Summary
Anthony J. Crowley, best selling author, has writer's block. He could blame the Accident, but deep down he knows his block started way before. He hasn't written anything in too long, if we choose to ignore the dozens of unsent letters addressed to the angel he lost two decades ago, when he moved to New York City.
When his best (and only) friend convinces him to take a little vacation in a small town in Connecticut, he expects peace and quiet. He doesn't expect to see the smile that still haunts his dreams again. Apparently, small towns are full of surprises, and how late is too late?The world stops spinning on its axis or, at the very least, Crowley stops breathing. This is absolutely impossible. He forces himself to swallow, to take a deep breath, as he doesn’t want to scare this girl off. Muriel, who is still smiling, all bright and wide and just like-
Oh, God. “A bookshop, you said?” He chokes out. This is impossible, and he’s being ridiculous. He is in London, this is just a sick coincidence and his stupid brain playing stupid games.
“Yes, you can see it if you turn around.” Crowley doesn’t move. “It’s called A. Z. Fell Books.”
Now, the world definitely stops spinning.Series

Summary
Two London snobs (accomplished professionals highly respected in their fields, thank you very much) are forced to stop and reconsider their life and career choices after a horrible summer. Strongly encouraged by their entourage to take a break and reconnect with nature, whatever that means, they find themselves on the same idyllic Scottish island by some strange twist of fate. New neighbours and temporary owners of two nearly identical cottages that are in desperate need of new plumbing and better kitchens, burned out actor Aziraphale and disgraced chef Crowley can’t stop running into each other.
Autumn on the Isle of Skye is rainy and lonely, and everyone needs some company. And if the company is so good that parting seems unbearable, it’s just part of the magic of the island, surely. Afterall, they only have one autumn.Series

Summary
It's Christmas at the Maldives, everyone.
(Well, it's a ten day Christmas wedding extravaganza at the Maldives.)
(Erm, well, it's the wedding of Aziraphale's brother, the homophobic bully who saw the light, and it would be just so embarrassing to show up without a date. Thankfully, Crowley is a lovely, lovely friend. This is what friends do, isn't it? No fuzzy feelings involved whatsoever.)
Pack your sun cream and your Christmas spirit, and get ready to party!
(Well. Remember to avoid the zumba class at all costs. And don't get your feelings in the mix. Piece of cake.)- Language:

Summary
Objectively speaking, Crowley is a good vampire: he doesn't hunt, he doesn't kill, he doesn't bother anyone else with his, erm, condition. He has an arrangement with a family of witches to keep him fed and, well, alive, and he likes spending his endless days alone and unbothered. Perhaps 'like' is too strong of a word, but he tolerates his existence, and it's enough.
Until he meets an angel under the rain. Suddenly, he finds himself wanting more, dreaming about blue eyes and sweet smiles, finding excuses upon excuses to see Aziraphale-like-the-angel, again. Just once more, as he tells himself every time. And it's never enough.
Meanwhile, the vampiric society he's a reluctant part of changes management, and demands more of Crowley: more details about his rather unorthodox methods, more proofs of his suspicious activities, more of himself than he's willing to give.
It's all a mess, really. But at the end of the day, aren't the greatest love stories supposed to be messy?- Language:
