Love in a Cold County by JoJo (PG-13)



Fandom: THE PROFESSIONALS
Pairing: Bodie/Doyle
Length: 8500 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] solosundance
Author Website: on AO3
Why this must be read: Oh, so many reasons you should go read this - even if you've read it a dozen times before *looks shifty* it'll still delight you all over again.

Firstly, JoJo's writing is always wonderful, littered with lovely images that she seems to almost throw in casually. And then there's the feel-good factor - the lads, separated over the Christmas time, being reunited in a surveillance op in an old farmhouse deep the snowy wilds of Cumberland. And if that isn't enough, JoJo gives us the glory that's Bodie with a beard, looking like 'a particularly disenchanted and sleep-deprived Italian fisherman'.

Now, how could you possibly want more than that? *g*

One of my absolute favourite Pros fics:: scampers off to reread:: Bodie in that beard is a thing of joy...
