"In the style of Dickens' Christmas Carol, Eric is shunted through his past, present and future Christmases. His task is to learn what they want to teach him. Considerable thought has been put into this by the author - the possible outcomes of the life Sookie and Eric can have together.
Most memorable scene - Sookie finds Eric on her kitchen floor being licked by Claude. Come on! You gotta read it now!" -- peppermintyrose
"Is a journey into a different, fantastic place. A surreal place where Sookie is as wild as a free fairy to love her eternal, perfect lover, Eric, in every conceivable way.
That, and this wonderful writer needs our support this difficult time for her." -- Kira Kiralina
"If you're looking for a good laugh, I cannot recommend this more highly. It is a pointed look at some recurring themes and jab at the problems in SVM/TB fanfiction. It is also the promotional fic for the Saint Eric contest, hosted by peppermintyrose." -- Miss Construed
"In this alternate universe, Sookie was raised in foster care rather than by her grandmother. After spending several years as an adult wandering the country and getting by on odd waitress jobs and the occasional casino run, she's returned to Bon Temps after learning she inherited Gran's house.
I am enjoying this story for the unique take on Sookie's character and the fantastic writing. Even though the first few chapters are just setting up this world, I'm on the edge of my seat. If you like smart stories that put a spin on CH's world, check this one out. " -- moxiemo
» Gone by Tradermare (Night Huntress)
"Based on the Night Huntress Series, this is a Bones POV of events from the end of Halfway to the Grave and One Foot in the Grave. Tradermare has really captured Bones' voice for me and I love her retelling of events while they were apart. She has done a brilliant job of filling in those 4 missing years." -- BonTempsCutie
"I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this story. It's my favorite category Romance / Humor. This story was continued from the Kiss A Cook contest. Eric has his own restaurant in central CA. Sookie is a food writer from the area where Eric has his restaurant but living in San Francisco bay area now. I am a foodie so I enjoy that. The Swedish chef references are killing me. Oh, and another favorite thing - Bill is a douche." -- Northwoman
"This is the 5th in the series about Eric and Sookie in New Zealand. It includes Homestay, Home for Christmas, Homecoming, Home Again and now Home is Where the Heart Is. The references and language are fascinating to me. The series starts with Eric coming to New Zealand from America as a consultant. He is not the typical Eric, other than being sexy. This Eric is needy and insecure; he has never really had anyone in his life, no real relationships of any kind including parents. Sookie is a widow with a toddler and a baby. She has had her own problem. I enjoy the realistic day to day life things, the growth of their relationship and the hilarity of the children." -- Northwoman
"This is one of the most unusual stories I've ever read by one of my favorite authors. It's a True Blood fic and picks up after the end of season 2. Not only is it beautifully written with lush description, the plot is very original. There's a demonic possession and a wicked curse. Bill's true intentions are revealed, and Eric and Sookie become unexpectedly united against the queen. If you've been hesitant to check out True Blood stories, I'd suggest starting here." -- moxiemo
"This is a story from a newer author and I just love everything she writes. It is a Suspense/Romance fic with Eric & Sookie. Eric is a special ops kind of guy -- sexy, smart, capable, badass - YUM, but he has lost his memory after being shot. But Sookie is taking care of him. They are on the run. This is suspenseful but fun. It looks like Bill is an evil douche in this one." -- Northwoman
"Sookie is a control freak, and has a best friend in Pam - Sookie is the classic girl who's 'always the bridesmaid, never the bride'. Then she's blindsided by attention from Eric Northman, a musician.
In a similar manner to the building of the Eric and Sookie relationship in the books, this Eric is popping up at random, pursuing Sookie who is both flattered and confused.
The consideration given to character in this fic is impressive. Characters are not designated to a 'slot' without thought to motivations - so Sookie's a quiet loner without need for telepathy to explain her lifestyle. Worth a read, definitely. " -- peppermintyrose
"Want to see how Eric became a Saint? Well you can. It's the vision of the perfect man we can all aspire will come into our lives one day, if only we were so lucky." -- St. Eric
» Three Graces and a Muse by FarDareisMai2 (Twilight)
"Work-in-Progress -- I fell in love with this Jasper, and although this Edward pissed me off, I love him too. Now I can't decide who Bella should choose. Beautifully written. Amazing characterization. A must read for readers of any fandom." -- Missus T
» We Used to Be a Love Story by GiveUsAKiss413 (Twilight)
"Completed Story. Completely different than anything else I've read. Broke my heart to pieces, but I couldn't wait to read more. Amazing piece of fanfiction." -- Missus T
