, Jensen knows that the only thing more dangerous than a gunslinger's aim would be falling in love with one. Though they both make their home on the road, Jensen's job is to celebrate life. Jared's job is to end it.
An absolutely AMAZING ride from beginning to end. Such beautifully written words and voices, you can't help but be pulled into that world.
+ Into the Light of the Dark Black Night by dugindeep
In the twenty-second century, Chicago still stands as the Second City, but much of it has crumbled under the weight of a changed world. Failed industries and a changing climate have led to ruin, and half the city — and Earth — is not what was once promised: a strong, sustainable future.

Jared has been consumed with knowing all he can about the Black Falcon for years, and is fascinated by the winged creature that once stood as the city’s saving grace. On a stormy night, Jared is spared from death by who he swears is the Black Falcon, and is spurred to track him down. There’s more to the Falcon’s story, and Jared finds himself in greater trouble than a tragic car wreck. Jared’s modern fairytale unravels on a dark and dirty backdrop, but there’s still a damsel in distress and a hero who will need saving.
Such an amazing story with an awesome build for them - had twists that you're not expecting and gorgeous art to go along with it. A is an AWESOME author <3
