Summary: He is Gerard, and she is also Rapunzel.

Review: I'm sure by this point I don't need to remind anybody of my love of all things warm, fuzzy, and domesticy(and yes I know the last of those is not an actual word). So it should be no surprise that this is another one of that type of fic.

In this case it is a  complete re-write of the Rapunzel myth. Starting with Gerard's birth and ending with hir living happily ever after with her prince and her prince's faithful squire.

What makes this such a lovely, lovely fic is that it is really a complete re-write. From the much less violent beginning to the tale, with Gothel cast as a holy woman, to Rapunzel's youth-ville adventures, to hir eventual romance every detail is rewritten to flow perfectly with the story. Without seeming strained by sticking to the more traditional bits. 

I'd recommend this story to anybody who loves to read fairy-tales. Since it can easily stand as an original retelling of the Rapunzel story, if you aren't familiar with the bandom elements.

Title: Irresistable
Fandom: Criminal Minds
Pairing: Aaran Hotchner/Spencer Reid, Reid/BAU, Reid/Blackwolf
Categories: Amnesia (not really), Creature/Wing, Drama, Family, Romance, Supernatural
Length: Long (~19,000 words)
Warnings: Promiscuous!Reid

Author on LJ: nebula99
Author's Website: FF.net But it's better if you just go to her livejournal, it's more complete. :)

Author's Summary: Part 1: Once you have one, you have to get the whole set.
Part 2: Be careful what you wish for . . .
part 3: "Tell me, Aaron Hotchner, do you believe in faeries?"
Part 4: Hotch placed the sword carefully on the table and turned to Reid. “When did I enter the Twilight Zone?” he asked, his voice gentle.

Review: I fell in love with this story from the very first paragraph. It's different from most of the other Criminal Minds fanfiction I've read with the supernatural twist nebula99 has put into it. She has wonderfully created this world that runs without our knowledge, the world of the Daoine Sidhe. You can just imagine her original characters being a part of the canon characters. Spencer was characterized beautifully both as the Spencer we all know and love and as Caomhin, half-faery.

Hotch and Spencer's relationship here is wonderfully crafted. I love how accepting Hotch is of Spencer's Faery nature, his promiscuousity and well, generally, everything Spencer. :)
