Phantoms by Charlotte Frost (NC-17)

Fandom: Starsky & Hutch
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Charlotte Frost

This novel holds a special place in my heart. Back in 1997, when I first starting reading Starsky & Hutch slash, this was one of the first zines I bought. I still have it today in my collection.

Why this must be read: Because I prefer novels to anthologies, this story grabbed my attention. It has all the great elements we love in Starsky & Hutch fandom: friendship, danger, intrigue, hurt/comfort (lots of that) and hot first time sex.

The premise is that Starsky & Hutch are undercover for a mob boss (who thinks they are lovers), when their cover is blown. Hutch is given a choice, go to bed willingly with the mob boss or see Starsky killed before his eyes. Hutch will do anything to save his friend, so he gos off with the guy. (Don't fear I wouldn't rec a rape story). Things happen...and in the end the boys are reunited and start to explore their feelings for one another. One of Charlotte's best novels, especially for those of you who love a good hurt/comfort piece.

Follow the links to the story, I've linked you to the title page:

I love this story, but it's got Marianne in it. I hate her to death, so this story was made much darker for me because she was in it. However, she needed to be in it because no other character could create the kind of feelings in the story like she could.
