Summary
1941 is the London Blitz and the year that MI5 really comes into its own with the now infamous ‘double cross’ system. The service keep tabs on suspects, root out enemy agents and try to turn them into doubles.
Anthony J Crowley is fucking great at this job. He can be sneaky, underhanded and damn ruthless but also charming and kind. It’s what makes him good at turning.
Aziraphale is just a regular Soho bookseller who loves his shop and books and good food and wine when he’s approached by a woman claiming to be MI5, wanting to recruit him for espionage. The poor man is too trusting and gets the shock of his life when he’s approached by a charming but dangerous-looking man also claiming to be MI5.
Crowley recruits Aziraphale to double cross a double crosser and Aziraphale takes to espionage like a duck to water.
Danger, hijinks, and sex ensue.

Summary
Anthony J Crowley, former face of Burberry, fashion editor of Hell Magazine, arbiter of cool, found himself perched at a small antique card table at the back of a cluttered bookshop, looking down at a tea pot and porcelain cups, milk jug and sugar bowl as if they were alien artefacts.
Or
Azir's family, of sound military stock, treated feelings a little like illnesses. They could be prevented, cured, but were certainly not to be shared.
Or
A human AU about what happens when a photoshoot in an atmospheric bookshop puts two men from different worlds together, and how long it takes them to bumble through the embarrassment of talking about Feelings (20+ chapters, it turns out).

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?
